[ROLANDROCKSHOP]

heres a lil cb i whipped up out of styrene,servo wire.
installed it in my AXIAL TR.



used several small styrene pieces glued on top of
each other for the hand unit.

took it to the belt sander and shaped it.

drilled a small hole in the bottom of the hand unit
for the servo wire.

glue together.

the radio i cut small squares for top and bottom pieces.
3/4 x 3/4

cut small strips for the sides @3-4mm tall.
cut to length and width of box.

glue together to form a box.

i took the radio part and sanded the edges.

drilled small hole for servo wire in back corner
for "cb cord".

glue. let dry.

painted it flat black.

detailed it with fine tip brushes and paints.

find a place to mount it!

i used a small screw and oring to mount.
via tiny hole in top of radio.

thanks for looking.

It's wire.....if you coil it up, it will usually hold it's shape.
