This thread will now serve as the sale thread. Please read the following:
- These will only sold as sets unless stated otherwise
- Price for 1 set is $26.06 including shipping and paypal fees for Goods&Services
- I will only sell what I have on hand ready to ship - No pre-orders, but I will take your name down on the list
- At this time, it will be 1 set per person as I am only able to produce so many sets a week. If you want multiple sets, I will add you to a separate list.
- If you break a piece accidentally during the process of working on it, I can replace the piece for a reduced cost, however I must be provided with evidence of this.
- I will post up any B pulls on the Junkyard section and may post here to inform you of it. The quality or issues will be detailed in those posts, and of course will be at a reduced cost due to flaws.
Important information about the castings: These are cast from 2 thermostats and have as close a likeness you can get in terms of accuracy. Due to the nature of the piece, the outer edge is quite thin. The resin is durable, but you must take considerable caution when looking to drill holes or add hardware when building your replica pieces. I leave a little but of the flashing on them as well, I would recommend leaving that on until AFTER you polish/shine the castings
Polishing: Folks have their techniques, but I usually start with 0000 Steel wool, and once I get an initial reveal of the metal sheen, I will take aluminum polish (Like Mother's from an auto store) and do several passes. The realistic shine is quite easy to achieve but takes some elbow grease to make it happen. Again, be cognizent that the outer rim is the thinnest part of the cast and to avoid putting too much stress on them when polishing.
