well I haven't had time to do a lot of posting but I learned a ton about this this summer
My son started a hydro-graphics business in Merlin over the summer. There is actually a lot to it that makes the difference between a backyard job and a professional type job
He has the heated recirculating tank, guns.....all the stuff. He already has done a couple guns, lots of car parts, animal skulls for hunters and other stuff
He did some stuff for his car that he was showing me, mounted to his car. I thought it was cool but said " as soon as you take that through the brush its probably not doing to good?"......he took out his keys and keyed the crap hard enough that it would have peeled car paint......I was impressed.
He is doing my 18" for a Fathers Day gift, Kryptec Highlander.
After he ran me through the "professional" process and keyed his car I have no issues putting this on my rifle.
I think he is going to do good, there really is only one more place in Southern Oregon that does this and its hard to get them or find info on them
I am going to weld him a big stainless tank this winter, should be cool
