I'm a retired race car fabricator. Mind you, not on NASCAR racers, but many others. I like the idea of the aluminum panels. For non-structural panels in race cars, the layout of rivets is usually more widely spaced than what your pounce wheels do. So I was thinking maybe buy a couple sets and one set grind away every other point from the wheel. A while back I saw a pounce wheel on the craft table at my wife's friend's house that had a steel wheel with plastic handle. Maybe it would be better to do such experiments on the less expensive one. For real rivet-counter accuracy, the layout of rivets (or screws) would actually involve measuring a certain distance in from the end to place the 1st 2 rivets, then measuring the distance between those 2 and dividing to get the proper spacing. That would call for doing 1 rivet at a time, which would get to be a lot more work. For full scale work, such as on aircraft, there's an accordion tool for that. Your blue Daytona is beautiful.
Thank you Richard!! That's a great idea! I have 3 sets of pounce wheels (over gifting LOL)
Many thanks again an Merry Christmas!!!
Hope you will do a series on roll cages. And maybe tie it all together with the frame, roll cage, and floor pans. Great videos. Gonna help alot!!!
Thank you Ben!! I do plan on a look at roll cages down the road! Thanks again for watching!
I have to get that contour gauge... that thing seems to make life very easy... i will be getting the other stuff in due time... thanks for all the ideas Mark... makes a world of difference in the build.
Yes sir Terry!! I find a use for my contour gauge on almost every project! It's a great tool for scratch building too! Thanks for the kind words and for watching!!
I tried this last night just playing around. It was so easy to do and will open up a lot of ideas. Like a rusted floor and trunk pan in a barn find. Thank you for these tips.
Absolutely Jim!! Tons of possibilities! You did an OUTSTANDING job on that floor pan yesterday!!
So much useful information for scratch building. I am glad I found ur channel and so grateful to you for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks Zachary!! I'm glad you find it helpful!!
Great tip! I never thought of an aluminum pan!
Thanks.
Thanks!! Give it a shot! Fun stuff!
Now, this is an extremely interesting and educational video. Nice job, Mark!
Thanks Matt!! I love doin' this stuff!
Love your channel sir! Thank you for so many scratch building ideas to explore!
Thank you Kurtis!!
That's very cool!! Never seen that done before.
Thank you Matt!! Give it a shot, fun and easy! Thanks for watching!!
I appreciate all the knowledge you share with us all. And great work ,with all. I do most of nascar classics.
Thank you William!! Love to share!
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Man you build a helluva model. I learned more in this video than I have all night scouring YT looking for tricks for my next Pro Touring mustang Shelby I’m building. Just subbed!
BIG thanks BigShot!! (love the name) Have fun with the Stang!!
@@MarkBatsonHobbydude007 it was to po people who thought they were but triggered they weren’t. Lol
LOL! Love it!
Thank you for the shout out Mark, I appriciate it buddy. And nice video, I will certainly try that out myself, soon 😃
THANK YOU Kim!! When I get around to doing a Shop Card, YOURS will be the first to go out my friend! Thanks for watching!!
@@MarkBatsonHobbydude007 Thank you, I will look foreward to that buddy 😀
Absolutely "floored" with the amount of information you have provided! Thanks for taking the time. So happy our paths crossed at the perfect time.
Many thanks Mike!! Glad it's helpful!
Mark, thanks so much for sharing the nifty tools,their names & what they do. I love scratch building & seen other people's deals & wondered how they did it. Now i know there's a tool for that. Speaking of floor pans, i once owned an ex-Bobby Allison Coke Chevy Grand National car & he had built that car using Ford Galaxie floor pans !
Thanks Shane!! I love my tools! LOL!
That is so cool about the Allison car! I didn't know that! Thanks!
