Re: Reefer Trailer
That is really nice. I especially like the air brake system you put in. Some details you just don't see on most trailers.

Re: Reefer Trailer
How did you do the pattern on the sides and the rear doors? The sides look like they are ribbed? The quilted/diamond pattern is a great detail to match the 1:1s.

Re: Reefer Trailer
It looks like a similar technique to what Karl Fischer used on his interior panels. He used a a bead roller. He's got a video about it on YouTube, look for "Make It Kustom". Same idea, just a smaller scale?

Re: Reefer Trailer
the rear doors I tape off the lines and scored with a razor blade knife. The side are made with a bead roller.
Thanks guys! |

Re: Reefer Trailer
When you say scored, did you actually cut into the metal, or did you use a dull blade to emboss it from the back side?
