JDMCQ's Garage

super busy up here if you dont work for the unions

 

Motivation for me!!!!!!!!!!

Looks great! I am gonna do the same Wednesday.... just gonna bedline it. I hate the chrome look!

 

looks so much better then the polished aluminum

 

hey jag, save yourself a lot of effort and use a wire brush instead of scotch brite pads or sand paper. works 500% better. i sanded the lid of the box with a sand paper foam block and it took forever and still needed to be sanded around each checker. i used a wire brush and had the whole box completely sanded in about 45 minutes (not a single bit of polished alum left) it gets around each checker easily

 

Sweet! Thanks for the tip!

 

no prob! will make your life a lot easier

 

Are you gonna put anything were the kobalt logo was.... Like a decal or plaque? i am thinking about having one of my dad's cnc guys make something....


Shoot me an idea and he can make one for the both of us....

 

with the pic you cant tell but the kobalt logo has a bit of dimension to it and looks ok.

putting something else there would be cool though!

 

yeah no rush... just let me know.

I am gonna try to think of somethin'. I am pretty sure the logo was riveted to the box. I might drill it out remove it and bedline over the holes.

 

ya its a flimsy plate, kinda felt like plastic. four rivets hold it in place and would be easy to remove

 

thanks susan
