adammubu 0 Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Over the last few days i've had some spare time. So, nipped off to BnQ to get some sheet material. Still needs alot doing to it. Paint job, strap putting on and obviously catches on the front of the lids. But here it is in its raw state. (It is by no means perfect, and there are a couple of mistakes made, but I am pleased with it.) http://s1080.photobucket.com/albums/j329/adammubu/?action=view¤t=IMG_2666.jpg http://s1080.photobucket.com/albums/j329/adammubu/?action=view¤t=IMG_2666.jpg#!oZZ2QQcurrentZZhttp%3A%2F%2Fs1080.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fj329%2Fadammubu%2F%3Faction%3Dview%26current%3DIMG_2665.jpg http://s1080.photobucket.com/albums/j329/adammubu/?action=view¤t=IMG_2666.jpg#!oZZ3QQcurrentZZhttp%3A%2F%2Fs1080.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fj329%2Fadammubu%2F%3Faction%3Dview%26current%3DIMG_2664.jpg http://s1080.photobucket.com/albums/j329/adammubu/?action=view¤t=IMG_2666.jpg#!oZZ4QQcurrentZZhttp%3A%2F%2Fs1080.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fj329%2Fadammubu%2F%3Faction%3Dview%26current%3DIMG_2663.jpg http://s1080.photobucket.com/albums/j329/adammubu/?action=view¤t=IMG_2666.jpg#!oZZ5QQcurrentZZhttp%3A%2F%2Fs1080.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fj329%2Fadammubu%2F%3Faction%3Dview%26current%3DIMG_2662.jpg P.S, The brown thing on the top is where a bit of material ripped ATB, Adam.

the_stig 6,614 Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 good effort -- mind that damage on the lid would do my head in i`d have to change it .. put some photos up of the finished job -- my mates lad did one last year painted it camo instead of wood stain ... Quote Link to post
adammubu 0 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Thanks everyone for the advice And, I was thinking of painting it differently. My dads got a spray paint gun thing, so I could use it to my advantage. We shall see. ATB, Adam. Quote Link to post
