Default Snipers Fab Shop

I would like to introduce Snipers Fab Shop. I have been on the forum for years, made plenty of parts for other members and non-members from full on scale rtr's to small one-off pieces. Most being one off custom pieces for the guy wanting something special for his rig. I have a full machine shop and plenty of experience to run it.
Here is a shot of my current build. In this shot you can see the turned down big bore shocks with a cap mod done to accept a ball end, delrin spring retainers, carbon upper links, these are the first version, the second version is in testing and much cleaner appearance, and the carbon fiber axle tubes, with delrin mounts.


Here is a scale crawler i built, its was complete RTR when given to the owner, incl. batteries and charger. its been powdercoated at my shop, metallic blue. it has 4 wheel steer and dig, awesome truck.


As i come up with more items i will keep you all posted. If you have any questions,feedback,ideas, please post up or PM me,

Thank you all.
Sniper

Congrats on joining the vender side of things! I can't wait to see what new customer creations you come up with.

I have known Rick for probably close to 5 years, and since day one he has always been a honest stand up guy. Always willing to lend a hand and is my go to guy with machining questions. He is a great asset to the crawler community so keep him in mind next time you need some machine work done or even a full blown scratch built custom like "blue"

Thanks, that was a lot of work but turned out great, the customer displays it on his front counter more than wheeling it, he loves it. Here is a pic of his 1:1 that i was replicating

Congrats man.
You'll have one of my rigs on its way to you this winter, for some welding and grinding, as well as a new layer of powder coat.
Keep up the good work.
And guys, I was in the area and competed with Sniper while he was building the blue tube chassis. He put a ton of time in that chassis and it was truely a quality piece.
DEFINATELY worth the money...

Congrats Rick. Def a great asset to the crawler community. He's definitely an all around good guy and you won't find a more stand up guy. The work you have done in your rig is sick and so is jeepsohigh's.

Here is your hubs:



Custom hubs to fit the Hitman rims, These are pin mount to narrow the width as much as possible.

The fab shop will be closed the rest of July, I am going out of town for my real job, all paid orders have been shipped as of today.

Thanks to all for previous orders, I will be keeping in touch through the website, answering any questions and taking orders, new orders will not be shipped until first of next month though.
