- 3D printed 1/14 scale concrete block forms. Recorded some of the footage of the build and the display. I increased the density on the molds so that constant screwing and unscrewing wouldn't wear them out as quick.

Cool cement blocks,awesome rig and trailer
Thank you sir! 👍
Wow all beautiful good job ❤️❤️👍👍👍👍😍😍😍
Thanks friend 👍
Nice blocks for heavy construction.
Ya, they'd look good getting craned off the trailer. 👍
very good,, looks like the original👍
Thank you very much!
I wanna see your awesome rig driving in the snowy weather
It was -10 here, I could barely hold the camera for more than a minute lol
@@westernsharpie lol too funny looks so cool I keep rewatching
@@danishadamario9512 Cool@ good to hear, what like the whole video? or certain parts of it? 😀
@@westernsharpie the whole video learning a lot and for fun I love to fast forward to see that nice globe liner in the snow with the realistic straps, and hoses and landing gear just a really nice set up to look at and see in action
I watch your other videos as well especially the ones with your rig don’t get me wrong I love all your content I learned a lot from you rock on
Looks good Great Job 👏
Thanks Goran, hope it helps when you go to make yours
I love those tie downs.
ohh me too!! Brings the flatbed to life. How can you have a flatbed trailer without load straps right. Thanks for watching 👍
@@westernsharpie indeed where did you get them?
@@NerdHobbiesDiecast I make and sell them on my FB page. Link is in the description
These look awesome! So realistic! Love the detail in the “concrete”!
Thanks Freddy
have to see that thing run thru the snow this winter :)
haha it has 0 traction really
Great job

Thanks Carlos!
Tremendo trabajo un maestro
Gracias!!
nice molds these are the ones on thinyverse correct? I have seen them. how did your molds hold up under the heat of curing from concrete? I seen that they aren't a solid infill which I know would of taken a lot of filament to do. with my experience in 3d mold making for concrete forms I use quick dry floor patch. its not as dense as concrete its manageable and sandable sets up in half hr. The heat will play a big part in warping the mold possibly after constant repeated castings in short time. I also found with different release agents a lightweight cooking spray works best. sticks to the plastic yet also no residue left after cast is released from mold.
Ya thingiverse. Molds holding up perfect. I've been making blocks everyday for the last two weeks. I've made about 30 blocks so far. No warping at all. Could be the design, i don't know. Ya I use regular cement and sift out the rocks. Probably not as strong as that floor patch stuff, more on the sandy side, but still pretty strong, able to sand them a bit and best of all its $4 a bag.
This is AWESOME.
Thanks friend! ya lots of fun having it out and taking the pictures 👍
Try some spray Pam as a mold release.
I was using the spray olive oil, same kinda deal eh?
That's an excellent idea and very good job, the rendering is very good, but it must be heavy, right? I wonder if it would be possible for it to be hollow inside 🤔 Just an idea to avoid too much weight on the truck, in case he has a heart attack 😁
Thanks Pascal, yes that would be an idea, but it is nice that they are heavy because it makes it more realistic. Maybe to prevent the truck from a heart attack I can strengthen his little heart by giving him a better motor, more torque with some gear reduction and change some plastic pieces to metal. Thanks for the comment and watching as always. joyeuses fêtes!! 🎄
@@westernsharpie Yes, it would also be a solution to upgrade this truck to prevent it from straining too much because of the weight. Thank you, have a happy holiday to you too 😉👍
@@satorrotas 👍
Where would you or are you able to order the yellow straps
In the description my friend 👍
Good bro go tiraks
thanks friend
Add some diff oil in there bro! Lol
🤔Might be a good idea to put a little in the transmitter too.
WAY TOO COOL!!!! 😁😎😎
I'm saying this too often, but I've GOT to get some cash together. I'm going to be building a BEAST of a stretched Globe Liner, built for Heavy Hauling!!
..... And believe me, with three Electrical Engineers in my Family - I KNOW that 80 turn Motors do NOT have more Torque than lower turn Motors!!!! 😉😁
They just have a lower top speed.
My Grand Hauler has a 35T Motor and a 4-1 Gear Reduction Unit.
It's Towed 210lbs!!
{I try to get as many people as possible to realize that. The high turn=torque theory was MADE UP by competition Crawlers over 20 years ago. It's just been accepted, even by some Manufacturers!
EXCEPT Holmes Hobbies}
Thanks Carmine. Ya I remember you saying the high turn less torque theory. Electrical seems to be most peoples weak spot so naturally they'll just follow the masses and the masses are saying high turn equals more torque. Ya Holmes is absolute wizard when it comes to understanding motors. It may as well be in Chinese for me, but I sure do appreciate it. I'll stick with making toys lol.

John Holmes verified what my Dad, Uncle and Cousin told me...
The motto at Holmes is "Gear Down and Volt Up!" Makes sense to SOME of us.
You just keep making Toys lol. You're GREAT at it!
@@CarminesRCTipsandTricks Man it would be an honour to drop my truck off over at Carmines auto repair shop and give it the royal treatment. Completely overhaul it, bells and whistles. I want it to pull like a champ. Too bad you're so dam far
@@westernsharpie
Yeah.... the Shipping would be RIDICULOUS! I would though, free of course. 👊
@@CarminesRCTipsandTricks Now you're speaking my language Carmine lol. I'm sure I could slip a few toys in your back pocket
Hi, i’m interested in a pair of these. Is there any way to get in touch with you other than facebook?
You can leave me your email if you like I reach out to you.
@@westernsharpie I tried 8 times. but youtube keeps editing out my details. I'll try in a more cryptic way.

@@MB-qj8yo lol ohhh boy im not good with riddles, i'll give it a shot
Great idea. Good to see that 3D printing is starting to be creativity used in the hobby. Just one comment, why use all grout for the block; agreed very heavy. Instead they could have a [styro] foam interior with a grout surround for exterior; similar to architectural building detail. Would lessen the weight quite a bit, but still give the look. Just my 2¢.
Thats a great idea. I used the grout only because i had it laying around and all i had at the time. I wanted to see if it would work. After it didn't, I used actual cement. The weight isn't really an issue unless you're going on long drives and up hills which in which I don't really plan on doing with this stock truck. Pouring the cement is pretty simple but it be nice to see the foam inserts. Thanks for the comment 👍
