Powder Coating Hull - Tracked Amphibious Vehicle Build Ep. 23
Before going to the powder coating I still had to fully weld the tracked amphibious vehicle hull and grind welds down nice and smooth. Then I wire brushed rusty parts and cleaned the whole thing with compressed air and vacuum cleaner. Since the tracked vehicle is wider than the car trailer box I also had to fabricate a platform on top of the trailer. I made it out of wood I milled a couple of years ago with the homemade chain sawmill. These larch boards sure came in handy. I installed a hand winch so I could winch the tracked amphibious vehicle on the platform. And like a curse just the night before the powder coating it snowed and made everything a bit more difficult. Difficult in the sense that when it snows the road will be salted. Bare steel and salt don't mix, especially just before going to powder coating. Thus I had to wrap the tracked amphibious vehicle in tarp and plastic. The powder coating was done locally. I don't have a personal powder coating facility as someone suspected. There is no need for that for my business yet. Now when the hull and other parts are painted I can start putting this thing together. There's still a bunch of things to do on the engine/CVT/gearbox unit to make it work 100% like I personally want. But all of that already next week. Or the week after that. Thanks for watching! ;)
