I hope it makes sense.🤞🤔. I'm pleased with result👍😉. I've just remembered they came from the 55 Chevy Cameo. I'm putting it all under a 65 Chevelle stn wagon 🤞😃
Very good tip on bending that styrene, i don't know how i didn't get the notification on this video, just found it now, but I'll have to try making some of that coiled styrene.
Pete, nice! Great video! I've done wheel widening before to. I've also widened tires by cutting two tires and gluing both tires together to - but it was semi truck tires. Talk about heating and bending and stretching sprue is something I've done allot to. I've made wires to radio antennas to.
@@petesmodelcarcustoms584 i use to build my own roll cages for racecars using sprue,,, cut them and round them, bend them using a small candle or cigarette lighter
Well, a very good scratch build, bring back some memories of a certain car I did. Yes I have used the hot water treatment. Never tried it with coffee, styreen the other sweetener 😊 I alway wanted a little hole cutter. I will have to look for it. There is no getting used to metric, in the US. I get upset when I go to the auto parts store and say I need this . What size motor 366cubic inch. They stare at me, ok 6 liter. What is the trucks tonnage? I say 3/4 ton. another icy stair K2500. Is it four wheel drive , I said, "K, that means four wheel drive in Chevy language." Lol it's here to some extent. I only say the Mets measurements for the people living out of the US.😊
I knew you'd have used hot water and been in it😅👍. The hole cutter is a cheap but very useful tool,they come with spare blades. The Olfa cutter is better made. Our weather temps are metric too,centigrade😀not Fahrenheit
Yes, I know that ,lol. you also talk funny😅 Wa a, what is that ? We don't have it here. but coffee we have and water ,but no wa a here😂 Sorry, it's fun. I like the differences in the same language. We say stuff weird here, too. Like Texas oil is not oil, it's O. Some say ant, but others say ont( spelled wrong) My family says something weird for here, Fokes for mom and dad. But the German is showing. folks is volks, it means people.😊 I don't hear that anymore here.😮
I'm originally from South London so had a sort of Cockney accent that's been corrupted by a New Zealand girlfriend and my living in various parts of this country. Over here I think the accents change at about every 50 miles🤣
@@petesmodelcarcustoms584 Yes, that is an issue. I need to make headlight lenses for a Model T though, and they would be good for that. - Dad did teach me how to find the center of a circle using a compass, but I never did get that right. Maybe now that I'm 50, I can figure it out better! LOL!
@@MonsterHobbiesModelCarGarage set you dividers to the radius size. Put one point on the circumference. Scribe an arc in the area you think the centre is. Now move divider point 120 degrees to a new point on the circumference. Scribe a line in the area you think the centre is. There should now be a small x,giving the centre point.i hope this explains it and I can get out of bed and make some coffee. Geometry at 6.30 am 😅👍
