army67romeo - I can say 1 bad thing and 9 good things about the stand builder. The 1 bad thing... he lives too far!!! hehehe... thanks for the great job on the stand Michael.
jetman5443 - AZ Powder Coating in Phoenix did the coating. The quality is pretty good... i could have done a better job at sanding it and making it more smooth. Due to the "smoothness" of the coating/color, you can see some waves due to the lack of sanding. And not patchy at all. Very smooth, and clean.
The color isn't a solid black, it's a shiny black with some colored lighting depending on the angle you look at it when the light hits it.
