Welcome back!

Love to see some pictures of your vintage RC10.

I've never tried to dye Kydex, just buy in the color I want. Places that sell supplies for knife making are a very good source. Here's one that I have bought it from... https://www.knifekits.com/vcom/index.php?cPath=41&osCsid=5aum3nok9bq9f52m920qj8reb6 They also sell some pretty cool hardware! I...

Outstanding, thank you for posting the link. I do a bit of searching every few days but missed a few of those.

Wow. you guys have saved me! I was thinking I'd have to spend more of my meager hobby funds on re-release Worlds CVD axles. I'll bust out some red shock o-rings and try again to get it right. Ok, tried the red o-ring and the dogbone was binding. I put two .010" shims on the axle and there's no ...

Oh man, things are just working out with these axles... :evil: I have the axle in the trailing arm with no shims, 1/8" down stop in the shock. I can't put the spacer that came in the dogbone springs & spacer kit without the dogbone binding in the transmission out drive . there's also no roo...

If you haven't already sourced them, you'll need 3/16 x 3/8 flanged bearings for those axles to work. I forgot to reply with the countersink bit I use. This is the one I prefer. Thought it was from McMaster but that was the previous one https://www.ebay.com/itm/222092837465 Yep, got the 3/16 x 3/8 ...

Thank you for the tip, much appreciated.

I will get into seeing how things go together later on today. I'm hoping I've bought all the right parts. I have a habit of not doing that lately.

The servo mounting holes are drilled in the chassis now. I don't have the proper 82 degree countersink bit (yet) so using some button head screws from the bottom for now so I can move on. http://imageshack.com/a/img922/1428/acssvp.jpg Waiting for some black (ASC 6334) battery cups to arrive in order...

Thank you for the knowledge, it gives me a better understanding of the process of 3D printing. Awhile back I purchased an RC10 front bumper from Shapeways. I did not like the grainy look/feel to the part and tossed it in a box. That experience turned me off to the whole concept and I gave it no furt...

All those motors had me dribbling coffee down my chin this morning! Very nice man, envious of your collection.

Incredible Mr ED. I did not know that this type of thing could be done.

Heck man, now I will have to go back to thinking again after I get the buggy back together again. I have it broken down so I can drill for the servo mounts . I made, sort of a wooden "jig plate" to go in my drill press vise today. Giving it a day for the glue to cure. Waiting on the rear a...

Thanks for your views on the brace tubes. I think I'll put the idea back in my "tool box"

Has anyone figured out a way to run nose tube braces on a C2 chassis?

If your of mind to help me out with a pair of hex adapters it would be much appreciated. I've looked at aluminum alloy ones at amain but not sure what to get. I hope to get my rear axles for the car this week and have ordered the tires/rims from Amazon. Well... if your bending front nose tubes, what...
