grille mesh

[crazyjim]

Sorry, I don't build big trucks like you folks do, but I'm looking for grille mesh/screen that could be used in your builds. I want to try scratch building my own air filters in 1/25 scale. Appreciate any help.

I'll keep my eyes open. Thanks for the info, Wheelman.

Plano Model Products has several different "HO" scale scatch builders photo etch screen that is PERFECT for use in 1/25 and 1/24 truck grills and air cleaners! I even talked him into making the style with the Peterbilt ovals in it. If you get ahold of him, tell him Ben sent you!

You can see pics of how the screen looks in my Fotki albums. www.public.fotki.com/lotso

Thank you, Ben. The Plano #215 mesh is what I was looking for. No Chuckyr, I don't build big trucks but I figured you truckers guys would know where to get grill materials. Thanks again, Ben.

Hey Jim, glad I could help!

Jim, if you have a Tobacco Shop in your area ask'em about Pipe Screens. They come in 1/2 - 3/4" circles made of Brass or Stainless Steel and generally cost less than $5 for 100 of'em.
