Plus the eletric car cost a few thousand more then a normal car,,, I DON'T SEE WERE THE SAVING ARE,, I pay more for a electric car, to save gas,,and pay more for electric,, The math doesn't add up.. -

Help needed with vacforming body's
rel14 replied to The Creative Explorer's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Don't know much about it, but i do know from reading, the body needs to be off the surface a 1/4-1/2 inch so the Plastic can seal to the bottom edge of the body. Learned that the hard way also.. ( If your making a junk yard scene ya got some good banged up bodys to start with) Up the heat, and move vacuum.. some of them use a vacuum tank to get a good fast pull.. plastic cools off if ya go to slow.. -
