outlaw035 Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 jerred...luv the truck specially the buz saw...thats wild....wish i thought of it...
Ryan S. Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Great buzz saw! How did you do the teeth? Looks like it was time consuming, but worth it!
Jantrix Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Hey Jerred, the saw looks cool as heck. You need to turn it 90 degrees though. Having it vertical your not gonna get many zombies. Turn it horizontal and you'll ace everything that comes between the headlights.
hotrod59f100 Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Man I can just picture a zombie split in half by that beast of a buzz saw. Lol Jarred I give you kudos if you cut that blade by hand .
hotrod59f100 Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 (edited) Lol i watched that today on fx channel. . Edited March 10, 2012 by hotrod59f100
Kit Basher Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Hey Jerred, that is mean! The support structure on the front is cool, and that buzz saw is over the top! This reminds me I still need to put shocks on mine, gonna be a rough ride otherwise. Your shocks look great.

Foxer Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Truck and saw is mean looking, Jerred .. looks like a do it yourself meat packing plant!
rustymodeler Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Thanks for all the great comments guys. I cut it with a dremel, I just cut small straight lines all the way around the circle and then went back over them at an angle. There are some rough looking spots in the blade, but that is going to come with sawing cars and large debris in half. Rob I was going to turn it 90 degrees, but my main purpose is to clear large debris out of my way do to the fact that I will probably be somewhere at the front of the convoy. I will probably make another one at 90 degrees and attach magnets to them so I can interchange them. My plans are to build one with spikes, one that is just flat for bull dozing, one at 90 degrees and one that has some kind og gun or flame thrower on the front of it. Jerred
rustymodeler Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 I think I may have come up with a name. Tell me if you like it or not. HEAR EVIL, SPEAK EVIL, SAW EVIL
Zarana-X Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 (edited) Awesom rig, Jerred. I agree with the horizontal saw being more effective. For your engine, a good wash and some highlights should help bring it out. Running engines don't get that rusty. Also, those tires are directional, they should all be facing the way the left front one is. Edited March 10, 2012 by Zarana-X
rustymodeler Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Thanks Jason. The tires are just mocked up right now, and the engine isnt done yet either. I have along ways to go on this yet.
TimberWolf429 Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Hey Jerred I love the idea about the saw, looks like your truck and my Widow Maker might be the frontliners, you saw em apart, I blast em with the cannon
rustymodeler Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Heres for the guys who wanted the 90 degree saw for zombie slaying fun.
RodneyBad Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 Great looking SawBlades. Looks like you'll be cutting the Zombies in half.. Got some painting done on mine.
BIGBLOCKLUV Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 how r u guy getting the welded look on the edge ofur panels:)
RodneyBad Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) how r u guy getting the welded look on the edge ofur panels:) Lil bit of extra spru (or small Evergreen round rod)and a Wood burning tool (or soildering gun) with a point. Basically, just like welding on a 1:1. Edited March 11, 2012 by RodneyBad
ZombieHunter26 Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 I'm a little late on the pics, and for this I apologize- but we all know how life can catch up to ya and disrupt your personal time. This is the first of two models I'm collaborating with my father on- All I've done so far is tweak a few things, and give it a primer coat. It was originally painted black on the exterior and white on the interior. I also carefully removed the wheels to better paint the rims and axles. More progress as it comes.
rustymodeler Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 Rodney, that paint job is sweet man. Rob, I am really digging that. Is the cab from the midnight cowboy?
ZombieHunter26 Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 Jerred, I'm not sure. I believe my dad scratchbuilt a good portion of this one. I'll have to ask him!
Zarana-X Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 Awesome Work, Rodney. I'm in awe of the working hinges and plow. I suck at fabrication like that.
