yea I am lucky to have a job that gives me access to all these cool things. But even with all the cool stuff I still like to do things with manual machines and by hand.:D

I would also like to say that I am very impressed with a lot of the builders on here some of you do not have access to high tech equipment and manage to build some really amazing things. My biggest problem is that I do things to fast I lack the patience that is required for the real fine detail that some people put into there models. I like to make them work and then I want to move on. But I still have fun and enjoy what I do and that is what really matters after all this is a hobby.:)

Here are some new photos of the Bounder, not a lot of progress and some set backs. I had to open up the wheel openings to fit the King Hauler tires:mad:
and then I got one of them in the wrong spot so I had to cut out a piece and make a piece to insert and weld in it will look ok but it's just more work.:(

well I worked on the frame today despite the cold and burned up a bunch of fuel:lol: the rear leaf springs are from a Tamiya High lift and the fronts are from a King hauler[IMG]http://i979.photobucket.com/albums/a...r/DSCF1055.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i979.photobucket.com/albums/a...r/DSCF1054.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i979.photobucket.com/albums/a...r/DSCF1053.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i979.photobucket.com/albums/a...r/DSCF1052.jpg[/IMG]

I have been toying with the idea of using a cordless drill motor and gearbox assembly from a Ryobi drill that I have, its a two speed. Any ideas on that I just thought it would be a little different and unique.:bounce:
