Unfortunately Johnny I can't claim credit for the box spray booth idea -   Patent Office says it's already in common use in sheds everywhere.

Folding booth! Not a bad idea. I have a tent within the outer garage that I use when I get the spray gun out.

Johnny4428:
For me I’m finding it difficult to keep originality and restore. This is not going to be a “show pony” (don’t know WTF that is anyway).
So have finished the engine and frame. Next job getting setup for bolt and fittings plating. I’ve ordered one of that rumbler parts cleaning vibrating thingys before I get sonked in the face with something flying off the wire wheel.

Forgot to say that the farm has just been touched up as it was in quite good condition and very little rust. So figured if it’s survived the last 50 years it would be good for another 50!😳

I've seen a Potato Rumbler that peels spuds, never seen a parts cleaner version, it will be interesting to see how you get on with it. Is that a pillar drill in the background or something more complex?

Engine & frame looking good, what is the flywheel type thingy in the background?
