Re: 1986 Ford C8000 Cab-Over
very nice. I like to see scratch built instead of 3d printed stuff. Shows talent...not that 3d printing is bad it just takes the wow factor out of builds

Re: 1986 Ford C8000 Cab-Over
Thanks guys! Scratch building shows the true skill of the builder. The advantage I see to 3D printing is that it is great for solid Items like wheels and tool boxes. I have a few items that I designed that I will
have printed for my truck. I have yet to pickup a chassis LOL but that will be coming soon enough. Going to have my own Dayton's printed. Option1-http://shpws.me/Kkl3 Option2-http://shpws.me/Kjdj If you want to look at other models I made you can check out my site here. |
