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.
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!!!
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?
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?
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.
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!
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! ✌️
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!
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
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.
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. 👍
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 🔥👌🏽
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.

Don't stop, don't ever ever stop making videos
One of the most entertaining guys on TH-cam
@@MikeCross616 right!
I gotta say I love the cramming of chips before getting started 😂😂
Didn't realize that styrene was so easy to work with!!!! Great video
This video was for you buddy 🤘🏻
Cool thumbnail. Could even call it scary👍 congrats on the growth man. Long live the 24s👍🤠👍
Thank you!
Eyeball is the best measure tool! 😉👍
Love the videos as always!

Im down for any type of chip!
Gotta bundle up, heat is off to save money so I can buy more RC stuff
@@24Yepp 😂
How tuff is the stirren? Does it take roll over? Very good idea.
Your videos have really helped me think outside the box. They are very helpful and honestly informative with how you present it.

Thank you! They were purchased from Ktech RC
It's called fish mouth or c notched. Use a Dremel small sanding drum with cheap cordless rotor tool
You are hilarious! Thanks for the vid...
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"
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...
Two words- Awe-some!
Love it ! Thanks for the tips ! PEACE
them dill pickels!!!
✌️😁
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
1:52 into the video before a word is spoke!!.....a new record 😂😂
Real entertainment don't need much words.

Glad I could help & thanks for watching, mate
Can we see your dungeon?

Great way to cope pipe for frame work!

I think ill keep pushing it. Maybe eventually we will do 10 minutes of eating and drinking

Been following on instagram a while but this is my new favorite youtube channel.
Do you have the munchies 😅
Looking fwd to trying styrene. I've used plastic model part trees for some stuff in the past, but it is a bit limiting.
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 😎
Great vid!

Ive gotta know where you got the baja bug body & the Datsun pickup. Is it for scx24?
Stealing kids drinks now😂😂
Working with styrene is fun. I have some sliders for my Power Wagon I have to mount still.

You my friend are gold! Need some 24yep sticker!!!
Thank you so much for this! I plant to make a rollbar for my ascent 18.
Menace to the chips😅 love the vids man keep them coming
Love it! Love your bodies (scx ones- in case you have an OF).. and the videos!
Hey there my friend!
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.
This was helpful. Thanks
So , this time you went into the kids stash 😂😂😂
1:50 what's up boys
Nice d ring 🤘🏻
I love using styrene. You can make almost anything with it. Good stuff Brother.
😬 Promo*SM
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.
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. 👍
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
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
Redcat ascent 18 is 100usd till the end of the month
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.
I’m finding myself on your channel daily now. Amazing content brother! Legit good shit man!🤘🏻🤙🏻 I look forward to the next👍🏻
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

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
Another super helpful video, have messed with the basic sheets of styrene but will definitely be picking up some rods to mess with now.
This video was exactly what i needed to know what im doing to my truck next lol. Thank you!!
Electric heat gun bends it without sooting like a candle will. I could eat those chips
Another super helpful video! I really love these kind of videos!
How does it hold up with a rollover?
Ehhhhhhhhh, id be careful
@@24Yepp appreciate you bud. I’m still gonna try this on mine. Are some of your bodies from WT micro?
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.
