[quote]ORIGINAL: Big Block Glock I plan to hopefully get this powder coated this week color suggestions any one?, I was thinking the gray hull with either a cobalt blue or a translucent red? Please give me a suggestion. [/quote] My opinion, think the cobalt blue would look better than the red. Maybe throw some some white on it as well

RE: My second build.
Yes it is very rewarding. Still have to play with the thrust angle a bit bounces around alot at higher speeds, could be a weight issue also not sure just have to tweak on it till it's right.
