Progress report: THe Osbourne punch arrived today, and I punched the first two rows of skirt plates. I now have a newfound respect for those Zammers who have made the skirt.
Ow.
I also had a paint fail on four pieces due to cold temperatures in my shop; the silver undercoat (spray) cracked while drying, and was clumping too. Rats. I will sand them back down and start over. It was toe caps and hand plates. I may have to make a paint booth inside the house to help speed this up. I can't wait for our latest snow storm to go away.
Paint brand recommendations for the silver and black undercoats?? Krylon? Rustoleum? Doesn't make any difference?
