Well you win some you lose some. What's a project without any setbacks?
I went to collect my frame from the powdercoater today and as soon as I saw it I thought "fuck". I ordered about 20 samples from the powder vendor, thought I'd gotten one that looked like the right one and its just not it. The color is too flat, too orange and just not it. I should have had them shoot a sample card first, worst case I'm out the cost of the powder for the job. They're going to strip and repaint it for me, at my cost of course. I'll have it back in 2-3 weeks I hope.
