Im going to get a very cool scale truck and was wondering how to make dashboards and gauges and seats and all that stuff. Im looking for people that know how to do it homemade. Not bought from any store.

Styrene! It's all styrene. You can make anything. Get some CA or Tenax, an X-acto with a bunch of bladdes, maybe a heat gun, sand paper and Squadron putty. Go check out all the scale builds, lots of good styrene ideas... Ryan |

Hi there, Go get some aluminum flashing from lowes or home depot. Then go get some thin foam. I know they have some sets at hobby lobby with multiple colors. Fold and cut till you have a dash or your seat. If youre working on the seat you can cover it with the foam using thin double sided tape or adhesive. some pics of a few I've done: dash  seats  styrene dash and alum buckets  Last edited by 2brokefor1:1; 08-02-2010 at 04:34 PM. |

WHOA!  That is a great idea! How did you make those gauges? And where did you get the sticker of the gps? Thank you for posting.-Dayton |
