Looking good dude

Do it right...

Spraying is definitely the way to go. It makes for nice even coats. Here is what I use

You can brush light coats and dry it with a hair dryer as well.

Afternoon Everyone...Its been a while since i posted a thread. I recently had the pleasure of taking out my RCP Wreckluse for a run. I also attached a GoPro to record the fun from Willy's perspective and to share. https://live.staticflickr.com/7844/45951979365_9f427800b7_b.jpg Set to 1080 for best r...

Thank you.

I used the early version GoPro, silver with no view screen. I attached it to the wreckluse with plastic velcro

I envy your patience.
It's the fiddling with settings to make the darn thing work that kept me away from printing for so long. I just don't have the patience for that sort of thing. I expect everything to work like a toaster.

This is a photo from left to right of Mr & Mrs Ed Sholl, and my Grandparents Bob & Mary Schenk. Ed and Bob were both career machinists. I took the photo in 1984 where I introduced my Grandparents to Ed and his wife. Ed originally started to build this train when raising his son. Unfortunatel...

Kyosho's decade long commitment to Monster Truck lovers was hard to deny in this two-page spread from 1997 displaying their range of 2WD, 4WD, Electric, and Nitro powered kits: USA-1 - 1/10 4wd electric Monster Truck released in 1990. Based off the Big Brute. Dual motor, molded ABS tub chassis and s...

Well, those prints look great. There's nothing wrong with your printer.

I've ordered some transparent PETG. I hear it can be tricky to print but hopefully I'm able to make some clear lenses.

Of course not... you've been too busy lately building GT's and Vettes and Buggys!

But maybe an Enduro Crawler chassis could be in the Durango's future

In 1998 Kyosho released their latest generation Inferno 1/8 Nitro off-road buggy, the MP-6. Its designation, short for "Model Project #6", this sixth generation that was started by the Burns MP-1 in 1991 was an evolutionary design that resulted in a model largely similar to its MP-5 predec...

In 1998 Kyosho unveiled a new 1/10 4wd Nitro on-road model, the MOONEYES Street Van. MOONEYES was opened by Dean Moon in 1950 and produced speed parts for the burgeoning hot rod market. The company was purchased by Dean's friend Shige Suganuma in 1992 who has operated MOONEYES USA and MOONEYES Yokoh...

I just took a risk on this and I'm hoping I don't get bit by the "If it's too good to be true" bug...
It's free shipping from China and due to deliver between 5/19 & 5/30.

I guess I will grab some popcorn and wait

Has new window frame decals, a nice touch as well.
