Chopping the toms in half!

Lugs off!

The badges were a bit of a pain in the arse, they are positioned right in the middle where I needed to cut! They are glued on, so you have to carefully peel off the metal badge from the plastic backing, then you can peel the plastic backing off the shell, 3 out of 4 came off and took the glue with it, leaving little residue! :D

One of em left all the glue on the shell T_T but a generous application of white spirits took off most of it, then water with a scrubby sponge took off the last of it without damaging the finish.

The ugly remains of the badges.

 Marking out the exact middle with some masking tape. Hack saw with a fresh blade at the ready!

Nicely clean cut shells, hack saw did a great job!
