Wow, that's just super! The tire looks OK too I guess.

Seriously, that looks fantastic for a first attempt! It's too bad the materials cost so much because I'm sure if you built a few more they would be perfect before too long. Keep up the great work!

I don't want everyone to think I'm a rude boy.

Yeah, I see the possibility of a reprimand. Lol!!!

And yes this isn't on the cheep side. I did look at other materials but longevity won out. And went with this type. I really didn't spent much time with the part prior to making the mold. Figured equipment tire a few blemishes,,,,, I think I'm going to start working on a two piece rim and the axle next. Figure if a design change needs to happen better not make them all. I'm trying to make the weight of the truck on the axle and not on the motor shaft. Like a post of joes when he was building the adt. Any idea where to source 1 1/2 I d bearings that are not much bigger on the o.d.? And cheep?

For thin bearings, try looking here: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from...earing&_sop=10

Very nice job Cooper. You can fill the imperfections with some black silicone. Ed

Cooper , when you got the banebot gearbox , did you get it with the steel ring gear or the aluminum 1 ? I saw they come standard with the aluminum . To get the steel you have to order special .
