The customisation thread

[timah!]

The seed was planted by popper a while ago. This is the result.




Now to try and find a 34" flare tip shaft with a green shaft band! Ha!
And maybe an Aussie themed cover...

[Captain Nemo]

Nice mate, very patriotic!

[timah!]

Cheers!

[Lagerlover]

Beautiful hands Timbo... If I close my eyes and concentrate hard enough, I can imagine yours are mine.

[timah!]

Please don't!

[Lagerlover]

haha... you and your reverse psychology.

Really nice mate. Going to be a gamer?

Not sure. The GoLo 5 is really solid, but I'll be giving the newport a roll this week. Once I've got this one built back up again I may give it a roll too. I guess the good thing about not playing much is that you don't get too attached to sticks haha.

I am going to send my tie3 Newport to lajosi soon to get a refurb can't wait

[timah!]

Nice! I think long term that's where both these beaches will end up seeing as the custom shop won't do what I want to them

[golf2013]

Yep you can get done what you want and save the freight.

[timah!]

Yeah, but it would be cool to send a stick there. But for the cost I could get a custom Lajosi, which may happen as well!

Some of his proto designs are really sweet

Yeah, there was a new one on Facebook today which (with one slight change!) would look sweet!

[timah!]

Ok, so guyincognitos scotty arrived today.

It's a fair bit rustler than the pictures suggested, so it will be a good challenge!

I'll take some pictures tomorrow and start the clean up. First step will be to try and remove the rust. Won't be easy so we'll see what happens!

[GuyIncognito]

haha get stuck into it mate!

[timah!]

Pictures. The face actually looks ok. So first step will be getting the teryllium plate off, then can go hard on the rust removal.

[Daves]

Test the Urban Legend and soak it in a bucket of Coke for a week.

[timah!]

Yeah, the other one I've heard is molasses as well.
Will try the coke thing, but ultimately I think it will need something much stronger than that.
Possibly acid. But that will then require a lot more in care afterward.
Will see though, this should be fun!

[benno_r]

Molasses does work - my mate uses it to clean the rust out of old bikes he restores. Can get very messy though.

If you want to go hardcore acid, get the rust converter stuff from super cheap.

[timah!]

I've got a heap of hydrochloric acid for the pool, as well as a mild one for the chlorinator cell. Will see though, that's the last resort.
I wish I had a sand blaster haha.

[Shane788]

Definitely the hydrochloric acid timah! Works so fast I've done it on my old rusty wedges before I gun blued them, just fill a container n dunk it in and it comes off nearly instant.

[Captain Nemo]

Geeeezus!
I thought the one bought was bad....
How you going to re-attach the terri face

[golfbound]

Thats pretty bad will love to see the progress of this

[Captain Nemo]

And another thing, how are you going to re-attach it?
