With all parts powder coated, today I reassembled the Tender frame and trucks.I’m really pleased with the powder coating! Kim
You might want to use 303SS instead.
Happy to see those brass slotted screws were just temporary. A floor mounted vertical bandsaw is really a necessity for metalwork. You still have throat limitations on really large pieces, but they're a really useful piece of equipment.I painted the Joy engine with automotive enamel and an airbrush, then the Muncaster with powder. Both do a much better job than rattle can paint. The advantage of powder is elimination of drips as well as hardness.
