When I saw the pics of this car, I thought about the Ten4 project... Then saw the title of the thread today... It's always disapointing when there is a rip off of a design you took time to do... On the good side, you may see it as a form of appreciation of your work. On the bad side, it is a steal, ...

I had this idea since a few months... https://i.imgur.com/UquoP0B.jpeg The Filaflex 60A is very difficult to print for this, and way too flexible for this. So this idea was put in the corner after the first attempt to print a tire halve (unsuccessful cause of some retractation issues, but enough to ...

My builds are quite involving, and they are taking time : on this one it reached another level. Not a single original part was used. Lot of 3D prints and home made parts, some replacemnt parts widely available, and we have a *not* Zerda, and it took about 2 years and a half to get there between the ...

The local fablab does open 2 evenings every months, since the beginning of the year for makers, and following the training, i'm able to work almost in full autonomy on the CNC machine and I'm not that far of the same on the Laser cutter. Today I used the cnc machine. Carved some wood (no pictures, i...

Started to play a bit with Makera CAM... I decided to prepare the file to cut another pancar 1/12 chassis... This is fairly easy, as I did this already in another CAM software (Galaad) to cut one using the CNC machine at the fablab. Makera CAM is fairly intuitive, and that is easy. https://i.imgur.c...

The work is not over, yet : I still need to take care of the driver and the mirrors... And as well, finish the electronics installation (not yet done on this chassis). https://i.imgur.com/DWzRC9m.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/9BF0T9C.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/9JTJbG3.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/9b04Bsq.jpeg ...

1/12 driver is so small... I decided to cheat as I did not want to paint the face... The body is a Hunter driver body scaled 80% and the the helmet is the one I did for the Super Wheelie, scaled smaller than 80%... Not sure how much I scale it down, but it is small. https://i.imgur.com/aRhy159.jpeg ...

As mentioned earlier, I have many plans for this chassis in terms of bodyshell... And by the way, if you build one chassis for you, and work out a bodyshell adaptation you are putting on makerworld, let me know so I can add a link into the dedicated pancar 1/12 collection :) I started to work on the...

Its so over. When we wake up tomorrow thats it. Wish that final vote from the moderator didnt get cast. A tiebreaker shootout would have been pretty cool. Congrats silvertriple! I'm not sure when exactly it is over... A tie would be great, your Frog is really nice... And if it is over, thanks every...

I spend some time over the week-end to work on this bodyshell... It's not perfect yet and still requires some minor improvements... I finished the part under the bodyshell... https://i.imgur.com/itgspBk.jpeg As last time, I printed something to help the arch cut at the rear (on the front it is not n...

I could participate into such a Project of the Month/Year : I stoped counting the started/unfinished project at 15, and I probably started another few... But I'm not sure that an unsorted set of parts from 3 different builds of a given car can pretend to participate into :-) At least I see one inter...

The Carvera Air is now on a boat, from what I can see in the tracking of my order (it's not moving yet, though). It will take time before it gets to its new home. In the meantime, I'm getting prepared. I ordered a FoxAlien Vice to complement the Carvera and allow for easy positionning. This will req...

It's red... but not a Ferrari... It's a Leader, as there is no Vaillante on a track without a Leader :-) https://i.imgur.com/IX82gaD.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/ayCnCr5.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/QJX4B2R.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/DCpEJDG.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/G0l89O8.jpeg I'll make the files available ...

It's that time of the year where my printers are used for something else than RC car parts... It's prints that I do for my wife and the poney club hosting my wife's poneys https://i.imgur.com/B7vCGhI.jpeg Each plate is 100 tick remover, and I printed already a few of them... IsanMate ASA prints pere...
