Volvo and Race Trailer
Kenny B replied to kilrathy10's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
JT, as always a true masterpiece. You must be running out of space to park all your big rigs. I have extra room if needed. Very nice job on both truck and trailer. Ken. -
1/16 Scale Peterbilt 359 Large Car
Kenny B replied to Kenny B's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
JT, Thanks. I have a piece of what ever you want to call it to use for the trailer. The good side is like a mirror and the back side is like the material you use for counter tops. The good side is not made of glass feels more like a thin piece of metal. I have measured it and would be able to make a 48' for sure but no room for errors. I don't know how I would cut it. I was thinking of going to a glass place to see if they might know. I'm thinking that it is a vandal proof mirror that they use in public washrooms. Any ideas???? I just down loaded a couple of pictures for you to look at. It has a total of three layers, total measurements is 3mm thick. Thanks, Ken. -
1/16 Scale Peterbilt 359 Large Car

Clayton, Thanks, I looked at a lot of paint jobs on line and when I found Sledgehammer I fell in love with it. I wanted something different and what a task that turned out to be. I had a picture on my desktop background for months, and looked at it for hours wondering how it would look and how I would go about painting it on. The wife got tired of looking at it on the desktop background. I really surprised myself on how well it turned out. I hope the rest of the paint turns out as well as the hood did. It sure is a lot of work masking it off. Ken. -

I just finished painting the rest of the hood. Here is a what the rest of the truck will look like. The hood was the first to be painted and I was so excited that I needed to show it to everyone. Wow, a lot of masking. Thanks, Ken. -

Instruction sheet? What is that?
Kenny B replied to Petetrucker07's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I get the instruction sheet out and set it out in front of me. Then I have to go all the way down stairs to get my glasses to read them. I get down stairs and forget what I went down there to get . Ken. -

Stretched Revel W-900
Kenny B replied to fantacmet's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Michael, I spray easy off original, let it sit for a half an hour or so and start scrubbing. Spray and scrub again. I've never let it sit over night. Works for me. Ken. -
Steven, I'm not trying to discourage you but that 8" sleeper would be a 200" sleeper on a real truck. That is a motor home. Try searching for custom sleepers to get some ideas. Even the sleepers that JT or myself are doing are only 100" 1:1. The frame really needs to be reinforced also for the weight. Ken.

Stretched Revel W-900
Kenny B replied to fantacmet's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I use easy off and a old tooth brush. Once you put water to the easy off it will not work. So easy off and no water. Scrub lightly with a old tooth brush.Once your done then rince well and wash with soap and water. Use a good primer before you paint the colour you want. As far as paint colours I would go with silver with a nice clear red over top and black strips. Or as JT would do. Paint it ORANGE. Good luck. Ken. -
