They're all hand cut & polished- no cnc involved.

Perhaps you could build an Emaxx type truck for your next project, given your insane metal working abilties I think you could produce something rather good....

Hand cut huh?.. What do you use ; band saw? That must be some nice cutting for a hand cut product!

Candyman2 · 02.08.2007, 05:45 PM

Thanks all.

Yeh the Razor and the flame chassis I cut by hand, as in hacksaw and files.

its only recently I put the designs into cad and got them lazered out, the first razor I still have but the first two flames I cut by hand 1 I sold to rc4wd in california and the 2nd to a chap in Hawaii

As far as I know (I follow all the candymans's work- he has serious skillz) its all done with hacksaws, dremels & metal files. He only just got round to buying a miniature vertical mill, before that everything was done buy hand- literally. You'd have to ask him how he does it exactly, but it starts with drawings, then cardboard models and so on.

edit: same time post, but it seems I was correct!
