Posted: Fri Jul 20, 2018 4:22 pmOh no. More practicing with something I never heard of on a slot car. I guess I'll have to lock the doors to the slot car area, supply a serious flagon of beverages and a bushel of snacks, and learn yet another skill I never heard of... THANK YOU!!!!
I do silver solder (that brand) for piano wire, so I bet I can do this gorgeous thing. I can't wait. Thank you again. Pictures to follow if I do anything worth seeing!

Posted: Thu Jul 26, 2018 6:53 amTom puts his heart and soul in his builds. I have one of his sprint cars that he had built for me. There is nothing out there that compares to his builds, from his soldering skills to his realistic looking builds. He is the best. Hands down true to scale builder.
He pays attention to detail on all of his builds.
Thank you very much my friend,
Keep up the superb builds.
