    Been doing some powder coating lately

    05-02-2012 10:31 AM #1
    Got myself setup for doing some powder coating, been playing around a little, but here are the results.... The oven is 65"x30"x24" so I can fit a lot of larger parts in there.... I think these turned out awesome, But I might be biased.

    I'm glad you are back Brent looks like good things are happening at your shop. Did you ever finish the V-8 swap into that 90?

    Turn around time depends on the prep work needed, and also if I have the color you want in stock. I have to get my big blast cabinette down before I can blast wheels... SO i guess that means it depends on what you want done. Valve covers and colors I have on hand can be done in a day or two. wheels, will need a little more lead time, at least unitl I get my large blast cabinette out of storage.

    Well, the parts I want are important for my car to run. Hmmm. haha I want the motor mounts and upper intercooler pipe done for my car. I assume I can just get you the mounts when I order my new ones. But the IC pipe is a different story.

    Cool! Once I finish converting my milling machine to CNC, I plan on building a pc oven for myself. I'm thinking about the same size you have there, maybe a bit taller.
