When not mandrel bending intakes...

verboten · 10-14-2007, 10:06 PM

Here is a sign that we mandrel bent/ polished/ nickle chrome plated for a skate/ snowboard shop on Westwood Bl. in L.A. the "Hot Rod" store.
This has been up for at least 12 years, and to this date it's still shiny and chrome

The owner, Jimmy once had the entire building painted in flames, I guess the neighbors complained, and it's painted white again.
The sign was a fun challenge, and on Hot Rods opening day I met Tony Hawk and a bunch of skaters that I see on FUEL tv now

BTW the material is 3" od, 16 gauge c/r bent on a radius 6.
No time for signs today, just building mandrel intakes, exhausts, and headers.
