Re: Tri-axle half pipe tipper trailer
That's awesome. I always thought Reg should start building tubs for the end dump trailers too. Looks like he made one!
So I have to ask, where did you get the Hayes truck in the background? ...

Re: 1:87 rc
That's insane. I have my hands full building what I think are smaller models, and these guys take it to a whole different level. Very cool and impressive.

Re: Motor problem, Maybe?
Grease will naturally dirty up with time. I wouldn't worry about the front axle, unless it's not running smoothly, or quietly.

Re: New Project!
Awesome. I get distracted a lot too, Stu, but your 3 point hitch looks right at home on the back of the tractor. RC4WD Gelande? Those scale 4x4 trucks are a lot of fun!

Re: Mack R Model

Re: What grease do you use?
White lithium grease works for everything and it's safe for plastics too. For metal gear I've switched to Mobil 1 synthetic grease. Something like you could use to pack bearings. It's just a...

Looks very scale. Tamiya did a nice job molding the cabs. They do look very real in the right setting, and I too like the addition of the air deflector on the trailer. Seems fitting to match a...
