THe acid bath is the least of the worries - it's dinged up to buggery!

Yeh, go figure!
Why the hell would someone do this to a current model Scotty?:-k

Is this one of Zigwah's early experiments? :)

Nothing an angle-grinder and lead tape can't fix. :roll:

Or maybe some instrustrial-strength honey.

(We should check with Mike whether this was the Scotty that he bid on last night.)

Remill the face, file the back bumpers. Heavy polish everywhere else.
I'd be thinking that if its got 10gm weights it will need 20's by the end of it but it would still look fine.
Maybe get one of Kari's proprietary wave milled faces on it for something quite different :-)

And to think people laughed at what I did to that Odyssey #2 a couple of years back!

Especially seeing as I ended up pulling the T-joint off and selling it to Dicky!

Hux is spot on Titliest, you will probably lose 8-15g re-milling the face and linishing out the bumpers, flange & topline, increase the insert weights and she will be a s good as new.
Why you would use acid to remove the paint fill????-maybe a bad etching experiment??
It certainly can be saved...

Dip it in honey.

Really thick honey.

Its not me, i didnt do it!:mrgreen:
Was interested in buying it, would be a good pickup seeing as though you could just buy heavier weights to compensate for the weight lost when cleaning it up!;)

What do you predict it will sell for? I say $120.

Rather than purchasing heavier wieghts you can add lead or lead powder in the cavity under the standard wieghts!

Will cost US $150 for full Custom Shop restoration, so $100 would be a good pickup!
