Busy day yesterday at the shop with yet more pieces finished off. After restoring the shovel, pick axe helve and crowbar, the pick axe head looked out of place so it got a good sandblasting, priming and painting!
The hardware on top of the crew locker is now done. Just have to decide to wait until spring and sandblast the crewlocker or take it in now and pay somebody to do it? Wood inserts for the smoke generator box are cut and installed. I’m not too concerned about painting all the items as the whole carrier will need repainting once I’m done restoring and mounting all the items.
