|  SCX 10 Buggy Build. *Pic intensive*
A friend of mine MATT ELLERBEE got me into this hobbie. He has a scx-10 with a yota hard body cab and a homemade flatbed. So he found me a scx-10 roller from thus sight and we decided to try and build our first buggy/truggy. Please keep in mind thus was the first time either of us have brazed. I know its ugly brazing. Day one Sliders and stared cab.      Day 2 Worked on rear and front. Made a front hoop to go around a grill from one of my son's old cheap rc hummer. Experimented with beer cans for a skin. Any advice on how to wrap it or connect it?      Last edited by KennethXJ; 09-30-2012 at 08:34 PM. |

Not to bad for two people not having a clue to what they're doing!

Looking good, nice first attempt, For those skins, try wraping the can around the bar then ziptie it on with the smallest ones you can find. |

Day 4. Made body panels out of sheet metal. Brazed some mounts to the cage so I could bolt on the panels .   Last edited by THX_138; 10-05-2012 at 11:53 PM. | |
