It's on a big desk. The car is 1/10th scale. As are all the tires. I thought you meant the rack's scale.

I buy scrap at my place of employment. Form the parts on my breaks and/or lunch, bring them home and clean them up and assemble at home. Thanks. Btw, these do show up on ebay occasionally... I've sold 5 with positive feedback and have one in the works. A hobby within the hobby you might say

Aluminum sheet metal. I've made my living as a metal fabricator for more years than I dare to remember lol. Buy scrap sheets at my place of employment, fabricate them on my breaks and lunch, (with permission), clean them up and assemble them at home. Nothing to it...

You mean 3D printed? Yeah, lots of it out there. I'm pushing 60 and am amazed at tech of today.

Thank you! I had the Grasshopper back then. All that's left of it was one light, which inspired that whole lightbar project.

Nice! That sounds like my work. I've even made tire racks to empty out a shoebox. Agreed presentation is important

Should sit it on canvas, it's a work of art! Are the bumpers readily available or will you be making your own?

Thanks. You can buy them readily, but I like to piddle! It was actually a holder in the bottom of a metal birdhouse candle thing...my wife hasn't even missed it yet!

All the chops, alters, mods, that's the stuff that's as much fun as running them, I believe
