This morning I got right to the final sanding and putting the lacquer onto the gear. I'm using Deft brand lacquer which comes in a spray can. Super easy to use and really nice finish.

The fresh wood is a little lighter than the spreader bar and struts, which were done months ago, but they should yellow up a bit in time.

Gear is now complete. Next up, mounting the guns.