Yes rule books will help y'all big time. Because if it can be done or is done to a real racecar it is done to a model as well. For all your your circle track racing stuff rule books for divisions like modifieds and outlaw latemodels and pro trucks ECT will give a a diagram on the body panel measurements and chassis measurements ect
Mark I really appreciate your video how to's because of you my models have become so much better and the ideas flowing out of your mind are bar none THANK YOU MR. BATSON!!!
Thanks for the kind words and all of your support Bryan!!
Great vid Mark!
Thank you Tim!!
Never even thought of using these tools, thanks so much
Thanks for watching brother!! Glad it’s helpful!
Great video Mark. Great tip on using aluminum items that we would have around the house.
Thanks for watching Chris! Glad it's helpful!
Aluminum tape can be used like this also. Cut, peel, and stick.
Little tricky to use in some situations though. But looks good.
I'm glad you said, pie pan, for your main metal, Mark. 👍I've found it excellent for this sort of thing in various scales and am about to make so parts for an El Camino I'm hotting up 👍🤩. Thanks for showing and best wishes from jolly old England 👍😎Pete 🤓
Thank you my friend!! Hope it helps!
Very cool tutorial 🤙🏼
Thank you sir!! Hope it was helpful!!
Great video! Lots of awesome information! Keep it coming!
That is very cool Mark. Thanks Ron
Thank you Ron!!
Thanks again for another great video tutorial! I do cars and planes and a lot of what you're showing can be used on any type of modeling. Thanks!!!
Yes sir! I also do airliners. Same aluminum makes great landing gear/ bay doors! Thanks for watching!!
WOW Mark , fantastic tips. Thank you.
Thank you David!!
Mark, thank you so much for a great tutorial! I'm just about to make a sheet metal cover for the back seat area of the USACC build, and this will help me take it to a whole new level. Thank you!

Glad you like it Gary!! Thank you sir!!
ABSOLUTELY !!! You're Very Welcome Sir.
This was great...I have subbed your channel..thank you for sharing
Many thanks brother!!
I love your techniques for dioramas and metal racks and different stages of construction of a cup car you do very neat and helpful. When I started getting it in my mind that same thing I do to real racecars can be done to model cars and sur enough it works and I been having a lot better time scratch building and making my own custom oval track cars. I love 5 minute epoxy I use it every where I can and I build huge RC airplanes from balsa and hobby grade ply wood off plans so I have plenty your attention to detail is amazing man. And also have you found a good way for doing bead rolls in flat styrene sheet for decking in latemodels like asphalt and even dirt late models and modifieds I have not found a good way to get a clean bead roll look. And also you everyone almost every racecar has crush panels we just use sheet of aluminum bend it and fill it in for local track stuff like latemodels now nascar is a little different they have rule on how thick and how much of a over lap it has to be. I need that contour gauge that's nice. Your builds you show in pics is crazzy man I bet it takes you a good year on one model if you really detail it out 100 percent for show
Mark, Dspaie makes some really nice chisels. They come in sets of different widths and they offer sets with different shapes as well. Very sharp and easy removal of details you don’t want on styrene. Just a tool FYI buddy.
Oooooo!!! These sound great! (I LOVE TOOLS! lol!) I will check them out today! BIG thanks brother! This is what its all about! Helping and sharing with each other!!
Sorry Mark, it’s GodHand not Dspaie that has the chisels.
@@Aces_Eights_Scale_Vision Awesome! Thanks again brother!
Just to let you know I was watching a show on making Coke cans and fill them filling them up they actually have a thin coat of plastic on the inside not sure how to get it off but it would probably make it thinner hope you don't mind just a suggestion
Mmmmm! Didn't know that! I'll check it out. Thanks for the info and for watching Mitch!!
I use mostly Printed plate whitch I use to get from the newpaper place can`t get it anymore because they recycle it now
Sounds perfect John Pol! To bad you can't it anymore! Thanks again for watching!!
I still get it from our local paper. They sell it.
👍👍👍👏👏👏🤤🤤🤤
