@@Paulthediecastguy thanks. Yeah. There's ways and then there's ways. As long as you allow for internal parts such as the prongs of the interior that ride against the axles. And the spot in the frame that crimps over the axles. In this case there was no prongs or crimping mounts. Anyway thanks for watching and commenting. 👍🏾😎👌🏾
@@diecastloonie6055 yes. But I didn't explain that. If your putting the wheels and axles in a car or truck. You must keep in mind that the interior sets against the axles so you have to make the bend to where the interior is still against the axles without any interference or else the body of the castings won't fit together right. Also the base has the hump where the axles are mounted.that you have to be sure it doesn't interfere with the parts fitting together right. I'm sure you will figure it all out just as I did many moons ago. Thanks for watching. 👍🏾😎👌🏾
@@briansdiecastthailandstoth6747 thanks Big B. I've learned a lot since I started working on Diecast. Different ways to do things and better ways. And creative ways. Thanks for watching 👍🏾😎
I like it, Mike! Exxon & O'Reilly gonna be asking for royalties for you using their name, 😂! Glad you got some use out of those bank trucks, what had those silver disk wheels you put on them??? Don't take apart that Matchbox RV before you check out what ebay is asking for them! Never seen o anywhere even in antique malls!
@@charlesdiecastgarage the disk wheels came off of a matchbox casting of a maintenance vehicle. An unlicensed matchbox creation. It kinda looked like a golf cart with a pickup bed and a tank in the back. Something you ride around in while spraying weed killer on weeds around mailboxes and road signs and such. I had 2 of them and they had the white disk wheel. I can't remember what castings has the chrome disk wheels. Yeah that camper rig hasn't been released by matchbox in a while now. Well since at least 2018/2019. That's when I found them. I had 4 but the other 3 have been robbed of the wheels and passed on Anyway thank for checking out my video. 👍🏾😎
Brother, it doesn't matter how crude the bottom of that tanker truck is, I couldn't see it when you had it loaded on the back of the truck. That damn welding machine breaks from time to time, It must be made in China Lol. I swear brother when I go to the flea market and I try to find you some trucks and trailers I can't find any. I still am on the hunt, though. They're still plenty of good Sundays to hit the flea market. Later brother
@@davidbeeson1178 you probably gotta look in the boxes of loose castings. Those trucks and trailer are probably down in the bottom of the box or toat they usually in. I've watched David at T.W.Y.C.E. diecast show boxes of loose cars at shows and there would be several loose trailers laying in them. And I'm wishing I could reach through the screen and grab em. Lol. Thanks for checking out my work.
Great job with the wheel swap. Nice way of making the wheels fits. Thank you for sharing.

Trucks look good with those wheels 😊😊😊
@@bigcharliesmodelgarage296 yes indeed. 👍🏾😎
I like what you did with the axles, it is a good idea very clever i will have to try that 👍
