Funny enough, someone puts the same 15 second flashy intro on their vid and I'm clicking forward every time. This guy.....nope. I'm watching. Go figure...
Thank you as an Australian I have been confused by many Americans talking of styrene. It is now clear to me that the product is called Polystyrene on the packaging , something sold in my local hobby store. Thanks again.
Never gets old to be kept waiting two minutes for you to fulfill your basic needs in a ritualistic fashion. The 'thick sheeting' @ 12:30 was totally worth it though.
@@24Yepp Hehe, it does open a lot of options for sponsors though and you could always smoothly transition into the ASMR / food domain with your channel. Smart thinking.
Yep, another excellent vid bro!!! Always full of helpful tips, without extra jargon, a little smooth comedy and quality info!!! I don't think I need my other subs, LOL, Keep it up man Rock on!!!
Once again super helpful and informative! Every time my phones makes a sound I am hoping it’s a notification that there is a a new 24 yep video! Awesome work man!
Dude, honestly, I just happened to come upon your video and I build (Weld, braze,solder,metal fabrication) my own chassis’s and have also been doing some plastic fabrication to but I’ve been wondering about “Styrene” (or Polystyrene to be correct) but never actually found out what exactly is it or how to work with it till now? So I just wanted to say thank you for making this video and keeping it as basic as possible because from here anyone that is interested can give it a try and see what they can come up with? Maybe it’s the perfect material for certain applications? I now see myself using this material and method for creating endless possibilities for my RCs. Thank you brother.👍💯🙂👌
The apple juice had me cracking up! 😂 Really enjoying these diy videos. I've never worked with styrene but might consider it now. Thanks for more tips! ✌️
Nice! I love it. I have started building with styrene also. Tool and bit holders, car stands and such with the thick stuff. Great vid for more ideas. This is why I have stayed in this hobby for 35 yrs. People like yourself.
Great vid! FYI: You can often get 2x3 or 2x4 sheets of Styrene from plastics shops in .02, .04, and .06 for way cheaper than the Evergreen. Sometimes you can get luck at hobby shops and get old model sprues for cheap or free. They're Styrene as well (usually) And if anyone is into really going DIY, look up vid's from folks that do "Trash Bashing". It's making models, etc out of garbage plastic. Tons of good info on cutting, shaping, flame tempering, and gluing.
Man, not only are you entertaining but also extremely informative!! I'm gonna use this for my dual cb antennas on my K10!! Thanks, brother! Also, this cover photo looks sinister as hell!! I dig it!
Can’t lie guilty of raiding that drink from the kids sometimes lol such an awesome video def look forward to my work breaks when I see ur channel pop up legend sir and all your rigs look 🔥👌🏽
Thanks for this amazing video man I steal straws from fast food places to make things like this. To make cheap roll cages and like bumpers I use straws
Dude, awesome tips and tricks with all that poly styrene! That stuff is awesome as well as your creations. Your beetle is just plain nasty! ❤ it. Don’t you get a little bit warm with all those layers on? Noticed you like Lays at snack time, What do you think of lays kettle?
1:51 god damn it. i though we were gonna make it all way to a full 2 min without him saying a single word. i was so glued to the screen waiting to see if he was ever gonna talk. now that he did i dont feel a need to watch.
Your videos have really helped me think outside the box. They are very helpful and honestly informative with how you present it. I noticed the purple axles and links on the Barbie truck. Did you do that or have it done? If so, what was your process? Thanks man.
Hey so I love the video, made my bumper with your techniques and went to glue it and the e6000 ate the styrene... are you having better luck because your pieces were painted first or do you see this sometimes?
Maybe try solid rod styrene if it's going out running. I bet you could stick some copper house wire in the tube, before bending to give it a bit more strength.
@@Lets_RCHappy to help if I can. And if you want a solid square type shape, you can laminate strips of thin sheet and sand it to size. And for a multi bend shape, like maybe a old school style bumper, cut the thin sheet strips a bit oversize. Cut a block of wood to the curve you want. Remove the thickness of the glued up strips from one side of cut block. Clamp all your strips in between these blocks with the strip edges out enough to apply cement to. (wax the block faces so glue doesn't stick). Then hand sand to final shape. Basically the same method used for wood laminate bow making and bent plywood furniture. Just really small scale! LOL! The two block parts just need to match up so the clamping is even. Could try facing the block surfaces with some thin foam rubber to help make up for gaps in the block surfaces.
The glue chemically melts the plastic. Almost making the two parts like one. Way cleaner looking and simple. And you can use MEK and a little syringe. Dirt cheap and dries super fast. 👍
Don't stop, don't ever ever stop making videos
One of the most entertaining guys on TH-cam

