Nicely done, but yes, I guessed what the solution was before reading. I'm glad to see you using clamps on your drill press. Many people cant be bothered and that's a good route for an accident. Before gluing the parts together, varnish the inside of the holes and let it dry. By doing this, if any glue seeps into the area around the nails, it will not stain the wood and it will be easier to clean.

This is a very nice build and certainly has the appearance of "early days motorcycles".I'm not sure that the disc brakes are really sturdy enough for a machine that can do 50MPH (80 Km) and I think I would want something 'beefier' to handle the heat generated when braking from high speed. However, as a many decades long motorcyclist, the point that gives me the most concern from your video (and I've observed it with may motorcyclists on the road, is the lack of safety clothing. Even at lower speeds, when the rider parts company with his/her machine, elbows and knees can get ground down to the bone in seconds and the feet can get shattered very easily.Always wear full protective clothing and boots when riding, even for a short test run.

The jacket needs highly reflective markers on the back because automobile drivers often don't notice the small outline of a motorcyclist and even if they do, they sometimes don't give them the space they should.As far as your build goes... WELL DONE.

... And I love hard cider

Although most beer bottles are twist-off now, since I have a couple of dozen old railroad spikes, I might make a couple of these. Nice Job
