Re: Forum News & Discussion

I'm currently attempting to better organize the 'Other Makes/Models' forum by creating sub-forums within it for some of the manufactures.

Re: Bormac's Nichimo Midships 443 WDS - An unexpected project

That's a very good proof of concept , considering you never intended it to be used in this way and it was early work it's far from anything to be ashamed of , next one will be spot on I'm sure :!: Most of the faults could probably be addressed by just reworking the buck , it would need sanding and f...

Re: Dadio's 3D Printing Stuff

Remodelled the Holiday Buggy gears to fit 8x4x3 bearings , stock they just run naked on the 4mm shaft without even bushings , both gears now need a spacer as well now , I'll get a set pro printed next month to check the model then add them to my shop .

Re: Forum News & Discussion

It took a week, but I think I'm pretty much done organizing the 'Other Makes/Models' forum. It was way worse than I ever expected it to by. There were also a lot of topics and whatnot that had to be removed. It seemed to be the catch-all place for just about everything. A new forum ended up emerging...
