Coast to Coast
Yeah, when I did my last tank, I just put on some nice thick coats, and that stuff works magic. Well now you know, and confirmed what I had heard. Good progress either way
Sweet I was wondering if it was that easy, and I want to get a nice clean paint job in those crannies. Thank frogman will do. I want to put the latch setup of my 360 tank on it but then the 360 tank would be worthless.frogman said:That latch should come off with a Philips screw driver, there is a screw that that is hidden on the left side of it. The cap is just held on by a pin and you can knock it out with a nail or small punch. When you are done just drive the pin back in and mushroom the end again.
I dont know what size exactly but like the typical brass netting like they use for front drums. Like a screen door. But I need just a piece about 10'' by 10'' and thats about it. Thanks for your help again frogmanfrogman said:What type/size are you looking for?
Ohh Hobby Lobby never thought of that, I might be able to stop by there today and see if they have any. I wouldnt mind buying a big roll of it, if it was like 10-20 bucks. Never thought of using the word mesh eiether, Mesh/screening/netting. Thanks frogman, You live in Ok right? I saw a cafe ( not saying it was you) on the road right before my house, which is super rare to see anything let alone a cafe, and they are all in the city anyways. I have seen a good 5 cafes now in OKC which is awesome because I am not that far from OKC.frogman said:Hardware stores around here sell similar stuff like that, used for screen door protection from animals scratching on it. Then there is Hobby Lobby and the like. May PM troybuilt see where he got his from when did the accents on willow. I'll do some looking around the internets, using the word MESH is another good way to find it.
Yea I have seen that a lot and does make sense, but from the first day I bought the tank I told myself if I was going to cut into to it, I am changind the back top. I like the style of the enlongated rectagular tanks and decided to modifiy this one. The knee dents looked good just wasnt right looking, from the top it looked too radical.RoseCityCafePunk138 said:It looks like you were going for hammered knee dents at first then switched obviously to cut out/re-weld. Any reason? I've also heard that cut out/re-weld can be done by simply cutting out the left side and welding it on the right. Just heard it though, makes sense.
