Are you using a hand saw or a motorized saw like a scroll saw? I thought about making TVPs myself, but figured it would likely go this way and I have so little time for RCs anymore the project would never get done. Ideally I'd like ~20" wb and use a Redcat Rampage body.

I'd like to see how the FLM bulks do. I got a set myself w/ the BP diffs in them. They are not as easy to open as the stockers, but I'm hoping that shouldn't be much of an issue as the diffs should require less maintenance overall. The only real trouble I had with my last set of diffs (Cens in the OEM bulks) were pinion gears breaking, likely due to the large amt of flex in the case and the cast metal used by Cen to make the gears.

Its not like this is a truggy where you will be opening up the diffs often to change and tune the diff fluid.
