    Tubs……That bench……dam that bench…lol

    How can you work in such filth????

    The top of my bench is covered with an offset
    printing blanket. It can be best described as a heavy
    canvas coated with rubber. Most solvents don’t bother
    it. Really easy to keep clean, grips parts so they aren’t
    sliding around, and a soft landing for anything that gets
    dropped. Sometimes I do get behind in my cleaning and
    as you can see, occasionally, I have allowed it to get into
    this deplorable state.

    Looking great Tubs thanks for the links!

    Out of curiousity, what are you going to do with your jugs and your crankcase? Are you painting them or??

    Also, the panels on top of tank, with starting instructions on them, do they easily come off with heat, or should I leave them on to polish the tank?

    Looks like they are soldered on perhaps?

    Actually I am envious of that bench… I can get mine like that, ..as long as I do NO motor work….but once I start I usually have 3 in pieces at one time….

    My power head seems to be in good condition so I have just cleaned it up and painted it.

    I don’t have them on my motor (tank). My motor is a "C" and yours in a "J". and
    I’m guessing that is why you have them and I don’t.

    Correct, Model C S/O instructions were decals.

    Thanks for responding.
    I really didn’t know for sure.
