    Default Inherited a MK3

    Hi,

    I have inherited a MK3 but it is not in the greatest condition.

    The bench top has most of its surface gone.

    Should I pull it appart completly and restore each part?

    I have use of a sand blaster and have a local powder coater.

    Any suggestions would be usefull.

    I have downloaded the instruction manual, so I "should" be able to reassemble it.

    Thanks

    Peter

    I would check with triton, to see if the scales for the top of the Mk3 are still available.

    I don't really see the point. If it works and the top is flat, the look og it doesn't matter. Just give it a clean, get cutting and soon you'll be buying every add-on ever made - just like the rest of us.......
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    Peter,


    Why don't you buy a new table top from Triton instead of resurfacing it. From memory they are about $75 plus postage. Much simpler and it will have the scales on it.

    BTW scales are available as well.


    Peter.

    Peter,
    Triton have a deal where you can trade your old Mk3 top in and get $100 off a 2000.
    $100 trade in + $75 plus postage to replace the original, to me that would be enough justifaction to trade up.

    Saying that, I have a Mk3 and am quite happy to keep it at the moment. I think the trade up deal end in a couple of months so I will restart the arguement with myself then.
