Even with the generous offer given by the seller, this is the most expensive, by far, parts tree I have ever bought. This is why I don't build things right, because building right is expensive!! I have bought quite a few cars for less than I have in this group of plastic.

Just a wee bit bigger now

This afternoon, i tried to export a dxf from Fusion360 to transofrm it in png, and it did not worked the way I wanted. I finally took a screenshot of the windows profile, and redimensionned it in Silhouette Studio, set the sequence of cutting : first pass for the holes, second for the glass surround...

I will come back and update this thread in a few weeks. But for now, I just want to show it off for guys that donated parts to the project. This is where your stuff went. If you know the back story, please keep it to yourself for now. I'll explain later. Thanks to Frankentruck, dldiaz, duckhead, and...

WHile awaiting the part for other projects, I restarted to work on this Mugen Mercury... https://i.imgur.com/uii55qU.jpg The chassis is quite complex to measure for multiple reasons : it has everything to make it difficult : - plans are not parallel - length is too long for my caliper - and each cur...

Blue Super Moon tonight. Worth seeing if your skies are clear. I would have a Blue Moon while viewing it, but I'm a Busch Light man.

Radiolink brushed esc review.

Almost a 2 year update.

Trying to get this one done for this year's Vonats. Still waiting on some parts, so cutting it close. But Darkside Designs got the body painted for me, and I got it trimmed and stickered when it got back yesterday. That's it for now.

The final set of prints arrived this morning... https://i.imgur.com/kW8DI1Q.jpg All those parts look nice, and that is good to get into reality... I was a bit scared for the body part by the print provider team during the validation of the files as they mentioned warping and aspect risks during the ...

That's out of the park Mark :!: excellent job 8) Looks super modern with the satin finish but if you go that way I think decals would look out of place .... any idea what colour you'd go for if you paint it ? either way the dashboard needs detailing for the dials and radio . Must have been a huge s...

Little smorgasbord today. Some aluminum wheels and tires for my MIP SRB build, an awesome complete 5-link suspension kit (from Battletrak) for my Losi JRX_ build, and bearings and SS rods to be cut down to shafts for my AE Funny Car build.

With the Super Wheelie project heading to build time, I need to print tires again... Resin choice is Resione F80, because it just works... https://i.imgur.com/4ndt7yI.jpg One thing that I definietly improved is the cleaning process with 2 bath of IPA (the second one is fresh IPA). https://i.imgur.co...

I got the Front printed successfully as well....


Now repeating the operation to get two more tires... I may slice some Hunter/Galaxy tires later on...

There was no way I would even think one second to run this project car with original tires (not that I don't have some)... But for the fun, it has to be printed tires (and because I would always think the project is not over if I don't do it this way)... So I took the same resin as the one I used fo...
