    how do you guys go about doin big stuff like rims and frames. do you hang em or lay them flat? do half, bake then the other half?

    Re: big project how toos

    Best thing I did when I first started was to maximize my oven space is build a small frame that i could hang the part in. It was a pain to coat some pieces, but no other way could I have utilized the space better than with out it... At the time I didn't have a welder so that was a pop riveted frame made out of 1" aluminum angle. Hung everything from stainless steel safety wire.

        brad , when i do wheels i take safety wire and wrap around the inside dish part of the wheel and make a look and hange it from a hook . then hang it up , then just coat both sides and cook .

          We do the same but use a chain instead of wire

            thats what i was thinking! ...yeah, my oven is plenty big enough (thanks to ted @ teds fabrication. oh by the way ted, we DID have to cut out my wall and make the shop bigger. that thing is HUGE!! lol) i want to do it all at once (RIMS/FRAMES) and thats what i was thinking about tie'n em up, but i didnt want any wire touching where i have to paint @.


            like i said, it never hurt to get diffrent ideas and you guy just are full of em!!
