Sorry sports fans, but it's been a long and boring few weeks of late.
The only thing even remotley bike related has been to get some wet-n-dry paper to do some more sanding on the frame and other bits prior to prepping for prinmer and then paint in the near future.
I have been on Face Ache, sorry, Face Book looking at different sites/profiles and "talking" with people such as Kawa, GBC and a few others such as Anth, Heidi, Alex George (yes, The Alex George) and Graeme Crosby (yep, it's him). Both real down to earth guys from the looks of it.
But now hat it's starting to warm up, it's time to get back out into the shed and getting Vicky ready for painting.
With that, I've had to come up with an idea for a collapsible, transportable paint booth. Basically it'll be four 4x4s with metal joist hangers set up so 2x4s can be inserted to make a square frame and then have plastic sheeting stapled or tacked in place on all sides and the top.
This whole contraption will be set up outdoors near the shed and all spraying can be done with plenty of natural light and minimal fear of overspray covering everything.
I think that'll do the job and be easy enough to knock together.
Until then.....

Maybe you can rig up a fan and some furnace filters in your "booth" and have a pretty deluxe setup. I've been thinking about some sort of knock down booth for doing my painting in. Keep us posted. Hairy Larry
ReplyDeleteThis'll just be something that can be set up, spraying gets done done and then taken apart when it's done. Don't want any unneeded notice or complaints from others who might get any ideas for the middle of the night.
