Brad, in regards to powder coating what do you use to fill the divets/holes in the cases? I brought the Eastwood powder coating kit but can't find a metal filler that can handle the heat of the oven and conduct electricity?!!

It's a done deal. This saw is getting powder coated. The parts just left here a few minutes ago. This is my first time to PC a saw, and I'm excited to see it come together. I'll be using mostly new hardward and a new rubber grip for the rear handle. I've got a nice newer logo for the recoil too.

Y'know... I was going to start a thread, but thought I would mention that some of the 041G's were painted from the factory. Mine was, and it has not been repainted by a previous owner. May sound a little far fetched, but I am certain. Would like to hear more on this, as Ive searched and searched but havent found any discussion on it. I can go into detail if need be... Will try and get some pictures soon as well. I found a thread on a 041G find from a couple years ago, and it looked just the same- painted.
Good on you for the PC though, just thought I would add that tidbit in.

That looks sweet. Did they get paint in the bearing races or did you somehow tape that off?

Looks awsome Brad.
Do you mind me asking what
the cost of powder coating is.

If you're thinking what I'm thinking, it may be time to get some kart parts powder-coated.
:msp_smile: That
And i have a 166 that will need to be painted
or powder coated. And they were originally
powder coated so i'm thinking going that route.

I won't consider anything else when I do mine. Either it or my Contra/Lightning will be next.

I've had a few saws done......it ain't cheap but it is worth every single cent. Mike's not a sponsor and this ain't a full time gig for him. I don't want to break any rules so if anyone is wanting to get in touch with him please send me an email and I'll forward them on to him.
