Aluminum tube powder coated

!0" and 8" Ult Newt models side by side, sitting on their rubber feet, showing relative sizes and powder coated silver vein finish.

Two 10" Dall-Kirkham tube assemblies in powder coated silver vein at left and black hammertone at right. Rear end plate is powder coated in matte black. These do not not photograph nearly as well as they look in real life. An additional advantage of powder coating is that it is very tough and resilient, far more so than paint.

Same two tubes viewed from the top.
