You got that right Don; Down here in florida all you have to do is blink and a spot of rust will appear. I don't know how many times I have cleaned rust off my frame that I am working on. It's looking good to bad you guys had to ruin a good chain by painting it.
But if you want to sell them cheap I'll be happy to help you out of them, Oh I mean buy them ruined chains from you. HE! HE! HE! Just kidding Don, It's looking very nice.

Great stuff Don, Your right about it being a big milestone, looks like i might well get my ride later this year
One thing though, I notice Dan is spraying without covering his flesh
I know its outside but 2 pack is pretty horrible stuff so tell Dan to throw on some paper overhalls, Its cheap protection.
Looking forward to seeing you all again real soon.Its aweful lonesome in the saddle since my horse died.

Thanks guys. Whiplash, you are right about animals, I have a soft spot for them. I really feel sorry for the little ones who are left to fend for themselves outside. This newest "family" consists of 3 of them who come by every night to get supper, the little kitten is the newest adddition. Sometimes we have as many as 5 or 6. They are getting more used to us and I am almost within petting range now.
Kurt, I agree about the benefit of getting rid of all that bare metal. The humidity here has been brutal and rust spots start popping up in places we haven't even been near. Getting epoxy primer on these pieces will make it much better.
Steve, very interesting thought about the overspray not being great for you. We have hooded paper suits but we didn't wear them, or plastic gloves, because it was just so hot and you sweat immediately with them on. However, Dan didn't feel that great that evening and couldn't figure out what was causing it............maybe you are on to something. He had overspray on his arms that he had to remove with lacquer thinner. You may have provided the reason. I'll make sure he is covered well next batch. Thanks for mentioning that.
Don
