Much better in natural light..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricktate Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 OOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY those are pretty...................what was the clear coat you used? You should sell that grill kit ....I tried to mock that up on mine and decided it was to much trouble and could not decide on the angles for the dog house. How did you sand the A part of dog house so well?? I spent days trying to sand next to that flat piece where the angle meets the back straight piece and back deep where your hand hardly fits.. I finally said that's good enough and went with it. lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of work... 37 minutes ago, ricktate said: angles for the dog house. Measure 11 inches in from the front leading corner of horn. That is where your back stop goes to create a perfect triangle. 39 minutes ago, ricktate said: How did you sand the A part of dog house so well?? ryobi detail sander. You actually have to grind off about 1/8th inch of the outside corners of the triangle head to get it to fit. Makes life MUCH more bearable 38 minutes ago, ricktate said: Can Bob still get the GE caps ????? I thought he said he was unable to get them before. I got some for my Ks long time ago. Nope, this may very well be the last of a "fresh" set around. They have never been used but still are 10 years old. Bob told me they DO have a shelf life and the clock is ticking? Going on that, a good 10-15 years of life left in the fantastic G.E. motor run caps. Whew! Matt ♪ ♫ ♪ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 7 hours ago, Matthews said: My superstitious tendencies won't allow me to like your comment, Sir Mung. gloaming = twilight (and not the movies...) Great time to shoot, as well as heavy overcast or open shade (without a bright background) btw, very nice finish... Bruce 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
