I sit corrected; a lawn CAR it most certainly is! Neat old beastie. Learn something new every day around here.

I just powder coated a traddle sewing machine frame that my
customer is going to make into a coffee table. I posted a pic
of one of the end panel's and will post the finished product when
he's done.

I just noticed that without even realizing it I coated something odd. The light bulbs in my booth . I removed the covers today to clean them and noticed the bulbs now have every color I have sprayed. They look nasty- Anyone else ever look at their lights after coating? Seems simple enough but easy to overlook.

Customsound--- Can't wait to see it, sounds cool and fun (parade use?)

i should be caught up on my polishing in a few day's i will start to tear it done and sand blast it ... no prade's for it ... atleast not yet .... now do you know if the seal's from a 5 hp brigg's will hold up to the oven for 25 minutes so i can get the block to cure?

im gonna go out on a limb here...i think the gasket will hold...but its sure gonna smoke like hell...

Customsound-- Disassemble the motor, it will seep oil the whole time you are working with it. Briggs motors are very simple to take apart and reassemble. Gaskets are cheap, plus you can clean it.Over time the verticle shaft Briggs motors build up carbon on the piston skirt and will start to rattle or knock.The entire motor only has about 30 bolts.Plus this will allow multiple colors.

The sewing machine frame looks nice-- job well done. I like the table idea.

The weirdest thing I've done was a set of stove top burners in ceramic chrome.

i was wondering about that .. i never tore one down before .. while it is tore down i can toss a cam in it from a jr drag motor ...

[DALE]

You might want to check more on the cam- JR dagsters use horizontal shaft motors, yours is vertical ( they might be the same)

I just posted inthe album 2 new photos of a wall hanging done in wrinkle black. Kinda out of the norm.
