Randy, you obviously are not from this planet, humans aren't meant to do work this amazing. Now please go back to your home planet as you are definitely making the rest of us look bad. :D

This is one of the most incredible builds I've seen so far.

Randy....wherefore art thou....Randy? I think you may be allowing the truck and all of the parts to patina on your shelf but its sat there long enough. Don't even bother to dust it off, just please get back to work on it.

Every time I see there's an update to this thread I'm exceedingly hopeful you've provided us with another update and gotten some more work done on your build. Alas, this is not the case. Sigh...

Thanks Joe ! The conduit is just copper wire wrapped around a wire core....

The brass benzels are made with a slice of tubing that is given a concave shape using the dapping tool.

Randy

Randy, Glad your back at it. I need to haul out something and get it built! Been messing with rims far too long! This is still my #1 inspiration! Keep it coming!

Before I could say anything, I first had to lift up my jaw from the floor...

But, even now, I get no matching words, this is so incredible! B)B)B)

Randy my friend, I've never seen anyone applying such attention to detail and no one who performs it so well, hat off!
