Christopher J Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 (edited) In another thread I mentioned weekend projects I do with my boys. Below are some builds I worked on with them. The Kenworth W900 and K123 are box stock quick builds that they were hands on with. The Lone Star and FLD (almost complete) are projects they were around for, but mostly watched while working on their stuff. Edited August 17, 2015 by Christopher J 1
Petetrucker07 Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Great lookin builds man. The paint work looks great on the Lonestar.
angelo7 Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 The W-900 is exactly as shown in the box art. One of my favorite kits. I've done three of those.
gatorincebu Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Real nice looking bunch of trucks you have there! Be Well Gator
freightshaker Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Very nice builds man, all of them a sharp clean builds. Thanks for posting!
#1Volsfan Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Some nice looking rigs. Really like the K123 cabover. Even better will be the memories your boys have of building with you. Great stuff.
19nova72 Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Great builds. I like them all. The cabovers KW makes me want to get started on my reissued kit. You guys keep building, and I will keep lookin'.
towman1271 Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 All great builds, but that lonestar is amazing! Great to hear your boys are into building too..keep em coming!
Jim B Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Some nice looking trucks you guys have there. Well done.
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Very nice builds! The cabover KW is my favorite!
Christopher J Posted August 17, 2015 Author Posted August 17, 2015 Thanks. I love old iron myself. If I could restore a truck it would be an old COE for sure.
Jonj238 Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Great trucks. What is your secret for gluing in the windows? I can't even see a hint of glue anywhere, even on the K123 which is very difficult to glue in the glass.
Christopher J Posted August 18, 2015 Author Posted August 18, 2015 For gluing in the glass on my car or truck builds I use clear E6000 or Shoo-goo. I put a tooth pick in the tube and put on small dabs, smear them flat just a touch and install the windows. I use light duty masking tape to hold the glass in if needed. If any oozes through the seams when pressure is applied I let it set up (50 to 60% dry) then come back with a sharp x-acto and gently cut through it and pull it away with tweazers.
