Very impressive modeling skills to say the least. I can only imagine what you will be turning out with that Mill..

Hi everyone! This is my first post for the site, although I am a long time custom builder of scale stuff ranging from 1/64 all the way up to 1/10 scale. If you are going for scale IMHO you should stay around .060. As Futureattraction stated this will be right around 1 5/8" tubing, going up to .080 will put you at almost 2" 1/24 scale tubing. I did some searching and one site stated they are building Pro Mod tube chassis in 1 5/8" and the smaller 1 1/4" tubing. Now I know some builders and even model companies will up size just due to the parts. But I have to say for me even the 1/16 scale Pro Mod I am working on going above these numbers throws the scale off if I jump to anything larger then .100 and the smaller .080 (which works out to be the same size diameter you are looking at). But it really boils down to what you want to work with and what is easiest for your to handle.
