Casting or epoxy rein
customsrus replied to customsrus's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I’ve used alumilite in the past and some good results. I’m just wanting to do small parts such as wheels, motor parts, etc. -
Which is better to cast small parts. Casting resin or epoxy resin.

Thank to Keef for supplying the wheels needed. Much appreciated Keef. Hope to return the favor.

Thanks. I appreciate the comments.

Thanks Ace for the comments. I get a lot of inspiration from your builds. I have to make another buck for the canopy, previous one failed miserably. There is definitely a learning curve to vacuum forming. Eventually I might get it right. What type of material would you suggest on the buck. The buck I had was made of wood with a bondo thin coat applied to get it smooth.

Thanks. Oldsmobile is not 100% accurate but I did the best I could.

Finally got some the engine and chassis completed. Still need to attach the radiator and hoses and call it done. Thanks for looking.

Bob Denvers custom taxi from TVs 'The GoodGuys'

Looks good. -
Update. Got the engine almost completed. Unfortunately due to miss calculations the engine does not fit in the engine bay as it is suppose to. So I either have to modify the passenger inner fender to fit or I will have to find smaller carburetors. Thanks for looking.

57 Chevy Bubbletop pickup

Same here, always like a custom. -
Very cool build.

Thanks for you comments. I did the Oldsmobile F-88 years ago. I attached a couple of pictures of the real car and my build. Thanks for looking

I wanted to try to resin cast the body but I’m not 100% sure that I wouldn’t ruin the body. So I made another one using the same AMT 53 corvette. There are some differences between two. The stock one has a straight 8 so I figure this one will probably end up with a V-16 or maybe something more exotic. I will probably start a new post on this one soon. Thanks for looking.
