Hey guys, this is my first post. I've had my T-maxx since Jan. this year and it has been a blast. I'm a CNC programmer and I made this braces one day at work. Let me know what you guys think. How much do you think that they are worth. They are made out of 7075 aluminum. I've tried to break them and I can't. The kid that lives behind me has a motox track and we'll get some insane air off of the doubles.

those look damn nice man.. check ebay or other sights that sell um to get a price.. you could prolly sell a few though
 
Two years ago you could have made a few bucks on those. They look great! However with the excessive number of companies that made and still make T-maxx hop ups I dont think it would be profitable. And since the T-maxx is an old design now, and there are many choices in the MT market, there are much fewer people running maxxes anymore. I never run mine anymore and I have insane money in mine. But as I said before they look awesome!
 
Look great!!!
looks are second in my book.
Ill be impressed in a year if they haven't broken after a few gallons of fuel.

I'm in no way trying to say anything bad. They look like they will take a hell of a beating but only time will tell.
 
Good job machining. If only I had a quarter of that skill! What is the next part you will be machining? :hammer:
 
nice job. Like NCnitro said, if you had them a couple years ago, you could've made a few $$. I still would like to see it in action.
 
Well, if you next parts are savage related, I may be interested! That's some really nice work you did. Now just figure out how to mill 7075 bulks and you will be set!
 
woah those is []D[][]V[][]D!!!!! wow i love chrome stuff for my savage. you should Make me some for my savage. those are almost too nice to put on my savage and drive it. lol. nice work and welcome to rcnt!!!

I've looked into the savage braces because they are a little easier to make. I just have to buy a set so I can get the dimensions for the mouting holes. Thanks alot for all the compliments. They really didn't take that long to machine. It took me like one sat. to make them while I was at work.
 
I have a set of 7075 braces that I got from Fullforce RC. They still sell them but only in 6061. Like stated above the demand isn't what it used to be but since they are 7075 you should have an easy time sellin some. I paid $60 and they came with a CF center skid plate.
 
Edit:

Sorry bud, but you will need a few more posts (96) and a little more time here before you can sell anything here. You will also be required to post an asking price, best offers are not permitted by the rules either. Sorry, but we have to keep this enforced across the board with no exceptions in an effort to help protect all our members, at least to some degree. I hope you understand. Thanks.

Sorry! I wasn't really thinking. I was on my way out the door going to the lake and I should have read you guidelines for the board. Won't happen again :cheers:
