Thanks bro! I’ve got another idea for it just gotta figure out if I can make it work simple enough. You could definitely get creative with a 3D printer. You should try to see if you can design a fan tip for it. I bet that would be a big hit.
@@royalcoatspowdercoating that's my thought....but as I'm soon you will soon find once u get good you get busy...booked 3 months out and building more shop, buying equipment and trying to feed my own channel.
@@RightNowPowderCoating man that’s awesome, congrats! I hope to get there one day. I hardly advertise my powder business currently as my full time job keeps me pretty busy. Trying to manage the happy medium of not getting over worked with powder without any help.
I did same muzzle upgrade and also machined a brass diffuser/emitter tip about 5/8” diameter and my Eastwood gun works pretty good. Next I will build a small booth. Thanks for your videos, they helped in the process.
Great info, just subscribed. I’d love to see your oven and spray booth setup. I’m building my first oven right now to step up from a toaster oven and I’m always looking for ideas. It’s only going to be 2’ x 2’ x 3’ for now until I can find room to build something bigger. Edit: never mind. I just clicked on your videos and saw that you have a video for the booth. Going to check it out now.
Royal Coats Powder Coating will do. It’ll be a video when I’m done. I’m going budget build with a free oven for the parts. I’m already wishing I could go bigger though.
@@LucidAutowerks I hear ya man, it all comes with time. If you had a way to go taller that’s one thing I’d suggest to be able to fit suspension parts and 2 wheels at a time. But if not just work with what ya go bro
So question I'm doing a large blasting cabinet and large oven that are home made, I'm making them out of 275gal fuel tanks. The oven is going to be gas because it's 100% heat and heats faster. Now, do u see a problem with using gas ovens, and is there more money made in larger items. Just a quick pro con if u could. Thanks for the channel it's came in very helpful.
Another great, practical video! Would love to see the comparison between the three guns results. I hope there's enough interest. Keep up the good work 🤛
@@royalcoatspowdercoating I think there'll be a lot of interest in a comparison like that, esp. for the guys using the Eastwood DV gun, to see how it stacks up against the pro guns.
great video that works good , what psi do use, i just powder coated some brackets i made for my side x side for lights i had problem with powder sticking im gonna give that a try
I just purchased the dual voltage Eastwood gun, I noticed you kept clicking the button with your thumb, does that help with the powder sticking into little corners or what?
My opinion is that it helps get those hard to reach areas. Kind of like pulsing the trigger on an intermediate/pro level gun. The trigger activates the charge and the powder flow at the same time. Give it a try if you have an area that powder seems to have a hard time attesting to. Also stay tuned, I’ll be offering some tips and attachments to make the Eastwood even better 👍🏼
Awesome, how does it work for you? Pressing it on and off kind of acts like the trigger on a better system. Sometimes pulsing the charge helps get into faraday areas better.
@@royalcoatspowdercoating I have not tried it yet. I 3D printed mine and I’m going to experiment with rifling vanes internally to create a kind of vortex of powder to get in to those tight Faraday spots. Who knows, it might work 😆
@@royalcoatspowdercoating Im green to powdercoating, and am looking to start up a business doing it. I want to invest money into the right kind of gun to do this at a professional level, but want to keep it as cheap as possible without the equipment being garbage. I've been heavily considering getting the eastwood dv gun and doing the hopper and this mod to it, but am curious to see if you know of another gun kit that might work better. Im looking to do high quality work but am worried a starter gun like eastwoods wont get me that result.
@@ngaudio9143 if you want to make a business out of it without wasting money, skip the dv in my opinion. Have you checked out my videos on the RC-1? It is more expensive than the dv but I get great results out of it with a lot less effort.
@@royalcoatspowdercoating I havent seen any of your videos talking about it. I did click a link to it on one of your videos and am heavily considering spending the extra couple hundred on it. Ill take a look at your videos talking about it
I would like to see a comparison on the different guns, and what bigger money gets you….
Props for playing with that gun. Got me thinking that with my 3d printer I could make a decent tip for that dang eastwood gun.

I was just thinking the exact same thing. You could actually print both parts. I need to figure out CAD. Oy, too many things.
OK, I love the virtual community! I asked in a 3D print forum on MeWe and a guy whipped them up in about 2 minutes. Will test after I print them.

Sounds nice! Glad the videos have helped. A booth is a must have for powder coating. Helps keep down the powder all of the shop/garage
Yes I would like to see the comparison between the guns. Great video, thanks!
Thank you. I will start working on that as soon as I get the chance 👍🏼
Never seen a Dv run that smooth
Wish I would’ve done this when I started! Would’ve saved me a ton of headaches for sure

I may do it anyway. May be awhile before I can get to it though. But it would be nice to compare all three

@@adrianmaree8352 for sure, I’ll get around to it soon. Have some things I need to get out of the way first.
Some really good advice .great job keep up the good work
Thank you!
Great Tips and info much appreciated!
Isn't there supposed to be a ground wire hooked up to that wheel somewhere?
Subscriptions are growing 👊🏻
I know, appreciate it brother! 👊🏼
great video that works good , what psi do use, i just powder coated some brackets i made for my side x side for lights i had problem with powder sticking im gonna give that a try
I think I used around 10-13psi. It’s been a while since I’ve sprayed with it
Excellent cheap mod.
Thank you!
Love the channel man! You may have mentioned, but I couldn’t find it, which size tip did you use? 16mm 20mm 24mm or 32mm?
Thank you! It’s a 24mm

@@royalcoatspowdercoating sweet, thanka for the tip, I've been kinda binging your videos for information
@@zackarymorrow6484 for sure! Thanks for watching, let me know if I can help you out any other way 👍🏼
Just made the mod 👍 I noticed in the vid that you were pressing the button with your thumb on and off rather than just on all the time, why is that ?
Awesome, how does it work for you?

I’ll let you know how it all turns out 👍😊
Hey man, what’s your ground setup??
Can I cut the wire going to the Eastwood gun and put an automotive plug on it so I don't have to drage the whole kit with the gun?
Did you ever end up making a follow up video to this where you cure the wheel or a different wheel using this mod?
No, I never got around to it.
