Hi Rex great job on the car x-mas gift. What about making the wheels and use some o-rings for the tyres.

I think some o ring will work great for the tires just need to make a die to stamp out the wheels and looking ant the ones that i use it is a fairly easy part to fab.
Roughed out a lower section this morning. The hammer form made from mdf only plan on using this one a few times so the mdf should hold up and after 3 part it still is in good shape. Anealed the blank and bolted it in the hammer form. since there is as a good amount of stretching in the center i started out by working the sides down the stretched out the middle. Working on blocking out the shape trying to keep it all symetrical. Since I have a planishing hammer with a die that closely matches the shape i need i took a short cut on the blocking and used it to finish smoothing the part A little hand work with some dollies. Some more hand work to do before i am ready to pick and file this one but getting close. then it will be time fore a top half and some wheels. |
