I think this has been asked before, but can't remember when and can't find the post. Who makes the MT drag radials 1/25 scale on here? Who makes the resin turbos? Looking for several of each for new projects. Thanks.

[crazyjim]

Ma's Resin for the tires and I believe Shucky does turbos.

[FAST442]

These guys are on here a lot?? Thanks

I have tried to get some stuff from Shucky awhile back but I am not sure he is still casting. I know there is another guy on another board, Dom87SS who makes KILLER drag radials and turbos. Might want to check with him.

Here's Ma's Resin http://public.fotki.com/cnaind/

Shucky posts here. You should be able to find him in a member search.

Ma's is the best choice on the tires. I have a couple sets and they are fabulous. The other person wanted 40.00 a set when I asked because they are 3d printed rubber. No thanks. Because I have received an overwhelming number of requests for turbos, I may be doing a special run of the "x-large" size next month sometime. I will make a post when they are available, so be kind to my inbox. For the record, I stopped doing resin over a year ago because it took too much time away from my personal projects. I now only do resin for myself lol ... but on special occasion I will make some stuff for other folks.

No more resin?? Bummer. There's been some activity requesting turbo's and I keep mentioning your name. I sold some rat rod seats to a guy in England and he wants turbo's. If you have any interest, PM a real email address to me and I'll get it to Patrick - or I can provide you with Patrick's email.

shucky, if you do make another batch of those turbos, I would like to get a few too!

Two lessons learned here:

1. When a hobby becomes a job, it can take the fun out of it.

2. When you see something in resin, get it while you can because the source can dry up without notice.

Shucky, I commend you for realizing that resin casting was consuming your time and you had to prioritize things. While some might not understand that, I do and know that some things are more important than others.

Best of luck!

I know Dom from another forum and his stuff is always top notch

[C.C.RACER]

Shucky, I want to be included in the turbo run. I would like to have 10 please. Let me know when you have them done.
No hurry,take your time as I also understand how life happens and things have to happen as they need to. Good luck

If you ever do any 1/16th stuff, I'm in !

Ma's has pictures of the MT Drag Radials on their Fotki site, but no mention in their price list. I too inquired about a set from another caster and want to see my options, price-wise.

[cnaind]

The smaller (275-60x15) , the bigger ones (325-50x15) All cast in soft rubber.







Mike (Shucky) is right about not having any personal time when you get into casting. I reached that point quite a while ago but decided to push on as I hate to turn a fellow modeller away. However.....at this time I will take drag radial orders but not take any other new orders until I'm caught up & finish the masters for the cars I've been working on. I enjoy the challenges of mastering/casting but have run out of spare time & need to replenish my supply.

[blackandwhite]

so you are taking orders or not..? sorry, the wording is a little fuzzy

[george 53]

I THINK cuzzin Al is sayin he'll ONLY take orders for the drag radials, an nothing else right now, till he's caught up on his 'Other' masters.

[blackandwhite]

lol, thanks for that clarification.

Do I place an order through a pm or ..?

[Casey]

lol, thanks for that clarification.

Do I place an order through a pm or ..?

Send him a PM, please.

[crazyjim]

Al's pieces are works of art. Those drag radials are beautiful.

[cnaind]

Thanks for the kind words guys; I try to make everything as best I can. I will still take drag radial orders only.

If anyone is interested I'll start a new post to show where my new supply of spare time is going.......
