Broke my vows-----------------

big tee · Dec 29, 2020

When I built my shop 22 years ago I vowed never to do any major painting in it but I am putting different wheels and tires on my 1900 and the weather is crappy outside so I have a makeshift paint booth by the door thanks to a industrial strength Harbor Freight tarp and a $15 window fan. Never again???---Tee

putting a very thin primer mix on the inside using my spinner--It make a painter out of anybody! will paint outsides of rims this afternoon....

Thats minor painting, vows intact

You could be like me and paint outside gives a lovely texture to the paint 😂

Don't want to sound ignorant, but have to ask, what is that, what does it do?

Holds rims by the lug holes and you can rotate it so your always spraying in a comfy position.

In the warm weather I wait until the bugs die on the paint and pick them off with a tweezers when the paint dries--Loren and I call it our CBS paint booth--Clear Blue Sky---Tee

It is a machine I built 30 years ago to cut rims apart with the plasma and widen them and weld them backs together--It runs with a hydro motor for variable speed. It works good when you paint with it too--rotates 2-3 rpm so you never get a run.---Tee

finished rim for an Oliver

It has a 9 bold hub for widening 9 bolts so had to make an adaptor for my 1900 open center rims when I widened them this month--so I bolted my front rims to the adapter with long 1/2 in bolts for painting...

thats called a distressed finish... it costs extra, ask any cabinet maker..

That’s how all my painting gets done maybe someday I’ll have a heated indoor dust proof room 😂😂
