Arrma Senton slider off Ebay. 2WD SC. Figgured it is about time for a chassis upgrade. Be my first short course truck. Guess they're here to stay. Retired the 20+ year old Rustler ST to static display. Starting a project thread once it arrives. Uncertain how it will shake out. Take it as...

Scored a Ryobi Workbench Light from THD couple of days ago. Had to settle for the more expensive HiPerformance 2A battery pack. That's all the store had in stock. Would have preferred the less expensive regular 2A pack. HiPer 2A takes a long time to charge using the charger that came with my...

Wolfie, you are doing some serious tooling up. Watcha got in mind? Going full bore on 3D printing RC stuff? Is the RYOBI table saw 1+ battery power? 'AC'

Ha. And I thought I was the only one that didn't know what the "axial whatever" is. :) 'AC'

Aluminum angle stock today's buy. R1E speed runner has one last stand left in her. For that she gets a new chassis and new designation. Aluminum angle is gonna end up somewhere. Probably my last stand as a chassis builder too. Heck, I'm even gonna buy a new band saw blade to celebrate...

Ha, o.k. Doom! Always there are concrete blocks. But I wouldn't wish that on a visiting bench racer. Back when I was posted to Atlanta, '93-'95, I had a 24" diam. tree stump in the shop to sit on. Wish I had it now. If for nothing else, it had character. Yeah, those med bills. Lost my...

Picked up two metal folding chairs for the workshop. So you guys will have someplace to sit when you stop by to bench race RCs. Probably pick up two more next time at big box. Sticker sheets for the monster trucks arrived from MCI in Canada. Now I can catch up on stickering the MTs. Cheers...

Been a while since I've hooked up to the big screen to watch YT RC. Laptop died and no connectivity from the desktop. Have a chromebook replacing the laptop. Need to see if that works. As far as buying today, have a Vanquish Incision AL motor mount and gear guard for the SMT 10 on the way...

Dell Chromebook. Now no need to sit at the desktop to interact on this forum. Portable for the workshop too. Still using the desktop for word processing. Liking the larger keyboard and screen over my smart phone. Cheers. 'AC'

Liquid Solder Flux and Soldering gun tip cleaner and . . . I ran out of budget. Crickey, solder supplies are expensive these days. Had a fresh roll of 63/37 solder in my hands. Yikes. $22+ USD. Put it back and will use up the Radio Shack roll. All this came about as a result of being...

Oh yeah, Chubaka. That PL '911' Silverado will make for a great MT presentation.

Hey guys. Adding to the general chaos, going all 'Road Warrior' on Emilie, my AE MT10. Only now placed an order with Amain for the RPM mock blower assembly and exhaust side tips. Could not decide between black or chrome, so got one of each coming. Thinking the blower hat vulnerable to...

Thanks for the 'Likes', guys. I stand corrected. Over the weekend found the sweet spot for the vacuum base lever. It grips my semi-smooth workbench just fine. Makes it an even better buy and recommendation. Cheers. 'AC'

Articulated vacuum base mini vise. Went by Harbor Freight for another purchase and brought this home too. Vacuum base doesn't grip on my bench top-surface is too rough. There is enough base weight to hold it steady for what I do. And it is multi adjustable with a swivel ball base.

https://www.amainhobbies.com/arrowmax-dash-rtune-540-sensored-brushless-motor-17.5t-amx-da-740175/p724022 Need a 17.5 sensored, so picked this up on sale. Never used this brand before, but the price seemed right enough to give it a try. Hopefully, the old Novak Havoc Pro ESC used in this...
