Popular Post Stellaghost Posted July 20, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 20, 2021 Off topic but whilst machining this I filled in the spaceduring cuts by refurbishing our small multi fuel stove First off about 3 hours with a needle gun getting rid of enamel coating then a good rotary wire brush finally painted with matt black stove paint will refit glass and seals once paint has hardened off overnight, so if you have one with chipped enamel don't bin it because it can look good again regards Stephen 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Poore Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 My "This mornings project" has slightly less metal work involved, time for a second coat in the workshop. Annoyingly I have been lent an airless sprayer but despite thinning stuff down to 50% the nozzle kept plugging so gave up and went old school with a brush because it was all that was available.

Gazzar Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 I'd like a mill. But I've NO TIME to fix my lathe, so I'm not even looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Poore Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Rollers are a wee bit faster than brushes, think one more coat tomorrow should see it finished. Then try and whizz through the first floor so I can move tools into it. Shifting the mill should be good fun... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
