Quick Tuf Neck restoration
« on: October 18, 2012, 12:22 PM »
Had the bottom for a while and finally came across a top cap this week  :)

But they where 2 different colours  :crazy2: and both had bits of damage  :buck2: So out with the over pride and some different grades of sandpaper and after and hour or so I'm left with a stem I can now use  8)

Not a bad idea that.  Close to the original clear anodised finish as well.

Nice work Snav.   :4_17_5:
