This is a great post!!!

 

This was your answer to a question regarding you Satoshi grill:

"just epoxy them in as close to flush as you can, then sand until the surfaces are even. doesn't have to be perfect 'cause the finishing putty will blend the seam, but the smoother you get it with the sanding step, the less putty you'll need later"

So you sanded before you used the putty as well? And if so what grit sand paper did you use?

Great write up by the way!

yep, sanded before and after applying the putty. i went with a 320 grit for the plastic and the start of the putty sanding, then finished off the blending of the putty to the plastic with 400 grit.

 

Has anyone also redone the triangle pieces on each side of the grill? From some of the pictures in here, it looks like they could easily be cut out from the back side but I just wondered if anybody had done that and possibly taken pictures.

 

Don't have any pictures but you are correct. Just cut the back side off along the seam that's around the triangle piece and attach your metal.

 

Awesome. I really like this mod and think Ill get a chance to try it on mine in another month or two, but if Im going to take the time, Im going to do it right and get the triangles as well.

Finding these forums has been bittersweet since I got my Taco about a month ago, wealth of information, but I think I already have a list of projects that will take me well into next year to complete.

 

i hear ya. welcome to tw!

 

it been done gotta look on the other satoshi

 

DAMNT!!!!!!! wish i would have seen this thread sooner, i already threw the center piece i cut out away. Can i just use any plastic and epoxy it to the grill?

What are you looking for, specifically?

 

If I had to guess, I think he's talking about the two smaller triangular areas on each side of the grill.
