Re: Get them into it while there young

Re: 3D Printed 1/5 Scale 77 Ford F350
Truck looks OUTSTANDING!! The 3d printing is some of the best I have seen. Looks like it will not take too much filling and sanding to get a great looking body.

Re: Bucyrus Erie crane truck
I agree with modelman. Build the one you have the most info on or can get the most info on. Should be an interesting build.

Re: Demag TC 500 truck crane in scale 1/24
Excellent machining on the wheels and frame work. Question for you- how are you fastening the wheel centers to the rims on the front 3 axles? Are the center bolts and nuts gripping on the rim?

Re: Clean & Mean Grand Hauler Build
Mr. Anderson, Why does Tamiya always make it a complete pain to change motors or the pinion gear in the semis and F350 style trucks? You either have to completely (not quite) disassemble the vehicle...

Re: Want to help us?
Nice to see someone from Tamiya asking what people in the US might want for a new RC vehicle.
Survey completed.
Thank you for the opportunity to voice my opinion.

Re: Hayes HD Dump Truck - Take II
Your way of machining the grooves is not wrong. Just another way of doing it. I normally use WD40 or a cutting/tapping fluid for coolant. Never thought about using alcohol. Would not be as messy!!

Re: Hayes HD Dump Truck - Take II
Thanks for the quick answers! Another ?? for you- Why didn't you turn the grooves in the wheels instead of milling them? I know, I know, lots of silly ?'s but this is the way you learn things :D:D
