Thanks for the call to arms Nomadmax!

Handmade, welcome to the forum and wonderful bike! I have your bike's sister.

My neck casting does look different than yours - I have a flat section on the bottom but not on the top.

Here is a photo my neck section that you can zoom in on, if you need other pic let me know.

I've never seen one with a flat section on top.

What is your question/suspicion?
