Honey, I shrunk the Junior T....

C'mon USA distributor! Papa needs a JJ replica!

I made a label for my Sagami can parts motor.

Started a rebuild of this Samurai that's been in a box apart for quite a few years now. Gearboxes are impossible so I had one 3d printed in clear resin. Not fully transparent but looks pretty cool and will be a good placeholder until I can locate a fresh original

Alright, after working on the board for over 7 hours straight, everything has been updated. I still have a bunch to do but it's currently 8:00am, and I'm off to bed. I'll work on it some more later this evening.

It's funny how after all that work, it looks like I did nothing at all...

Just looking to create a visual gag reflex.... anyone out there in need of a stubby junior in clown colors? Lol

My Frankentruck finally got a nice body shell. Mid motor graphite chassis T3. Novak SS4300 brushless with Novak XXL AM receiver and Futaba 2PL radio.

Ignore the Traxxi in the rear.

Finished up my Masami tribute body with some extra touches

Made this battery strap for my Classic. The post stops shorty lipos from sliding backwards. It's upside down in this picture. Fitted.

Had a little time to play around with my new mini spot welder. Made up some cells to fit into a Tamiya hump pack. It is such a tight fit in the case that I hade to remove the skins from the cells, and only insulate where needed, so that is why it looks all trashy with the tape. It will look just fin...

Don't be squashing my dream! I really want this car!

I didn't realize Novak also licensed a receiver to Duratrax. This seems like a good item to use in a build with my DTX4 ESC. They'll make a smurfy group. I wonder if there's a blue Duratrax servo.

Started loading up the second display case, this one is mainly motors and batteries.
