Fasteners! Picked up all the parts from the plating shop today. Everything is unwrapped and mostly sorted. The zinc dichromate turned out a little more "pinky" than I would like. I may end up having some of those parts re-done somewhere else. Otherwise, I thought the clear zinc and cadmium turned out really nice. Have to take back the door glass bottoms and quarter sliders, they mistakenly plated those zinc dichromate when they should have been clear zinc. I still need to do all the phosphate pieces. I'll most likely do those myself.
