Re: Jammin Jay Replica Ad Car
velcro or something lol. maybe a drop of shoe goo probably, that should hold it down fine. i was going to braze 2 nuts on top, but it would take away from the look.littleVETTE wrote:what are you going to use to keep the top body piece stuck to the cage?
since these are "somewhat" easy to make lol, i might make like 5 of them and see what happens, i dont know what the hell to charge for em, dont want to shaft anyone but they take a while to make
ive been "slowly" building 3 jigs to pump out some real racing chassis's, been taking a while with this, but i am getting there.. once im there, i can probably make two a night.
with these though, i will probably aim for $150 each i would imagine. that will be unpowdercoated/painted and lightly cleaned (meaning ill sand and clean off most of the flux and crap, but there will be some hand sanding needed that i do not have the elbow grease to do anymore lol, honestly if its getting powdercoated, not much will need to be done other than smoothing and flux removal, which ill do, powder will hide alot, paint wont and alot of sanding will be needed to make it look flawless.)
if anyone is serious about wanting one... contact me through a PM.

Re: Jammin Jay Replica Ad Car
Don't know if you are going into this big time, but the guys who built brass slot cars use a rock tumbler filled with polishing media to get everything sweet looking. Check this thread:
