RC Bashers

Ok we had one a while ago and here we go again. I have a few piled up on me.lol Here is a pic.l8r,w.

What you got?

no pic right now.... but broken servo on the jk scaler, i got the transmission for the rock honcho today in the mail, mater is in bills "office" but the chassis is on my bench, have a slash chassis on my friends bench for me to pickup for a trophy truck build, and another friend has a losi micro for me! not counting my 3 year build on a full size build! and sadly im sure i didnt list everything!

Nothing on mine in the garage its been getting a fresh coat of paint well whenever I happen to go out there lol. Most all my work unless it require drilling or dremel work is right here next to me at the pc desk and in front of the tube!

i've got the SC truck now. and hopefully, if the PostMan is nice today, i will have some axle work to do as well for my scaler/crawler. i will get pics if he comes with anything useful

Got an SCX-10 torn apart, along with a pile of Baja 5T parts from the 5T that's on a work stand opposite the bench. It's a mess right now!

What- nobody else has a camera?!? LOL

My work space is pretty darn small, as I'm a 1/25 scale model builder most of the time. You just don't need all that much room for 'em. Still gotta figure out how to build the CC01 on it, though....

There's my '58 Impala custom project up top (gold car), a '57 Chevy sedan that's gonna be a mild custom, & I'm swapping in a 6 cylinder along the way (white car w/ filler on it), & then there's the Micro T in the mix as well.

man your jeep is gonna hog all the space.

this is where the magic happens. really though. i build everything right here. with a hack saw. (and oreos)

and always gotta have the site up on the computer.

Nice finally other people with projects and cameras. Oh and quick heads to hide that chopping block a little better you know Jamus doesn't live that far away. Oh and pass me an Oreo man.Please.

oreos are GONE! i learned the fork trick while dunking. you poke the fork in the icing, and never get your fingers all messy!!! i can start a how to thread if anyone cares!

How about a redue of the Slash 2WD.Got some new RPM body mounts and finally dyed the chassis as well and put it back together. And I need some shoes to toss on it. I got some old SC racers in a box. Or maybe some 1/8th 's in a box under the table. Who knows.l8r,w.

Ha! this is how I usually do it also... just a towel over the coffee table and plant myself in front of the tube. one of these days I will get a proper work bench though.

well the ole box has been sitting for sometime now and when i changed the stock friction shocks over to oil filled the front springs are actually to stiff and theres just not enough weight up front to hold the front end down correctly so im gonna do a couple of things to this baby to fix the problem.

Got the slash done so time to clean and prep the race rigs for the final spring series SuperCup race on the 30th. So here is one of the SC-10's in for a freshining up.l8r,w.

MGT on the desk. Working on the suspension and retuning the engine for some bashing.



WCM 1/4 scale Sprint Car on the big bench torn down for cleaning. Also painting the body panels and wings. Will post all the pics in the project post once its finished. If it ever stays warm and dry enough to finish painting.

OK been slackin a bit on this thread. So I have a few pics stored up to add here. So after my last race I saw some oil on my table under one of my race rigs. Turns out the rear diff in my Slash 4x4 is leaking yet agian. So time for a clean and relube and reseal of the diff. I got it done last weekend and not a drop since then.Just need to test run it this weekend to make for sure all is good.





And next up is the addition of a Tractor Supply gift card toolbox I got from my coworker and friend Charlie. I have been trying to get one for while now but they never have any when I swing by there to see. So he goes all the time to get dogfood for his 3 shepards and asked the manager about them.He said they only get them in around christmas for the giftcards but has one sitting on his desk in his office just waisting away doing nothing. So when Charlie told what it was for he said he would sell it to him for my build idea. I will post up the finished product in my Honcho thread.

look good man. did you see they were selling them on rcc too?

leaking oil is never good either. i hope mine don't all start leaking.

i don't have anything on my bench. getting my harley running for the end of the month when i get my license back is top priority. so parts and things for the bike are taking over my actual workbench. i'm also in the process of getting my spare room organized and set up as an RC+ room (storage and air-conditioned workroom). i got a couple heavy duty Gorilla Racks set up in there yesterday and have one for the garage. now i just need an old desk or workbench, maybe a chair depending if one of my computer chairs will work.

still have yet to get a new/better motor and esc for my Honcho (waiting to sell AX10) and there's something with my Slash or DX3.0 - seems to have more power in reverse. i've checked all the wires (vxl is color-coded) and messed with the radio a bit, think i got it somewhat evened out but still seems a bit backwards. everything but the AX10 is running, could use new lipos/charger (ICE smells like burning)... new/better motors would benefit a few vehicles but not totally necessary.



W, i think our Honchos are the same color....

yours


mine

Kool Spliff looks almost identical. And my paint is on the outside.lol


My SC-10FT up for some maintenance and found this. Gone to pieces.lol

man. is that a thrust bearing? or a regular one from the hub?

how long til you get a sc10 4x4

swapping chassis and mounting the xj body then gonna build links

ordered a new set of shocks to repair the doggie damage!

Not mine but its really old and I have always kept it so when the ones that think buying everything metal is the greatest thing ever lol. It has its place in some spots but not a-arms!

It's just a custom caster adjustment. Yeah, a high quality plastic works better for me. Does RPM make arms to fit the LST?

plastic is always better for the arms. metal on the knuckle is good though. i'd rather have a plastic arm break than a plastic diff housing any day.

That is a rear hub bearing.lol Well was one

Don't know if I will get one anytime soon. I think I will get a RC10T4.1 and stick to 3 2wd classes and drop 4wd Pro4 Mod since all the pros are invading it now.

hell, my workbench is a tv tray in my bedroom. with our spring cleaning finally in gear, i cant setup my rc workspace neither in the garage (too cold at night anyways) nor in the living room. only drawback to working in the bedroom is that my room is very tiny and already a dump so god forbid i have to work on my emaxx anytime soon.
