So today i got a little bored at work while literally waiting for piant to dry lol it was then i decided to tear my vamo to pieces and see just what could be done. Below you will see before and after pictures, it is a stainless steel vamo it has been powder coated a fine textured black to offer a better look as well as feel with more grip. Then i went ahead and brushed both the top and end caps as i wanted them to remain uncoated because any time i have dropped my pv's its almost always been one of the ends to smack the ground first and and i would rather have a scratch mark in stainless steel then a chip in the powder coating + who does not like the look of brushed stainless Even brushed the steel buttons because i wanted them to be two-tone with the top and end caps, i could of went alot more agressive brushing the metal but i have no back ups yet for this so i was being risky enough in my mind lol.
After that was done and the parts cooled out of the oven it came time to put it all back together, so i decided to use a small bead of JB chemical weld inside each press fitted section to make sure they would not come apart again. This happened to me 2 or 3 times in the past where i dropped my vamo and the middle section came loose and i would have to press fit it back in I'm sorry to for not making clickable thumbnails for the pictures i have absolutley no clue how to and am doing this all on my android
The Before
And the after with some close ups
So yeah thats about it for now, tomorrow or friday i will be silk screening my username and maybe a logo if i can think of one. I will update with a new picture once i do so all you can see.
UPDATED PICTURES
So before going to work this morning i whipped up this artwork quick on the laptop while drinking my morning coffee and vaping krispy treat Its nothing fancy because i really didnt have the time and also because i didnt really care that much as this was all just for fun and i plan on buying another vamo anyway and doing it all again lol