I used styrene to lengthen a bed on a1965 Chevy bed so it would fit perfectly on a Scx24,most 1/24 scale models are just too small.Cool Channel 😎
Looking fwd to trying styrene. I've used plastic model part trees for some stuff in the past, but it is a bit limiting.
Dude u one of the dopest custom builders on the innawebs
Thank you so much for this! I plant to make a rollbar for my ascent 18.
$HyTe!! I’m sitting at my rc table trying to figure out what to do with this Atlas 6x6 can and just watched this video! Bam!
Thanks
Eyeball is the best measure tool! 😉👍
I don’t know why I love these videos so much I don’t think anyone else does either and THAT is what makes it brilliant.
😂
I love using styrene. You can make almost anything with it. Good stuff Brother.
Another super helpful video, have messed with the basic sheets of styrene but will definitely be picking up some rods to mess with now.
I gotta say I love the cramming of chips before getting started 😂😂
Best intros on youtube.
Great way to cope pipe for frame work!
Working with styrene is fun. I have some sliders for my Power Wagon I have to mount still.
This video was exactly what i needed to know what im doing to my truck next lol. Thank you!!
Awesome video! Your a good rc creator I look forward to many more of your videos, you have a nice entertaining spark, while also sparing your opinion
Love it! Love your bodies (scx ones- in case you have an OF).. and the videos!
Another super helpful video! I really love these kind of videos!

every single time he uploads its another got damn banger son
I’m finding myself on your channel daily now. Amazing content brother! Legit good shit man!🤘🏻🤙🏻 I look forward to the next👍🏻
Where can I pick up creativity? Is it also at Hobby Lobby? Maybe Lowes? Michaels?
How tuff is the stirren? Does it take roll over? Very good idea.
Menace to the chips😅 love the vids man keep them coming

You my friend are gold! Need some 24yep sticker!!!
Ive gotta know where you got the baja bug body & the Datsun pickup. Is it for scx24?
Thank you for Sharing.Does it have strength? Will it break if the car rolls?
You could add more pieces to make it stronger. The bumpers are pretty strong.
@@24Yepp Thanks👍
You can also get solid rods too.
Have you tried soda straws for inside roll cage light weight and come in a verify of sizes ,I use them on my 1/10 scale
Great info got a play mobile bug I’m going to attempt to customize. Getting items together. Where do you get your magnets? Thanks in advance.
Magnets are from amazon "DIYMAG small round 12x2"
It's called fish mouth or c notched. Use a Dremel small sanding drum with cheap cordless rotor tool
Thank you sir!
Question if you see this ? Is this stuff strong enough to build a body out of it ? Replace my Wrangler body.
Hey so I love the video, made my bumper with your techniques and went to glue it and the e6000 ate the styrene... are you having better luck because your pieces were painted first or do you see this sometimes?
I'm not quite sure what went wrong, I've used e6000 a ton of times with styrene (painted and unpainted) with no issues...
Love it ! Thanks for the tips ! PEACE
What is the name of the first tool you picked up to show what you can cut it with? It looks like something i could use
😂
Finger nail clippers
Hey there my friend!
You look like a styrene wizard in the thumbnail. 😅
Need all new electronics for my TRX4m after it started smoking… it’s toast any idea what I should get?
Injora has a low gear set for about 90 all together or more

How does it hold up with a rollover?
Ehhhhhhhhh, id be careful

I have not reached your "What's up boys!", but laughing loudly. Has anybody sponsoring you yet?
Hahaha, no... Not sure I'm what sponsors are looking for
Noice!
Nice d ring 🤘🏻

Electric heat gun bends it without sooting like a candle will. I could eat those chips
Bro look like from gravity falls😂
them dill pickels!!!
Hey 👋
Styrene is plastic and you could also use a cheap soldering gun to melt and weld parts together rather than glue.
The glue chemically melts the plastic. Almost making the two parts like one. Way cleaner looking and simple. And you can use MEK and a little syringe. Dirt cheap and dries super fast. 👍
Stealing kids drinks now😂😂
Can’t you also use some thick soldering wire
Edit: just realized that metal wire would mess up the centre of gravity and would probably be expensive
I'm sure you could, these a lot of different materials you can use. I've seen brake line used for 1/10 crawlers.
Would you be interested in a scx24 moon buggy chassi I designed, I would ship u one for free u js gotta pay shipping
It looks sweet man, not sure I would ever get around to using it. I have like 30+ chassis sitting here waiting to be built. Too many projects
@@24Yepp do u got an email or anything I can contact you at, I make a lot of stuff for the 24’s, and I do custom 3d design and stuff
