Thread: Overlay / shrouds over powdercoat?

    hehe...this guy is awesome.

    Bare brass..lol....is easy to find here in most of those places in 1.5 by 6" lengths. I've trying sanding down 1.25 chrome before but it lost it's OD for fitting in MHS so I scrapped it and the overall design ended up looking great with chrome.

    I found places to order brass but yeah it's pricey...roughly $20 plus tax shipping duty and the time...maybe on another project.

    For this project I'm using powdercoating, so I wanna keep my sinktube cost down. I told Tim that I wanted the MHS turned down to compensate for thickness of the PC. Hopefully that will simplify things and get me back on track.

    So, if you powdercoat the MHS sleeve, AND the mhs piece, the sleeve will still slide on correct? Just wanting to be clear...

    I feel you about Walmart. Here's Walmarts symbol and The Empires. Coincidence, I think not.

    nope, sinktube and MHS sleeve over powder coated MHS. I'm trying to make sure they'll fit and may have to have the MHS they go over turned down.

    I have put sinktube on MHS before too but nothing relating to powdercoat.
