    The Atomic Sign

    Very nice job. One thing though............as a sign guy myself, I would NOT stripe, or outline the white with any color. The dropshade that you have should be left on its own. I would bet that your sign painter would agree. Just my thoughts. It looks perfect the way it is.

    Is this a smart move? Used boiler

    I had a heating guy come look at my garage, and he priced me out a Munchkin MD80, that is all that I can tell you. So, what brand is in my budget? Thanks, Brad

    Is this a smart move? Used boiler

    Okay, so Munchkin is out....what do you suggest for a NG boiler, wall mount? I am on somewhat of a budget, but feel that I should be able to get one for 2500 that would do the job?

    Is this a smart move? Used boiler

    Thanks all, for the input. He had issues with the heat exchanger, and had that replaced. He said that he replaced the boiler because he needed heat right away, so he had this one sitting there.....I was pretty leary of buying someone elses problems. He said that it was 4 grand new, and would...

    Hey Kevin I am sure that one could do a transplant on the compressor and such, but I haven't done any of that. I prefer to find ones that already work! ha I put a wanted ad on CL, and had 3 or 4 to choose from. I bought them all! I paid from $50-$100 or each, but the green Coronado I paid...

    My 1938 General Electric Fridge. It is completely original, and the only thing I did was do some mud work, and paint it the same color as my 67 Chevelle, in base/clear. All the stainless and chrome is in really nice shape.[/URL][/IMG] [/URL][/IMG]

    I guess people can do what they want to their fridges, but I have just never been a fan of guys cutting their doors apart and installing taps for kegs. I am glad that I don't see many of the old ones (40-50's) made into smokers either. Its the same thing with car dashes.......I don't care for...

    I know Kevin, in needs something, but it is now in the possession of my SIL, and she has different ideas on what she likes. Plus, it is going in there cabin, so I don't think she wanted something LOUD! haha I did one for another buddy, and we flamed it the "right way". Meaning, that the flames...

    A couple other fridges I did this summer, while I was finishing up my garage. One of them is a 1950 GM Frigidaire (Black one) that I gave to a good buddy of mine. It is almost screaming "PINSTRIPE ME"!! He is into the 50's type hotrods, so we are thinking up something to letter on it that fits...

    Here is the "after" photo. I bought a new door gasket, and had the shelves and handle rechromed. The color is an olive green base/clear. My wife wouldn't let me put this one in the garage (it is in my 3 season patio) so I had to buy another one to put in my garage.[/URL][/IMG]

    Here is the "before" photo of my 1940's? Coronado. I cant find another one to tell what exact year it is. It works great, and cools the beer perfectly cold. I am in the sign business, so redoing it was not bad at all. The bottom was really rusty, but a trip to my sandblast buddy took care of...
