frogvalley Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 We went with purple as a final color, with silver trim and drive components. Purple power hammer sounds a bit rude, but there you have it. After a three year project, buying, moving it 300 miles, building an addition to house it, digging a five foot deep foundation, moving the machine inside, cleaning and repainting and this week setting her on her new concrete its been a very long road. Attached is a before and after pic. Soon... Quote

ThomasPowers Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 Just take care that it doesn't become a "Purple People Eater"! My Champion is going to be whatever colour the industrial paint I bought at the Restore turns out to be. Quote
bajajoaquin Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 We once made a set of fabrication tables for a place I worked. They were steel frames on heavy-duty locking casters, designed to take a 4X8 sheet of 1.25" MDF that could be easily replaced every year. We powdercoated them on the cheap by using whatever powder had missed the metal on other products, and ended up on the floor! We were only charged labor for the job, and not materials. They turned out some sort of weird mottled grey-brown..... Quote

ThomasPowers Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 Hey I'd love it to be Fuchsia! I wanted it Case Tractor Red till I found out how much a gallon of implement paint would cost around here...My late grandfather had the first Case Dealership in AR back in the day... Quote
