Obviously you have to have the tools to do the work, .

Well your doing a fine job for your first go at it. Ironically I paint too... Have done everything from sand blasting and spraying freeway brigdes and industrial to fine laquer work over the years and like you, I think it gives me the confidence I can do this. I just hope mine turns out half as good as your is.

I don't have near enough tools as I found out yesterday. I thought i'd have my bed off in no time cause in theory it's a simple task in my opinion, but with out proper tools it turns into a drugout ordeal. All the bolts in the bed are seized up. I may have to get a torch to free them cause I need to get this thing apart so I can get movin on it. Any suggestions on those bolts ? They always spin from the top when you try take them off. I just don't want to butcher it and cause more work for myself. Need ideas for proper torch to go with. Shoot me a pm if you have any ideas I don't want to rob your thread.

Great job man. Keep it up
Looking forward to the progress.
