Re: DIY Givi Box Bracket
the part that i dont like hehehe wet sanding.
removing the orange peel/flattening the base coat.
sir ossie, gaano katagal papatuyuin ang base coat before i can wet sand it?
Re: DIY Givi Box Bracket
Nice job! I especially like that bender, I've got to make me one of those.
Re: DIY Givi Box Bracket
i usually wet sand the base coat (even the primer-if needed, and the top coat) the following morning, but sa instruction pwede na sya within 5 hours yata hehe

thanks master handyman, yup, the bender is really helpful, a must for a metal worker like us 🙂

Re: DIY Givi Box Bracket
nice bracket sir.... nicely done... one thing lang boss
im kinda worried about the strength dun sa may pinagturnilyuhan =)
same issue i had with my fabricated givi bracket...
dalawang beses naulit na tinibayan yung connection / weld
dun nag fail din sa part sa dulo.. where the round bar meets with the hole kung saan nakaturnilyo..
or maybe i just carry too much or ride really hard =
