Yes chris please do this,,some good close up shots would be fantastic,,,this question has become a common thing and would fit perfect in the FAQ section of the site.. Gabe's article he did was great but i do agree it is kinda hard to see,,I guess with the frame being black it makes it even more difficult..

Everything looked good on gabe's site.
It seemed pretty easy to see to me as long as you know the outline of the frame and what everything is and does.
Im sending my frame off to timmy boy also to reinforce and While he has it, to go ahead and powdercoat it (I would send it to CW, but I'd then have to pay another $50-60 in shipping).
I should be able to post pics of his work, but It will take quite some time!
