Steel tubing thin wall hypodermic source?
89AKurt replied to 89AKurt's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Need a laser...... I had to search for what SEFAC is. No worries, someone else who owns Ferraris helped me on on my NART, so real help is welcomed! ? Good thing your name isn't Jane. ? -
Came out really nice!

Steel tubing thin wall hypodermic source?
89AKurt replied to 89AKurt's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I have the KA Models p-e, they only have the very end of the fins. I'd like to see you take a tiny drill, and start the hole on the curve of the steel tube! I break drills as it is, with flat plastic. -

I have no idea how to cut those slots. There is an oval tube in there, and spiral fins inside of those. Even 1/12 scale builders don't do that. -
Have to show #2 choice, the only street rod (with an engine) ever built, done in the early 1990s. Got an award for Paintjob Most Likely to Cause Globull Warming, and some other awards.

Ford vs Ferrari
89AKurt replied to Reeves Racing's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
When the movie came out, I asked what kits were available ( Suitable kits for 'Ford vs. Ferrari' film). Well done, thank you for posting your work. -
I'll pick only one. The history behind it is more interesting. After attending a GSL show, I camped near Goblin Valley State Park, hiked through a slot canyon, saw one rock that is the perfect scale version of "slick rock", found some similar ones, packed it home, almost forgot about it. When I found it, used up a diamond hacksaw blade cutting the rock in half. The kit is fairly common, not a street rod, sorry. It has won several first place awards.

I got one of those mini pipe cutters, never use it.

They usually command the Lazy Boy. Cooper named after the car I had, and Fuzz Therapy which is from a litter born here. They are well behaved. Model room is a separate building out back.

Glued in brass angle inside the bottom. Top of the front bumper getting diamond plate. Had to sand thinner for the top parts. Did the other front wheel since taking the picture. Needed to stretch my legs....... I give it a 4. Ripped up the first attempt, second build is more vertical. Need to figure out to make tow hooks, or use kit parts. The ax will also fit over the winch slot. The back is next. Have the lenses. ? Thinking about exhaust tips.......

First time ever, that I sponsored a category. Picked that because I never build that genre, and I'm odd.

Started on the suspension, front disk brake and hub carrier. There are no brakes in the kit, think those are Porsche 959 brakes. Removed 2-3 mm from each side of the hub carrier, glued the opened out brake part. The upper and lower A-arms are next, then steering rack. Then the half-shaft (blue line). Can't see the differential, hidden inside, that helps to fake it. The wheels all need major fixing. The axle shaft is removed one poly nut deep, all this should get longer suspension parts.

Hanging that cast iron V8 in back, built-in dodgy!

Made three versions of the front bumper, so the following are in the order of fabrication. Found some Alder hardwood scrap, cut to length. The bandsaw cut the mating surface to the front. The disk sander is used for doing the facets. Stuck on with Tacky glue, and looked at it. This is #1. #2. #3 version will have the 6 inch LED lights.

A masterpiece. I'm doing a barn find, just avoid all that effort. ?
