Hi Donwojtas,

Thanks for your comments.

The paint job was just putting on painters masking tape on in a sunburst pattern, then spraying red. The white (foam) is where I took the tape off. I then gave it a quick spray with a can of "sparkle".

I found the paint "bled" under the masking tape, so if you plan to spray foam, you should probably spray with a clear coat over the masking tape on first, to stop the bleeding. I used standard "foam safe" spray bombs from Walmart.

I went to Home Depot and bought an aluminum fence 30 in. "spindle" (the spokes in the fence) for $2.98. This is the right size to slide over the square piece of wood that GWS uses as a motor mount. I cut it to the length I needed, mounted the motor to it with wire ties, slid it on the wood and put a screw in to hold it in place - works great. Looks just like the GWS plastic gearbox mount.

Hope you find this useful.

Best regards,

Wayne Miller
