Now the little fiddly bits start going on. Since the 1:1 MAN's panels aren't really flat, I have to make some skins from 3mm foam that cover the 5mm foam, with cutouts to give the panels some depth:


Behind the cab, in the spare-tire area. You probably won't see this with the tire installed, but you'll know it's there.


This one you won't have any trouble seeing

I've got to cover the whole cab like this. Good thing I've got a pack of fresh X-Acto blades

$250 per axle x4 $1000 for the axels only. Wonder what the whole build cost?

The crane is going to be a reality, and it will lift a 2.2 into the bed to haul it. crawler hauler with a twist

This is one of maybe two or three rigs that give me the evil grin every time I read the thread. Cannot wait to see how it ends.
