RCP57-I was on the opposite end of the spectrum. We built RACE BOATS!!! My brother and I started out building one-off custom race boats from wood and then switched to fibreglass to increase production. After doing that for years I started building R/C model race boats from wood and fibreglass which I built and raced for 22 years until I had to quit because of my eyes,but they are still being built today. If you look in the non-RC section on page-2-under "something completely different by modelman" there are some pictures of a wood boat I built for one of my customers. Don't want to get your thread off topic so I will shut up.

I got a very special package in the mail today! Thanks so much Mario! I think they look perfect even if I do say so myself!

I spent a lot of time fiddling with small things today. I was inspired by my newly acquired clearance lights to build the air horn today. I also decided to make some pins for various places on the truck(even the Euc got one lol). While doing this the light bulb came on that I had a piece of hose(cough, hoarder) that I could make hump hoses out of for the air cleaners. A quick search for the right box of junk led me to the hose and a couple of quick cuts with my scissors and.....







They're a little bigger diameter than they should be but I think they look better than not having them at all. I just need to make up some little wire clamps once everything is painted.






Thanks for looking
