Ok group I was feeling like using my welder. I just took an old Murry frame (gas pipe) and cut the rear stays half way down and the drop outs off. I took some rear stays from a BMX bike. I welded it all together and bent it all in to work with a single speed. I then extended the fork to fit 27" rims. I just took it out for a ride it is the uglies bike anyone has ever seen. The frames were free, the rims cost me $1.00 at a yard sale so now I have a single speed that no one will touch for $1.00 if anyone wants to see my monstrosity email me. Lots of the old junk I welded on it is within our timeline . I think it is the funnies thing I have ever built. I also just finished a human form sculpture out of misc bike parts it is life sized if you want to see that email as well.
