  1. OMG, that was a surprise to look at, WELL done?, love to see builders breaking boundaries
  2. Nice job on those tanks.
  3. Wrapped the bed up with all the marker lights. Little bit more detailing on the engine and radiator. Make two mufflers and finish exhaust next. Quick mock-up to check hood clearance
  4. Thanks, little bit more finish work, then finish the engine.
  5. Glad to see you back in the hobby, neighbor ?use to live in Interlochen, moved just east of Manton about 15 years ago.
  6. Outstanding build, good to see something new.
  7. Retired as well and I live very north. When it’s raining, snowing or cold, I spend three to four hours a day, maybe five days of the week. The warm months I am working on our property and don’t spend much time at my bench
  8. Thanks Jeff, I will look up/find some of these to try.
  9. Need some help or advise. I purchased these photo etched marker lights and I struggled with cutting them free, I did buy a fixture for bending photo etched parts (that worked well), struggled handling the small parts and getting them located. I used super glue which limited my time to adjust the positioning. What glue do you use, what tools do you use to handle these very small parts? The three I installed are acceptable but not perfect
  10. Outstanding build, looks good with truck and trailer.
  11. Ooooh I like it, idea for a future build, rollers and a lift bed. Also thought of a flatbed with a crane to unload pallets of bricks/blocks.
  12. Few more details on the bed then I can move on to finish engine and under chassis exhaust.
  13. Nice build Alex, love those Ford truck builds.
  14. Steve: It looks out of scale, too big, but I am going with it. Brandon: I am using Balsa wood strips from Hobby Lobby
  15. Fantastic skills, will be following this build
  16. Not sure I am happy with the rear bumper.
