Pete (or any moderator) Why are the pics showing up as links instead of pictures?

Matt (mbaskett) switched it from automatically opening attached pictures to the links to help with performance. We will be going through a server upgrade hopefully soon which should alieviate the problem. After that we'll most likely go back to automatically opening pictures. Sorry about any inconvience in the meantime.

Lo aka chetta

Actually I am using Harbor Freight's cheap buffs, and some of their cheap polishes. I have some good (small) buffs on order from eastwood (to get into the tight spots). Once it is all assembled, I will hit it with some mothers, and maybe some sort of sealer.

The real work is in the prep of the metal for the polishing. You have to wetsand with progresively finer grits. I also had lots of dings in the runners i had to take out.

Thanks for the kind words!!!
