Removing "turbines" ?

[Aavee]

Hi all,

Since I would like to see visually less fancy MP, I am not necessarily a big fan of the "turbines",
I assume those are basically just for visual purposes, this is why I have one question?

Have anyone of you ever tried to remove them somehow? In a nice way or in a hard way?

Easy solutions are often the best ones ;-)

There was one guy who filed & sanded the turbines off, I just spent ages trying to find the post! Alan how are your sleuthing skills today?

My opinion was it looked a bit molested.... If you have a metal lathe would be the best method as if you left too much mass on any side could cause an imbalance.

I personally, would go with Gingey's idea. He has some good methods with his 'KISS' principles

And if you go down that road you could use my idea and paint it with 'Duplicolor MetalCast Paint' or 'flash cast paint' that has an adonized look.

Here is a youtube video, have a look for others because the quality of this one is poor. Its a nice look though!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHOebG6D8SU

I was going to make mine gold for 'true' golden motors
