Never though of that. I may have to give that a shot on mine. What would you have to do to an integy lathe to run it reverse? anything?



That paint job is sweet on that body. I think a lime green pinstipe separating the colors would realy top it off nice. Like the color of the BRP packing in the background or the cap on the CA glue.

Integy lathe motors run at 0 degrees so you can reverse the rotation with no problems.
