Gummi Appreciation

[Neil_VT00]

A while back I picked up a NIB B-Code SJ and much to my dismay, when I opened the box a saw this:

However it did come with this replacement vent:


A while later, Gummi found a b-code on the side of the road and was nice enough to send me this:


With a little cleaning, I'm thrilled with the results:



Thanks @PBE Gummi Bear. You along with the other statesmen set the tone for this place and make it a great group to be a part of.

Even better. Never was a fan of the rivots anyway.

You're most welcome! It looks great and I'm glad you are able to complete your SJ. Now I have to figure out how to dispose of the rest of the SJ body.

 Wow that cleaned up perfectly.  What technique did you use to get it scratch free like that?

@captjoe06 I started with a SOS pad and dish soap to get most of the grime off. Then 220 grit sandpaper followed by steel wool and last metal polish. Nothing too crazy, I just make sure to always sand/scrub in the same directions. In person you can still see marks from the steel wool.

Gummi is AWESOME.  He got me started on this wonderful hobby by sending me his dumpster avocado.  Love all the people here on WKC.

Very nice Gummi. I joined this club for many reasons, but this was #1. Great people willing to help each other.
