    In reality, the threads on the tire were quite shallow since this is a on road vehicle, I'd say around 1 cm deep. In scale, we're talking about 0.3 mm, which very close to the thickness of the 160 g/m2 paper (0.22mm) It means I could probably reprint the thread and cut out the thread pads and...

    That's crazy. Snake, I think you should conduct a master class on cutting and assembling. But I have a philosophical question. Assuming there are 500 prints of this model ( if I am not wrong, 500 is the minimum amount for offset print), how many models will be built with such level of details...

    Hello all! Today is my country's birthday, we all celebrate the Independence Day. So, Happy Independence Day, Israel. This also means that I had some time to build. First, I have some update on wheel nuts. I found that the smallest hex key in my set is 1.5 mm in max width, very close to 1.4...

    Hello all I tried to find a way of making the nuts for the wheels. I have in my toolbox a screwdriver with changing torx heads. The T4 size is the exact size of the nuts in-scale. Firtsly, I tried to make a punch using the syringe needle. I cut the angled tip off, and then I pushed the Torx...

    Thanks Zathros for your advice I am almost sure we don't have this liquid tape product. The most common thread pattern is shown in the attached picture. The grid on the cutting mat is 1x1 cm (around 0.4 inch). The pattern has many small rhomb-shaped items. Unless I find some creative way to...
