Re: Daverods project 66
That is one heckuva gas mask.. Army surplus???
Looks like something you would use with bottled air. If you have a bath fan in a box, I do not think you'll have much pressure at the mask, Try the central vacuum exhaust instead. Or the helium tank. C'mon--answer the door on Halloween wearing that!!! Scare the Kids!!

Re: Daverods project 66
you mount the fan in a box put a vent in it set it outside in some fresh air. Most those fans kick out about 80 cfm should be plenty. If your breathing that hard your not painting. Read about it in the paint section. I guess it works? we'll see. Cheaper then a real fresh air supply,better then buying organic cartridges all the time. Firefighters mask.

Re: Daverods project 66
it should work , you might need to put in some sort of valve so youre not recycling the same air in and out , it might allso be handy to put some of those helmetvisorpull off thingies they use for offroad racing on there too so you can see through the paintfog after some time in the booth
you might want to test if the inside of the visor fogs up over time too once youre painting it gets hard to do sumtin about it i think hooking it up to the compressed air trough a filter reduser and two airhookups (one for the mask one for the paintgun) would work best alltough it smells bad you only dragging one airline with you hooked to youre belt and a small line across youre arm to the gun , less stuff to drop intoo the fresh painted roof or door

Dave, your Impala dash is looking good. It looks like you have worked on it since the last time saw it.

Re: Daverods project 66
I was thinking about some pipe that was cut in 1/4. But the corners would be a pain. I better look at your some more.

Re: Daverods project 66
I love my little paint room. I just make a big mess, flip the fans on, crack the garage door, little air hose action and clean shop.

Re: Daverods project 66
Kinda like these but patina look, with black under it ,flat paint, with clear coat or ghost flames. And I'll get some stripper cages and some Hooters girls chicks too.

Re: Daverods project 66
It sure doesn't take you long to get started on stuff. It looks like you got right to it. Hope it was what you expected. It was good to finally meet the infamous Daverod. Looking forward to someday getting down your way and seeing your setup. Keep up the good work.

Re: Daverods project 66
the basic shape of the console is .... ok , i would resess the center a bit and make the edge of the dash extend towart the seats it would make it look more factorie made and you dont have to rip out the whole console to get inside it (the resessed part can be screwed on top ) makes it eazier to extend it to the firewhall and cover too (you prolly cant shove the consolle under the dash if its one piece )

Re: Daverods project 66
you could make the sides out of mdf it makes less mess can be rounded simple by a router and isnt as smelly you could cover that in carpet (makes closing gaps eazier ) or leather , i would make the top in sheetmetal if only to provide a grounding for the switches and stuff , you can either spraypaint it or cover the top in thin wood depending on youre dash covering
to round the metal edges i think pipe would work . i think i would start with a frame in pipe or roundbar if weight isnt a concern and cover that with plate

Re: Daverods project 66
Split a pipe in half and framed my dash. Just what I wanted,worked great. I need to get some bucket seats so I can figure out my center console.

Re: Daverods project 66
Put my rear bumper on. Much better. What was I thinking, Roll pan? Put up a nice fire starter. Now for the hinges.
