Had to go with Hemiclod. The rarity and price of the JPS cases/chassis/wheels alone are worth the price of a decent used real car :lol:

Re: Ultrasonic cleaner

I have this one here https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1064225214?pid=225214 I have not used it for RC parts but I use it for cleaning brass for reloading as well as cleaning gun parts such as pistol barrels, AR bolts, and other small gun parts. I could not be happier with it. If you've never had an...

Appreciate my time here

I kind'a hate to say it, but I prob won't be around as much as I have been over the past couple years since I joined this site. I've recently decided to get out of the hobby. I've done it a few times over the past 40 yrs lol but this time, I'm out for the most part. I say "most part" becau...

Re: Big Bear Resurrection

Awesome find. That was one of my favorite RC's back when I was a kid. I still remember taking the snowblower and clearing/making a "track" in the yard to run mine on back in the day. Had to be 30-35yrs or so ago but such fond memories of the Big Bear 8) Looks like the foams fixed the flat ...

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

https://i.imgur.com/NZP8ahA.jpg Got a Monster Locker for the rear end of the 1/5 Monster truck. Tired of breaking gears in that truck so this should remedy that situation. Gonna lose a bit of turning radius but I think it's a trade off I'm willing to make to get the rearend bulletproof in that big ...

Re: So, what did you do RC today?

Yeah that is one thing about the big 1/5 truck, when it breaks stuff it doesn't do it half way, it lets you know it meant it :lol: :lol:

Also got one of the 1/10 trucks out yesterday for a little spin in the yard. First time getting this truck out in probably a year.

Lobo's Bronco does it for me this month. It looks spectacular, and having built scale looking custom trucks myself I can tell there's a ton of work and hours into that build, so that got my vote. Very nice job by all this month.

Re: Gun room expansion (again)

came across this 38 for a price that was just too good to say no too. That was my impression. I had to put the wood grips on mine.

Re: Gun room expansion (again)

Nice collection there Lavigna. I use to really love to shoot archery as well just for the enjoyment of it but haven't shot a bow in probably 25 yrs now. I've started shooting with a buddy that just joined a sportsman's club and in addition to the pistol & rifle ranges they have there they also h...

Re: Gun room expansion (again)

Finished up the 16" 300blackout built over the weekend. Put the first rds through it yesterday and it fires very nicely. Can see myself taking this one to the range with me on a regular basis.

Re: Gun room expansion (again)

Been wanting a revolver that was a bit bigger caliber than the only other revolver in my collection for a while now. Prices of 357-44's has just gone nuts lately, but came across this 38 for a price that was just too good to say no too. Picked it up yesterday from the FFL and already put 50rds throu...
