Progress

Cleaned up the titanium swing arms and the wheel spider today. I'm really happy with the finish that garnet blasting leaves.

The Flying Jackhammer

The custom scooter rebuild is getting more attention this week with the remaking and repairing of the front suspension. I've managed to straighten the slightly tweaked titanium wheel center, lighten the Ti swing arms and clean up the aluminum wheel hub pieces. Also remade the stainless swing-arm pivot axle while I was at it. Still have a few more parts to rehab but not many.

I thought I'd model the front end as solids in the process of rebuilding everything, That way I can brush up on SW a bit.
