Concrete = click- its just regular stuff with nice gravel/ pebbles mixed in, to break up the plain grey colour- usually only see it on older buildings or driveways these days though.

Loving the black & silver, though the pure silver finish was kinda stunning too. :yes:

I believe the "concrete" in his picture is actually paving stones. The uniform shape, layout, and unevenness leads me to believe this.

Of course I was to busy drooling over the truck to notice concrete and had to actually go back and look to figure out what was going on with that comment.:whip:

Stumpjumper, I really think you may get bored with this truck and should go on and ship it to my house. :yes: The address is.............:intello:

@ simplechamp - because I think it had the strongest contact betwen tool and screwhead.

I hope you like it...

:surprised:.... Gosh... it's such a beautiful build... That all black hummer body sure adds some personality to the truck... it seems pointless to compliment you on the design and build because you
already know it looks so damn good... but, I must... great work man... the thought process and engineering that went into the truck is just outstanding... I am sure if you got these parts in the
aftermarket seen, they'll do very well... glad you could share it with us here.

You hope we like it???? How could we not!!! Definitely one of the most epic builds ever. Very well done.

The greatest build ever!

TG

Indeed very very good!

WOW!! Very nice work.

I have a CNC Router and have been thinking about making some custom parts out of carbon fiber. What kind of speeds and feeds (tool RPM - cm/minute) did you use to get such clean cuts? This is the machine I have:

Thanks!

Damn that is a beautiful truck. How rigid is that chassis with the cage? In some pics it doesnt look like it has any bracing lick the truggy chassis.

Also, a stretch, but have you thought about doing a limited production?

@ all - thanks


@ rc4x4nut - Yes I think about a conversion kit but not full. Only for the normal Nitro-LST´s. There are so many things I arranged in the gear box. The motor mount is so complex. I don´t want to build it again.


@ JAILBIRD - I use VHM tolls (VHM = Full Harded Metall). We used it normaly to cut hardened steel (about 58-62 HRC).

If you toke normal tool stell cutter it´s blunt very fast. Speeds and feeds - very slow! It´s a matter of feeling. Also lining. Carbon is so disgusting.

And don´t forgett to exhaust! We have a very big exhaust system. It´s the big pipe you can see on the pics...

and the smaller one I normaly use for this stuff

You are an inspiration. This build is extraordinary. Makes my builds look like child's play. I don't use a CNC, I don't have the knowledge to use them (yet) or the CNC machining either. I do most of the stuff by hand but for cutting CF, diamond disks make a very clean cut. For making holes and counter sinking, Carbide or Tungsten carbide bits and end mills cut through CF like butter and also make very clean cuts. I can only use high speeds because I make the cuts with a cheap router on a small router table and it only has one speed, fast :mdr:
Thank you for sharing this build, it is truly wonderful.

Well, thats another truck I have to inseminate I guess...

Awesome setup you have there, turned out some truelly stunning work with it. :yes:

After 3 run´s....

It´s still the first slipper. It alived the nitro stuff and the last conversion whit the Big Maxximum at 18 NiMh Cells. But now I need a new one.
