1/32 Mack F700
The Brush replied to The Brush's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Thanks Ben, I downloaded a diagram of the spring & scaled it to size, made a template from wood, the bottom arc, then built up the springs with strips of plastic card from there the rest is from photo`s, The brake chambers should be more angled downward next time. Thanks Graham. -
Great work on this one, Those printers are very handy,

1/32 Mack F700
The Brush replied to The Brush's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Hi, Thanks for the replies, Heres a few more pics. I have made 3 frames-2 for the first builds & 1 to make a mould from, Also 3cabs + cleaned up parts & assembled to make the suspension & axles.I only had a normal axle to convert so for now it will have to do.till i get one with an offset diff, I used the half engine which can be cut out to fit a full engine -
Hi, I decided to finish off a couple of unfinshed projects, This is a build started a few years back, Mack F700, using a cab front from the pumper the rest is scratchbuilt. I had good intensions to build a few variants so i made a mould, Cab could also be used for a Brockway & Hayes. The rest of the truck will also be scratch built or adapted to a mack r frame if one ever became available, I have`nt seen any for sale lately. Heres a few pics to start us off.

Hi Great work on the kenworth, details really make it. I used that same colour on my Mack b61 but over a silver ground coat to lighten it a bit more. Graham. -
Hi, I thought i would post these pics of a scratchbuilt 1/24 diamond t i built many years ago, I used a 1/72 model to scale up from. Having no room to display larger models now i have decided to start selling some off this being the first.Made from plastic card with italeri hard tyres airbrushed green. spare parts & resin bits. back drop is printed vinyl.

As always very impressive build & great colours well done.

Hi, Finally taken pics of finished pete, Based on one of the first from the factory or so the photo caption said.Scratch built with homemade resin bits & few kit spare parts, I altered a amt kenworth aerodyne bumper to fit rather than a straight type. Trailer & cat dozer are another build from a few years back & just for a look to see them together. Thanks for looking.
