Very cool stuff indeed. I really like the lamps and the clocks. And double congratulations on the incoming child!

What kind of paint did you use on your engine?hallin222 said:Knowing I had lots of parts to strip and re-paint on this project, I invested in a cheap Harbor Frieght sandblast cabinet and went to town. I few other friends have build projects going on too, so I knew it'd get used enough to justify the expense. Lucky, wifey is pretty accepting of tool purchases, seeing them as long-term moeny savers, allowing me to do more myself, rather than paying others to do it for me.
Just some of the parts that got sanded and/or blasted and re-painted:
This engine is actually from another parts bike I picked up for free, if I remember correctly. It's from a 1980 KZ750G, and looked to be in better shape than the 'B' model's gas burner. I had it running on one cylinde prior to cleaning the carbs and acquiring a new coil, so I'm confident it will serve me well.
Just some high temp engine paint from my local auto parts store. Maybe it was the PJ1 VHT stuff in satin black. I forget exactly. Sorry.Fab 5 Freddy said:What kind of paint did you use on your engine?
