[1/12 Tamiya Ferrari 312b]

Just a little update. I got my oldest moved out, re did 3 rooms in my house and built a outdoor pavilion for the wife.

Hopefully will be back at this build real soon.

I am in awe on the detail. Looks amazing!

On your big car. Do you have wheelie bars and parachutes for it? As it sits it looks like it will do low 6's

Thanks for the suggestions! Everyone, I really appreciate this

looking good! can't wait for more

[Looking for clear detailing tubing]

Does it have to be tubing (i.e., hollow)? I'd be willing to be you can find some clear monofilament fishing line about that size.

You can also heat-stretch clear styrene sprue to whatever diameter you want. Getting it exactly to your desired dimension will probably take some practice, and you'll probably make several unsuitable pieces for every usable one you produce, but the price is right and it doesn't require any special equipment or unique skill.

 

It would be nice I have some RB Motion fittings that are used for Williams F1 kit. Trying to adapt those fitting on a Ferrari Kit. All the photos I have seen Ferrari used a clear tubing on there fuel system

[Looking for clear detailing tubing]

Anyone know where I can locate some. I would like the inside 

diameter 0.66 mm or .026 in

thank you all for the help

Looking forward to seeing this one in progress

i bet it may cost as much as your garage....lol

Bruce: Yup, going to do more detail painting also going to ad more detail to the radiator and I am going to re do the oil coolers

Another move!? must be hard on you and your family. Hope all goes well

Nick and Peter going to get some stuff from Pro Tech soon, thanks for the tip. Seems to be the place to go

Now if I could just wrap my head around small sizes I will be golden.....LOL

What are people using for battery terminals?

[1/12 Tamiya Ferrari 312b]

This is kind of an update..... LOL

I just received some alclad aluminum,polished brass and some clear

I also got some small goodies from RB Motion realizing I will need to order more!

I was wondering if any one knows where I could find braided line? I kind of need it in .125 would prefer Black if its available

So hear is the sad part I will not be able to get some quality time to work on this. But the best part is my Daughter is graduating college

and she is moving out of the house; I get a HOBBY ROOM!!!!

Plus the wife has a few  projects that's going to keep me a little busy

[1/12 Tamiya Ferrari 312b]

Chris: Thanks for the links, I placed an order with RB Motion!!

now I have to tell the wife

[1/12 Tamiya Ferrari 312b]

Bruce: Thank you! Three moves! wow must be hard to find time to unwind.

I have seen the work you have done on the WR1, it looks amazing

[1/12 Tamiya Ferrari 312b]

Thank you, I'll try. I just have to remember not to rush it

Thank you all for this, it really helps 

Chris

[Attaching brass mesh to plastic]

Thank you for the reply!, I am going to try 2 part epoxy 

i think my biggest problem is that the service area to bond is so small

[Attaching brass mesh to plastic]

I am trying to put brass mesh on top of intake trumpets. I have tried med CA with no luck

Any suggestions

I am happy to see you are back at it, Maybe I will learn something.

I also got the oil tanks completed.

i would have to say the oil cooler, the parts in gloss white

where a bear. Trying to fill the seam in the center.

[1/12 Tamiya Ferrari 312b]

I got some quality time to work on the build tonight 

plug wires all done couple little bits for the fuel injection 

i just have the velocity stacks and exhaust to do

i do wish I had the ability to make my own velocity stacks.the kit ones are a little cheesy.

but they will have to do.

thanks for looking

 

[1/12 Tamiya Ferrari 312b]

I have been working on this project,it's been a little slow but sometimes frustrating
