I will try to take better pics if the sun ever comes out.
Heath, you sent that crappy weather here. I didn't order any of it. LOL

The rest of the parts are gloss black. I'll post pictures later today.

PS: Don't tell the wife the frame was on the kitchen table.

Picture is crap, not enough light.
I'm not sure how the red plastics will look on it, but they will have to do for now.

I can't catch a break.
I started re assembling and found out since I gusseted the frame I can't bolt up the rear RATH heel guard to the frame. The gusset is now blocking it.

I wonder if Rath makes a longer extension.

Now you got me thinking translucent over veins............ cool. Lolly pop blue........ sounds like your buying from Caswell. There good have you tried Columbia Coatings. That stuff looks great. As soon as my frame and stuff get back from DC I'll get powder coating myself.

yea i bought about 6 colors from caswells then ran out of super wet black and started shopping around. just bought about 10 pounda from roseys. they had their black on sale for 5 bucks a pound so i bought 3 and they sent me a fourth free. man this powder coating is addictive. now i got to build me a oven big enough to do frames.

Them flames look cool I haven't tried that yet. If your going to build a oven join the Casswell Platting chat forum and talk to those boys that's how I did mine. I made mine out of a old cabinet and two old ovens.. What I like about mine is I used a barn door track on top and hang the part from it. While the ovens on I spray it, open the doors and roll it in. And then just open the one door a little and shot the temp gun in and when the parts at 400 set the timer. This is a LEM mini frame Columbia Chrome base with a Green top coat.

QJ,

Yes, thats the new RPM axle powder coated. I think it's gonna look great when it's back together. The cases are getting PC'd now.

I like that seat. And the color:D

It's gonna be great meeting you guys and gals in AZ. That is if I can get this thing back together.
