    You should try laying a terry cloth towel over your lap. Jewelers do that when they’re setting stones. You wanna talk about things that bounce when they hit the floor? Try gemstones. They ricochet like a bullet, when they do

    I’ve seen people take the thing that you used to drill the four holes on each side and use it for the Seiter other people have used other things also but I see that that one is pretty much the easiest

    When I saw your drill bit, I was wondering how you were going to add the wires. At first I was saying to myself that bit is too big for 8 plug individual plug wires. do you know what gauge that wire was?

    I finally finished this kit. It didn't turn out as I wanted but to my surprise, it looks damn good. Anyway, I put this model in my display case which is a beautiful OAKLEY sunglasses retail store display case that has built in lights . Its awesome, but I Anyway, I just realized my hood won't fit on because of the air cleaners. Did anyone else have this problem ?

      It may fit with just the carbs but I super glued the stacks on. I tried ranking them but the carbs are gonna come off so I am displaying the car with the hood off. I did a nice job in the engine compartment so its not that big of a deal.

    Hey Matthew, I hope all is well with you and yours. I was wondering why you use choose to not include a wire for the coil in your distributors? This is not a criticism at all, I'm just curious.
    Thanks, Steve

    How about the size , you know, AWG size ??? Of the wire, I've been all over this interweb and nobody will tell you what size, i got awg30 and its too big , i would appreciate your help, thank you

    • @modelcarvideos5829
      @modelcarvideos5829  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think these were 32awg but a little smaller is probably more in scale to 1/25

    • @MrMajikman1
      @MrMajikman1 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      32 gauge is probably closer to what you want for 1:25 scale. When you buy wire, the "gauge" of the wire is the wire itself and does not include the sheathing. So for 1:24 scale 30 gauge is probably correct, but for 1:25 scale 32 gauge is probably closer to what you are looking for.
