Re: Bored? Come To The Chit / Chat Thread

Stopped by a table at the flea market this morning, pretty excited to see a Tami Mk5 Porsche, and the seller yells from his truck, "$60 for all of the RC stuff." Yessir! :D The Mk5 looks complete, and I should have a new body and decals sitting around for it. With a new bottom chassis plat...

Re: Bored? Come To The Chit / Chat Thread

I have a whole "wow, what was I thinking?" work story, but I will just give the result. I ended up with my thumb trying to plug a 1/4"npt hole on a pump that contained 180*F water under pressure .............. and ended up having to keep my thumb there for 2-3 minutes. The resulting b...

Re: Let's Talk Tractor / Truck Pulling

I still have no idea what I am doing, but I am doing it anyway! :D I keep having great ideas at about 5am of how I am going to work out something on this build, but when I sit down in front of it, the ideas aren't going to work. :? Oh well. I have the basic design of the pumpkin worked out I think, ...

Re: Better Bandit-ing with 3D printing?

As for durability, the main casualty was the rear lower shock mounting screw tore out of the hole of the arm. I anticipated possible issues with the strength of PLA, so I was not too surprised (I printed out several spares). It gives me incentive to finally upgrade my printer to handle composite ny...

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

I had been speaking with this semi-local (3 hours away) person about their Scorcher on FBMP for a little bit, but we couldn't work out the logistics of a pickup. After some time, they offered to ship it for less than gas would have cost, but then I don't get to road trip! I told them I would think a...

Re: Are we ready to add an RC10T ReRe section?

Oops, I thought you were talking about the T. I didn't look at the 40ths to be honest, because I need another like a hole in the head.............although I thought about it. I just happened to notice the one on the shelf and commented to the manager that I was surprised that was sitting there, and ...

Re: Are we ready to add an RC10T ReRe section?

"Sold out" on their website so apparently they are only selling them in the store. I'm curious; did you happen to notice the price? That may have been a smart thing to look into! :) I did not. TBH, I doubt they would have been able to tell me, as I don't think they could even see them in ...

Re: Are we ready to add an RC10T ReRe section?

They will be apparently selling them through HobbyTown at the local retail level only. I will be on that side of town tomorrow, and will see what the local store says. HT chat confirmed that they are not planning on selling them online at this point, but to check back in, because these situations t...

April had 65 votes. May, within 5 days of polling closing, has 47 votes.

Another 18 votes could change the whole race!!

Random Chit Chat Thread: If you need help with Profile Avatar

I have been playing around with changing my avatar for this forum for quite a bit, but every time I went into p'shop, and just directly played with the size parameters set forth by the site, I ended up with a pixelized mess, and just put it off until the future. And then did that again and again. Yo...

Re: ** Kyosho JJ Ultima Waffle **

So yeah, from what I can find, some countries either don't allow making donations to anything not registered with their governments, or they don't allow donations to be made through PayPal. Who knew? :? I am guessing there is actually good intentions behind this, even if it comes across as too big ...
