I guess the hardest part of the build was the waiting it took to get all of the parts in to piece it together. A friend of mine built the wheels and helped me with the whole process so all-in-all, it was a pretty painless process. Everything about the process was enjoyable... learning how to set- up everything and watching it come together part by part was the best.... watching how each part complemented the next and so on.

If you are curious as to how I got an all black A719 rim with machined sidewalls.. this is how it was done... Since it is a disc set-up and I won't be using the sidewalls, we just took KG Gun Kote and airbrushed it on. I use it on some rifles of mine and it is a durable finish... it took about 2-3 coats and looks great in the all black wheel!
