Debonaire FINI!

[Terry Plata]

Done, Whew! This one had a broken neck, shattered oscillator, worn gears, etc. But my wife picked it out "you can fix it"

Your wife has a great eye!!! Excellent work!!!

That is cool beans.  In the event you would want to cheat chrome plate pricing for the guard, this Prismatic powder coat in the link below along with its recommended clear coat gets darn close to it.

Thanks Russ! Now THAT is cool seeing the patent drawings. And I can see several applications for that Prismatic powder coating.  I wonder if my local powder coat guy can do that? Or I could just bake it in my wife's kitchen oven. That would go over just great. Hey, It's HER fan after all!

Go talk to a local REPUTABLE powder coater and tell him you're finishing a gift for your loving wife, get down on your knees and beg him to please help you shoot the guard. Tell him you can't afford an air conditioner and you want your loving wife comfortable.  Wear some old holey jeans and a dirty T shirt and tell him all you have is a bag of potatoes and $20 bill until next pay period. Good luck!

You will need this clear vision powder for the second shoot over the chrome powder.  CLEAR VISION | PPS-2974 | Prismatic Powders

Wow, if I ever need lessons on groveling you are a professional. ha ha

I could even drive an old pickup truck and use some of that black chewing gum to blank off a few teeth. How am I doing?

That's the spirit! Sounds like a free powder coat job for sure!  Tell him you have 30 years in wheel barreling failed castings to a furnace at a foundry with no ventilation.

Russ, what is the patent number on that Debonaire? I would like to print a copy.

Thanks,
