  1. I order from Hobbylinc all the time, yes they are slow, prices are good and inventory is good. I try to plan my orders so that they arrive when needed. Still faster than my orders from Canada, due to shipping.
  2. Just spent the last two days tearing apart my work area after knocking a plastic organizer on the floor due to my lack of organization over the years. Added four more organizing bins, cleaned all the desk drawers and both cabinets out, trying to organize my truck kits.
  3. That’s cool, I use a lot of those decals, nicely done.
  4. i think this will work, finish up trailer to fit this truck.
  5. Headache rack fabricated, some finish work. Will add slam locks and flashing yellow lights.
  6. Outstanding craftsmanship, enjoy watching your builds
  7. Had to stop , clean and reorganize my work space. Added some storage bins, got rid of some stuff, cleaned all the drawers out, found stuff I didn’t know I had. Back to the build.
  8. Battery boxes built, will add polished aluminum steps, getting started on headache rack.
  9. That color scheme is going to look really good, well done
  10. Lookin good, good start
  11. I just purchased a CL700 Mack day cab from GSMT, appreciate the tips you used to make it more realistic, very helpful.
  12. Outstanding build, nicely done
  13. Great looking build and love the story
  14. Nicely done, looks really good.
  15. It started as an experiment, just spraying from the can and it worked really well. Just repeated that process for the wheels but took my time. Happy with the look.
  16. I think I am going for an industrial look 3 axle tractor for my 53 ft, 4 axle drop deck trailer. Just need a really cool headache rack to build.
  17. Rear frame extensions made and installed, removed the hinged dump truck extensions and save for another project. Correct length fuel tanks built, now to build the fuel tank mounts/straps.
  18. Lookin good, like the colors
  19. Stretched the frame an 1 1/4 in so that I can add larger fuel tanks. Tank in pic is for mock-up, I will scratch build fuel tanks and battery boxes with steps. Wanted to keep wheelbase as compact as I can for a heavy hauler. Need to clip the rear of the frame and save the hinge portion (for the dump bed) for another day/project. Any good ideas for a headache rack with storage boxes?
