And don't stop mid pass, maintain a continuous and constant speed for each pass

Oh, and always make sure the tool carriage is on the load side of the feed screw when you cut.

While I was waiting for the TBG TQ10 body to make its way through the USPS black hole, I decided to slap together a Graphite basket case that has been warming the shelf for a number of years. I decided to be a little less strict on my OEM only rule, so there will be a few parts substitutions along t...

Nice collection of part for the build. The gold motor guard is a nice addition. The factory graphite is my favorite version on RC10. Thanks. I got lucky with the motor guard on Ebay probably 10 years ago. I agree, the "plate" cars are really neat. A bit of scrubbing and a peroxide soak li...

Got the bearing kit, and was going to get started on the rebuild. Looking at the white plastics, I have yellowing in some places more than others. https://i.imgur.com/6jbQK0P.jpg I would like these to be shiny and fresh again. https://i.imgur.com/QjJnncq.jpg But I hear about the hydrogen peroxide pr...

But you know what? I DON'T FREAKING CARE! :lol: If the quality is like the 40th (and why woul...

You can see an original style slipper in the pics.

Or a CE car

I picked up this Reedy DS Racing Motor recently. The guide only lists DS Spec and DS Modifieds, but this one is a tabbed stock can with bushings. It's stamped ROAR 96. I can't find much information on the web, and was hoping someone here might have some background on it. I did find this Reedy 1998 c...

I'm trying to find foam tires for what is said to be a standard Associated wheel size. The place I'm getting the standard wheel size from, is according to the Mini-Mags ad: https://i.imgur.com/5g3dfEf.jpg https://i.imgur.com/8QPKqMY.jpg A10-Fs fit RC10 and use standard size ASSOC. tires The wheel di...

A lot of motors have spring posts that are not removable. They basically are a rivet style attachment. The earlier stock motors were not intended to be disassembled for rebuilding, so many have permanently installed spring posts. The one on the right in this picture was broken off.
