That cap looks beautiful with such a subtle burst into what you are calling mauve.
Nice warm colour combination sez me. Keen to see more progress . . .

Beautiful colour mate. It looks like the purple that sits in the middle of a sunset. So nice!
That burst!!! I don't think they get too much better than this and the colour choice is perfect.

By the way we need more pizza in the naughty room please !

ty guys, had a heavy handed "GLOOT" on the back.. so had to redo the back.. Dam the impatience..Just have to wait for the weather to get back to the normal spring niceness to carry on a bit further.. Update pictures to come next week-ish when I have done some more.

oh well AJ the back come up nicely. We had over 36 degrees here in Perth yesterday so maybe warmer weather is on its way east !
Impatience sometimes gets the better of all of us AJ

Have had to repair the pergola flooring from where it got water damage (from a while ago..), so that put the build on the back-burner for a few days. At least I earned some brownie points from the missus.
Finally got a little bit more done to the body, 2 mist coats and 1 normal coat of clear done now, maybe need to do 1 more clear normal then a special blend coat to reduce the amount of cutting n polishing.
Tomorrow, the gods willing, will be going to have a peek at the woodworking show at Jeff's Shed in Melbourne. Wifey is also going as I needs someone to carry the goods back to the velocipeed.
