Parts Bag B Did some activities between meetings or at the end of the days, when I had 5 to 10 minutes to do some paint job. Really small paint activities, actually, but that is what takes the more time. At the end of the week, I had a decent driver figure, I tried to assort with the gold wheels (le...

Something a little unusual for me: a modern buggy.
I don't know if this means that I've finally learned to accept the modern stuff
or if it means that I'm just desperate to build a new buggy from kit - probably some of both.

Picked this up because of the Tamiya inspired box

I got the car Thursday morning. Got it fixed up enough to display at the race. Entered it in the concourse and it won best paint and best of show.

Two year anniversary today. Back to baseline for the most part, though neck pain comes and goes.

Been swamped with work stuff but finally sat aside a few hours this afternoon to get Dobby all painted up so I can put h...

Here’s a couple of pics from the early days I manage to find hopefully the are ok as they are pics of pics.

Going back a bit here.... almost to the beginning of Demon. This is in remarkable condition, with the original dating sticker still intact - '802 330' indicating a Feb 1980 build date, unit number 330. The Demon 1 was forward only, the 2 had reverse. I also managed to find a mag review for these uni...

Today, I ordered online prints for some of the Marui parts I need for the project. I think I found a way to get the prints in Nylon PA12 quite cheap. The initial price of each parts was about 15 euro (taxes not included) each or 13 each if there is more parts. I read somewhere that the print was act...

Got back into the RC thing not too long ago and am hooked. I was never one for staying stock with anything and I love the Stadium trucks. Problem is theres just not many available to buy right now outside of crazy Ebay pricing from Japan. I did score a King Cab recently that Ill be working on restor...

I'm completely unfamiliar with the RC your building Dadio but I can appreciate the work you are doing to replicate parts for it; that's an extremely complex part. Your doing some very advanced design engineering work and I seriously doubt that the professionals who created this car a few decades bac...

I ran my dolphin for the first time at a vintage event last weekend. The drive train : super efficient and incredibly silent : the opposite of my expectations for a chain drive. Nothing got permanently damaged either but it popped out a front dogbone within 30 seconds from the start and a rear wheel...

I ran a falcon in the other heats of this class : 5 runs without even having to touch a single thing. It wasn't quiet a stock falcon of course but still did a much better job than my turbo ultima i ran in another class. Granted the ultima went faster but managed to drop out of the race nearly 5 out ...

After the dinner, yesterday evening, I started by adding some details with masking tape. https://i.imgur.com/pFFlDNf.jpg And prepared the driver body with liquid mask https://i.imgur.com/aoCTeaF.jpg First thing first I did this morning was to prime the helmet (no pictures) Then used a photocopy of t...

What’s a numper……
Sorry I’ll see myself out.
