Blasted Lovat

Post by RadDavis »

Hi guys,

I got a really nice blast on a lovat yesterday, and I thought I'd share my excitement. Pics are in my gallery:

I can't seem to figure out how to put a pic in my post. :oops:

The blast is spectacular. I have *got* to get my new workshop wired so that I run my blasting cabinets again. My favorite finish of all, and I can't do it right now. :cry:

Wow, you're right! That's awesome! One of the nicest blasts I've seen, Rad! Your stain and finish really sets it off too. I love seeing the grain so well through the blast. Very nicely executed. I'm really hoping to get a blast rig set up, but something tells me I won't see anything like this for a while :wink:

Congratulations!

Shoot-darn, Rad! Every time I tell myself "I'll never get into blasting; smooth briar for me!" someone like you comes along and blows me out of the water. That pipe begs to be smoked!
