Project Gas Cap almost done ready for powder coat GLOSS BLACK. Also cut a paint saver ring to help protect the paint and set off the Black Cap...:2thumbs:


Cut this out of 1/8th" plate got it down to .028 at the edge just need to finish polishing it up and put it all back together.

Very cool, nice lathe work.

I kind of like the contrast of the cap polished rather than black.

Yeah that would take a CNC Mill, Tri Start and Tri Bar would sell for sure. J&P has Tri bar's for HD I thought about buying one just to see if I could take it apart and machine the end to fit our threaded insert... If someone wants to buy one and send it to me.......
