CarbonNglass Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 I have been reading this post from start to finish. The scratch building is amazing. I was always wondering how I would do this for my build I'm doing. This will make things way easier for me to accomplish. Your work is impressive to say the least.

89AKurt Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Since I've been absent much of the year, missed seeing this project. I have 2 WIP stalled because I'm challenged by the suspension, this is great inspiration! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobthehobbyguy Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 This project is a showcase of some amazing scratchbuilding techniques. Your approach to doing the rollcage is brillant. The interior work is also great. Hope you can figure out a solution to the problem will be very helpful for others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be going back and doing a thorough read from beginning to end. Very nice!! Is this one in the “yard sale”?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullybeef Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 I’m so glad that this thread resurfaced, I just finished reading from start to… we’ll where you left off haha. There is so much useful information in here, I love your ability to think outside the box and create useful soloutions, ie your CAD templates and using clear acetate as a template. Your build has opened my eyes to new building techniques and I have to say I love the articulated hand pointing out the details. The mini engine stand/rotisserie is an absolute marvel. well done mate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 (edited) Much approval for your careful, clean, layout and construction techniques. Your reference to a "poor man's milling machine" is a great reminder that it's not necessary to have a complete miniature machine shop to produce outstanding work. Some fine stuff going on here. EDIT: Just like building a real car from the ground up...only smaller. Edited December 30, 2021 by Ace-Garageguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian McLaren Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Amazing scratch building skills! Your templating and measurement transferring processes are inventive and effective.
