Looking forward to having the time to put the GW back together over the long holiday weekend, I’m getting curious to see if that thing is going to work like it should. The red color on the shroud is ITC 213 ceramic coating for metal I found these products (used all 3) ITC 296A ITC100HT while looking for a rigitizer for the Kaowool we’ll see. Cost to date is around $500 because I scrounged a lot of the materials. There was a lot of shop time because of the limited metal working tools I have, for instance this job took about 20 mini grinder cutoff wheels run to nub to cut almost everything by hand. I don’t think I saved much by using salvaged steel from all the time it took to clean it up. If I don’t need anything special I should have this thing up and running by Sunday.
