Just how my resto is going

[kahonwes]

Well the coin door and cabnet door are off to paint.  most of the parts have been ordered, and now i'm just finishing up sandblasting the outer tub of my vendo 44 machine.

i got a few holes to deal with, a friend of mine is going to show me how to solder metal plates in the sides to fill the hole so i dont warp the machine when patching the holes, i cant wait.  the bottom inner pan is being cut out and spot welded in soon and then its off to paint.

i found the hammer finish silver paint at home depot, i must say it makes a nice shade of gray, so i decided to paint the cooler tub with it, i dont feel like taking apart the inner tub and painting it...

i cant wait.... soon as the machine is back from paint i'm going to start assembling it piece by piece then work on the compressor.
