    This may be a dumb comment but I was wondering about the time spent on flattening the decals. I THINK that on race cars of this era the numbers would have been painted on by hand. If so, there would probably have been some kind of a "step" between the bodywork and the numbers. Your models are beautiful, but these cars were essentially tools built for a purpose. I guess what I'm saying is, are your models pritier than the originals? In any case your models are amazing and each post is an education

    • @motorsportinscale2291
      @motorsportinscale2291 Před 2 měsíci

      You are correct in thinking the real car would have painted #'s and there would be a step. There is a few reasons for removing this step on the decals 1. the step with decals is from the clear carrier film, so does not align with the makings. 2. the step with the decals is much greater than the step from paint (not scale correct). Ideally, I would have made stencils and painted the #'s, but this was not in the scope of work for this project. I try and create as representative of a finish as possible, and go by references if available. In this case, I did find one color photo of the car in period showing it to be quite polished and shinny!

  • @krakenbuilt8804
    @krakenbuilt8804 Před 3 měsíci

    Another great video thanks for sharing! I've been curios about the process with these kinds of wheels. You mentioned you use a lathe aswell, may I ask which one you use? I notice your rpm is high on the drill, the flash point of white metal is so low, friction is probably melting the metal and marring the bit. I machine aluminum often and if it gets hot does the exact same things ruins the endmill. I wonder if some kinda tapping fluid would help. Lower RPM and possibly a carbide bit.

    • @motorsportinscale2291
      @motorsportinscale2291 Před 3 měsíci

      Thanks. The RPM is fine, the drill I was using was not very sharp so may have been a bit of cold welding going on, but mostly the issue with white metal is the chips do not clear and pack up in the flutes.
