  1. I just got the spindle mount Halibrands finished also.
  2. Thanks Charlie I never thought of Buick drums. I make disc brake rotors I will have to get started on drums. We have 10% off this month Jeff.
  3. That is turning out so cool. I have to admit when you started it I thought you may have had brain damage. I guess just did not have your vision.
  4. Clay is fine I talked to him last week and I am making some parts for him for this and other builds.
  5. This is the first thread I look at each day. Outstanding builders on here. Here is a Harley drive pulley set I made for a forum members 1/12 Revell kit.
  6. I started making a bunch of Halibrands in 1/25 scale sizes a few weeks ago and now it is sell better than everything else put together. I would have never guessed there was such a market for them.
  7. Outstanding! I was at the Indy 500 Museum Sunday and took some photos of the #4 car there.
  8. Here is some Halibrands I made last week they are 1/25 scale. The tires are NOT scratch built just the wheels. ( I did not want to get yelled at )
  9. Look in Good! Great job on the tubs. This is one of those builds were you have to keep reminding yourself it is not 1:1 while looking at the pictures. I made a cabinet to keep finished parts from getting dusty. It is not perfect but keeps 95% of the dust off. It has a glass door so I can remember what is in there. I do keep a couple of the silicon bag thingy in it to keep the humidity down. I also have a dehumidifier in the room. It is real hilly here were I live and never much of a breeze so humidity is a problem.

  11. This is turning out fantastic! I got the wheels done and will send them in the morning.
  12. Great race, I was recovering from a hospital stay. Very glad there was good TV all weekend.
  13. I feed the chickens scratch every morning. I had no idea you could build builds with it
  14. The best miniature drill bits I have used is from ebay seller Drillman1.
  15. Grandpa had an Indian motorcycle I saw pictures of. I remember him always riding a old Honda Dream. He also had a 66 Chevelle SS. He passed away two years ago. He had a cool life he came to America in the late 20s and had adventures his entire life. Grandma is still alive at 93. She is a 4' 9" tall American Indiana that is still going at 110%. The only car she ever had was a 71 Pinto. I must have fixed that car 15 times after she got in fender benders.
  16. It is just to stiffen it up. The ones we used to make we just put two hiems and a short pc of tubing.
  17. The wheels look good. Kinda like Keystone's on steroids.
  18. Looking great can't wait to see more.
  19. Love it, Do your eyes hurt after that one?
  20. First time I have seen 7 lug wheels.
  21. That's too cool for words.
