  Today I found a piece of scrap aluminum and made a corona ring to try out .
    My new oven came in today , Needs a little work !!    And I did blast a few casting .

Thanks for the tour last week.
I dumpster dove some 1/32" thick teflon for you today at work. That will probably be much better for under spool washers than the 1/8 I left with you last week.
I will keep an eye out for 1/16 as well.
This painting post is awesome. Looking forward to seeing more.

Still waiting on some parts for the oven , to use as a electric oven .  I have been using it with propane to out gas castings  . 
I did cook up some Ka -chow today, this has a lot of shine /glitter .  This is without a clear coat which makes it pop more .

The post and results show that you are really in to it and are thoroughly enjoying the powder coat process.

Be careful not to let it turn into a job and keep it your hobby.

I hate to see you lose the enjoyment aspect.

Great work!  :d

They came out looking really nice when decorated with their emblems and all assembled.
