kinda off topic for a second, but oldrodder mentioned he used por 15 on his project on the last page...does anyone know what kind of temperatures it needs to be sprayed at?

Don- as with many others on here have said, this is the first thread I check evertime I get on. It has been fun following your thread and I'm sad to see it ending, but now you have one hell of a nice rod and we at least have a few other build threads to follow when yours ends. good luck with it!
