BRBO Mack R685ST
gotnitro? replied to gotnitro?'s topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Thanks I appreciate the feedback ! Yeah that etch grill really looked sharp. Hardest part using the etch grill was attaching the hinges in correct spot since the holes were molded into plastic grille. It would take serious surgery to remove this one now. I made a spacer for the other ones before I found my alignment issues Maybe on the next one haha -

Awesome work, seriously amazing details on such a small scale The wood deck really looks aged like how you captured the separate boards -

Well..its resolved. I ended up mocking up a spare chassis and everything dropped in perfect. Guess I tweaked the first chassis assembling it . Now a few more parts to install and the new frame will be ready for paint ! My buddy tbill hooked me up with a few pics of a properly assembled truck, and I spotted my firewall wasnt tight against the cowl, a quick tweak had that sorted out ! Thanks tbill And its sitting level on all the mounts now too bad I ruined the etch grill screwing with the other frame -

Well I hit a major issue...after mounting everything up , my cab and hood are seriously crooked. I noticed an issue after installing the hood w the etch grill..thinking it was my hinges I swapped the grill for the kit one..it didnt help I popped the cab off the mounts , installed hood then remounted cab..now its sitting like this. the hoods in the holes , no idea why it's so wacky ..but decided I better revisit this project after cooling down. I really considered myself a dog person..but lately I'm not sure..glad our Lab is loyal lol Any suggestions to fix it are welcome , I think it's the new frame rails made from the same tree lowes lumber comes from lol I might try using an older frame and drop the cab on it -

Gorgeous heavy duty tire combo, I suspect Jamie will have a tough time keeping these in stock..truck builders always love something different to set their builds apart -
