A correct grip on the butt & cheekweld is imperative for accurate shooting. :crazy: :lol:

At last….finally, finally, Christmas came early today…..after wasting weeks and weeks since they were dropped into the local bead blaster on the 18th of August for him to clean off and take to the Powder Coaters, I finally got the cleaned bits back and dropped them into Mick At Warwickshire Vapour Blasting last Friday to clean off the remaining bits and Cerakote them. “Should have them done next week”

Phone call this morning….. your bits are ready!

Just back…. Beautiful, lovely bit of work and he cleaned the rusty Spondon discs up too, the disc carriers had been painted gold with the calipers when they were being re-built but I’ve since discovered that that wasn’t a good idea…so they were stripped off and cerakoted too.

Lovely…

Yeah, I know there’s only one of the brake and clutch masters on a bike but I’ve been grabbing them on eBay as and when over the years as they’re unobtainium new now. :lol:
Cheers

The disc carriers were stripped back and cerakoted silver after I found out that paint wasn’t desirable on brake components :lolno:
