I lowered the air pressure the other day when I got rained out and must have raised it when I filled a tire. Thinking it was still at 50 lbs. I found it at 85 today. I must have gave it a little bump to speed things along there. The gun survived me disassembling it several times and is working well.
I'm using Majic paint and it flows well and has good coverage.

Looking good, Curtis!

Just got the second coat is on (even the white). Pics will follow in the a.m. I'm still needing to clean get equipment and myself cleaned up.

Here's the pics. I got a couple runs but may let them go. They are not to bad and in good places if I have to sport a couple runs. They didn't turn out in the pics. I will need to do the white again because it's to thin on the back side of a wheel. I dropped the ball with getting the seat welded but took it to bare metal and painted it anyway. It will get welded when I get to the deck. I'll wait to reshoot the white when I do the deck. The last shot is of a robin in a nest. I stuck the burlap sack up to keep it from any overspray. It's folks have gotten quite used to me but are camera shy.

I've made some progress. It pretty much fell together. I need to touch up the paint on the 3pt and several nuts/bolts. Next will be the engine.

That looks VERY nice!

Makes me want to start on my Original. Keep up the great work.:beerchug:

Excellent job, it's coming together nicely!
