Thanks Aaron if I can't get them sooner I'll take you up on that offer but, I'd like to get them sooner so I can assemble the axle before the snow really starts flying.

Hay guys I just found this video of a coaster I went on this summer when I was down in VA for the Boy Scout jamboree.
It was a GREAT coaster.

I just confirmed on google maps, that's definitely the place I had sandblast my '79 frame. Too bad they are gone. Now, onto other places that do sandblasting on a much smaller scale...

P&B Autobody in Bristol claims to do sandblasting. In fact I called them about doing my '79 frame and they told me to call PJ cause it was just to big for them.

Alloy Welding around the corner from me also has a sand blasting cabinet for small jobs (also in Bristol).

Probably that much into motor, batteries and control circuits.
Any real details about how they deal with power steering, A/C, etc?
