Re: 3d printed airbag suspension

Is the cross member printed also? Hard to tell but looks like a casting. Love the overall look. Really hoping the ninja flex works out.

Re: Great Dane excavating co.

Thanks for explanation. I agree that your particular setup doesn't need to slip back and forth during actual use and your two spline setup will work fine. Just noticed it in one of your pictures...

Re: Great Dane excavating co.

Very nice, I like the idea of combining set screws with pins to connect the parts. Using thread lock to keep them from backing out? Also, how did you make the slip joint? Broach?

Re: 3d printed parts

OK, wasn't sure why you were interested in the 4 filament system but have know those who did think that they could greatly increase the speed of printing by going that route. Given the size of some...

Re: 3d printed parts

A 4 filament system isn't going to make your printing speed any faster. Can only use one at a time. Multiple filament systems are used when you want to print in multiple colors or use different...

Re: Mercedes Actros SLT

Beautiful work, one of the nicest looking trucks I've seen. Photographed outdoors with the proper background and I don't think you could tell it from the real truck. Thanks very much for sharing...

Re: 3d printed lowboy conversion

That really looks pretty good. When all painted and finished it will make a great little equipment hauler. Looks like standard Tamiya suspension at rear?

Re: Tamiya box (freight) trailer

Visit Michigan. I always wanted to have the tire concession for that state. Five to seven axles per trailer is pretty much the norm there.

Re: Wheel Modification

Those wheels were actually what I thought I was going to get when I first started to think about building this truck. I'd seen them on other trucks and really like the look of them. Then I saw the...

Re: Wheel Modification

Thanks for compliments guys, they are appreciated.

Wheel Modification

I have started work on building a model of a truck I used to operate many years ago. I am trying to make it as true to the original as I can. The original truck had painted wheels instead of fancy...

Re: Great Dane excavating co.

Thank you very much, great information. I've never done hydraulics before but have started on a project that will require me to fabricate my own cylinders as what I need to stay reasonably to scale...

Re: W900 Studio Sleeper Project

I use Alclad II lacquers fairly frequently. They work well if you take your time and really prep the surface. Sand through at least 2000 grit, even finer if you can. Make sure surface is clean....
