Next, I took to cleaning up the head casting. Using a torch I melted and scraped off all the chinese body filler, and cleaned the casting in the parts washer. Once that was done, I dropped the casting off at a machine shop to get the sides flycut smooth in preperation for paint. The less body filler the better. Why the Chinese factories didn't do this to begin with is beyond me. The amount of work it is to body fill and sand smooth these castings would be ridiculous compared to chucking it up and flycutting the sides (as they already do for the top and rear). Oh well, should look nice when its done. I eventually plan to make a wrap around cover that covers the face, sides, motor, and pneumatic drawbar. Something like what Tormach has.
