What did you work on today.
« on: March 31, 2013, 08:20:08 AM »
I polished my new Stainless steel alt.bracket. That I had cut out on a water jet machine.Thanks to Tom for his blue print. And I put it all together.
It fit like a glove. A tight glove. But works like a champ. Thanks Tom. It was such a good day. I backed the hot rod and started to clean.

Don,
Glad it fit for you.  Moose is right we got to see pics of it when you have it all polished.
Haven't worked on anything yet.  Easter dinner is at noon so when everyone leaves I may sneak out into the garage.  I'm working on rumble seat pivot brackets.
Tom

Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

Got home sunday 6:30. With a fat belly full of food. Went out to garage and took my winter project apart. To do sum painting. I have been building a six post delivery express wagon body. I got most of the bottom part done. Four coats on the floor. Steel wool between coats.
Two coats of paint steel wool between coats. And I took photos this time so Moose can't rag on me. And Ill take sum photos. Of the alt.bracket when I can take my car off the lift. Then that Moose will be sorry he picked on an OLD MAN.

Here you go Moose the photos you wanted. My friend came over with this piece he machined. I rounded the corners and took out all the saw marks. Rounded the edges and polished the edges. Then give it a clear coat. That was my good deed for the day. My planishing hammer stand came from H.F. .So I put it together. I will use this for a stand for my powered bead roller. Also done more painting on my winter project.

That's a nice clean looking bracket. Looks like you did a great job on the engine turned piece too. My compliments on the craftsmanship and THE PICTURES!
