My old man is working on a Brunswick Gold Crown for a guy and wanted to convert the corners and feet to a high gloss black instead of the silver. He gave them to me to powder coat but I couldn't get the impurities to stop coming out of the metal. I decided that I would shoot the with base/clear. Need to wet sand them to get that orange peel out. Hopefully they will look like a mirror when I'm done.

Delivered Anniversary
Well I finally finished the Anniversary that I was working on. My brother and I installed it this weekend in North Jersey for a customer. The table looked spectacular in the purpose built room. You'll have to excuse the junk photos. I woke up at 5 am to install it and forgot the camera.

Anniversary Castings
Started polishing the corner castings. There is some heavy pitting that I'm trying to work through but you have to remember this table is 75 years old, its going to have some character marks, thats part of the nostalgia.
Anniversary Legs Finished
Finished the legs last night. The final step was to wrap the bottom with brushed aluminum. Super pleased with the results.
