Project Tonka - Blast and Paint

All the body work is complete and I spent an afternoon pulling everything apart ready for the sandblaster. Because the client had decided on stainless spokes I ended up cutting the rusted old ones to make removing the hubs easier.

Project Tonka - Blast and Paint




All the body work is complete and I spent an afternoon pulling everything apart ready for the sandblaster. Because the client had decided on stainless spokes I ended up cutting the rusted old ones to make removing the hubs easier. It also meant that I could get a really clean finish by pulling the hubs completely apart.

The shock also needed some TLC so I decompressed it and removed the spring and send that off for powder. Decided on a yellow spring to match the new gold chain we'll be running.

Everything came out really nice so I'll be looking forward to getting it all back together. I'm just waiting on a few more parts to arrive for the forks before I can start.

While the Switch has been for sale we've had a few enquires for some of the parts we've used. Have just created a small shelf of small pieces that can help with a tracker build and what we had used.
