First attempt at etching some scrap aluminium shows promise.

I expect a full “How to” in the next “Outboarder”! 🙂

Prepare to be boarded!

Cold weather has hit us in old Upper Canada so I’m back onto indoor projects. I completed the ReeKoil tag today. It’s as good as I can do with the method I’m using. Will certainly look better than having no tag at all.

I have made a few attempts to restore serial
number tags with limited success. Best results
come with tags that are perfectly flat .

Nice work, Tubs. I’ve restored a few serial tags, as well. They can be a challenge. This tag is going on an unrestored motor so a little distress is good.
