  1. To build this piece from scratch, while understanding the engineering, design, and execution of it all, via a 3D print system....is amazing in itself! I haven't yet dove into printing,but I may contact you for advice if I do!! The added touches... like the leather on the seats....wow! Again..keep it up!!
  2. This build is amazing. From the engineering of the parts, fit, and functionality. Might I suggest though, sanding and filling some parts to eliminate the printing layer lines before painting? Keep it going, looking forward to more progress!

    Trailer hitch

    VCG makes a nice one also
  4. Looks like an old Boyd wheel or Dodge PU?
  5. My first try at making molding was for some side trim. I used a scriber and a straight edge to clean out the middle of some flat styrene. (pics 1-2) My second method is cutting a shape into the edge of a razor blade and scraping along the flat styrene. Guides are sometimes helpful and or needed.(pics 3-4)
  6. Set up at the Sharon,PA show......the deals were abundant today.. ramp truck..15 Mercury pu..15 Maverick..10 Black Beauty..5 All built ups..5 ea Plus some BMF and Moebius pu..33
  7. I have a sealed one, wondering the molded color before I open it.(AMT) Thanks!
  8. This is a current reissue of the black version that's been done several times.
  9. You are mentioned because you have set a high bar for quality and service!
  10. This arrived today, a bit worse for the wear. Came wrapped well in bubble wrap and only a plastic mailing bag. Kit seems unharmed. Also, engine was started, which wasn't stated or shown in pics.
  11. Finally made it out to the shop, I've been under the weather for a couple of weeks.

    If it's something you might do more of, I would consider buying styrene from the guy on eBay. It's more pliable to make bends with and it holds the shape. Here's some examples...
  13. Another addition to the racing portion of the stash...
  14. This came the other day, I have been waiting for a decent price on one.
  15. Made a pair of brackets for the blower/hose connection. My idea was to mount 1 lower for the bucket filter, and 1 higher if I end up venting to a window. They need to trimmed a bit yet, but you get the picture.
  16. I have some small tube lights from a unit I built before, or some type of LED.
  17. Cut out the base skeleton (not shown after excess removed) .... silicone and clamped it in place, cut the exhaust hole, and made channels for the filter.
  18. Thanks, blessed with abilities in many areas. I've learned much from combining genres ...ie; woodworking, metal working, painting, etc. The metal is a little heavier than it needs to be, but it was free!! And to imagine, costing way less to make than many brand names.
  19. Yep... that's an inherited trait! LOL. Learned early on from my dad to do things right the first time, less problems later and a better product in the end.
  20. Today's advancement... back, top, and floor support.
  21. As in another thread, I mentioned I like using thin CA first. Then start sanding, and continue with primers as needed.
