Re: King hauler Dump Truck

Re: Modular railroad in HO
Always something cool about street running! Maybe it's the fact that the locomotives are so massive, compared to the cars, or just the fact that the rail is all laid in asphalt and concrete. Either...

Re: Articulating KW T800 Dump

Re: Custom Peterbuilt Dumper
Your rolling chassis looks great. Those rims and tires are awesome, but I also like those axles. The dump box is really nice. Reg is getting better and better with each one he builds. It will be a...

Re: Hanomag German tractor 1936

Re: Motors, gears and stuff?
The most common donors for drivetrain components are probably the little cordless screw drivers, or drills. Even the drive motors for power windows on vehicles can be good.

Re: Breaking Bad, Fleetwood Bounder

Re: Smiley's Garage/Shade tree mechanic
I really like the design of this trailer, but I wish the rear suspension and airbags looked a little better. Can't complain to much though. All that aluminum is awesome!
