hotrod59f100 Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 I'm building a few lowered vehicles and need to know what size styreen beems or rods Is good for for making frames. My hobby shop doesn't Carry any of it. Also whats a good size sheet streen for body patches? The scale I need it for is 1/24-1/25
a/gass Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 body patches - (cheep) use jewl cases (CD and CASSETS) ?
Guest Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 I bought some C channel styrene for a future '30s hot rod project and it's 3/16 or .188 which scales out to 4.7 inches in scale. You would probably want something in the 5/16 range which would scale out to 7.9 inches. 3/8 would be 9.5 inches. For patches, I use .040 thick styrene which is close to the same thickness as most kit bodies.
