Nice work Andrea!  8)

There's a lot of these engines out there that have lost the paint and striping on their flywheel spokes.

Certainly for me, a skill I know I will never acquire.

But I can highly recommend parallelmotion's daughter Andrea.  She did a perfect job for me on a old Bing Overtype wheel.  See her work below.

I didn't ask her, but I imagine she could do striping on base plates, etc.

Reach out to Brent for more info.
