Blank cheque would do nicely :shock: Why do you want the Rossin stem anyway ?

 

[TGR]

LMAO It is a long story but i am planning to build a Rossin and i thought i would start with a stem. My next purchase will be spokes. IT could be a long build.

[TGR]

Well, you have to start somewhere!!

Polish Butcher looks to have been doing his stuff on that stem & jockey wheel cages sadly

 

[TGR]

It's not PB stuff.

How are you painting in the recessed wording. With model enamel paint, it might be best to use a tooth pick and dip it in hte paint then in the lettering. Enamel finds it own level and will spread along the letters. Better than doing it with a very fine paint brush. A syringe with ink filler needle on it might be good as well. Just a thought.

Pour it in (use a syringe also) then wipe the access away with a stretched cloth is how I've done it in the past without a problem. OK you waste a bit of paint but I feel it works.
