X2. Post what kit it is and the results when your done. Ive seen a kit at Hobby Town to mold your own plastic parts. It comes with everything, I think. Id like to try one day, just not today. |

Got the kit the day before yesterday. Poured the mold, then went to class, and a little over 8 hours later:  So I pulled it out, came out really clean:  About 20mins later I had my first copy:  Then I proceeded to make another every ten minutes until I had four copies. Here is what a couple look like mounted on my rig:   For those of you who don't know, these gas cans are called Rotopax: http://www.polyperformance.com/shop/...s-p-26199.html And this is the tire mount I copied: http://www.polyperformance.com/shop/...s-p-26215.html Check out my build! Street's t4r build(going IFS) I'll be making several more copies shortly. |
