Great stuff old man! Today right now is the best time to build highly detailed models so many aftermarket parts available and 3D printing is the icing on top of the cake! Have a great weekend Donn and crew!
I haven't used Morgan's distributors yet simply because I was pleased w/ Norm's caps @ Replicas & Miniatures of Maryland. They are the common towered variant like most traditional caps & have blind holes in them but I elect to drill through to the underside then create my own aluminum body. In the past I've received distributor/magneto wires that I felt were too glossy so gently sanding w/1500 grit lengthwise resolved that issue. Reminder for other builders : multiply 1 mm (.03937) x 7, 8 or 9 (depending on era / stock or later era race wires ) & divide by your scale (25 example) to figure your wire O.D. if you order your own wrapping wire. One source is Jonard - should be list online for outer diameters. 1/25 = .012 to .015 MAX !! 30 gauge is for 1/18 scale so you need a higher number (smaller dia.) for 1/25.
thanks for sharing first and foremost talking about jo ann fabrics seen a guy use Aleene's original tacky glue to dab over gauges and headlights what do you think i half to try it 8oz 5 bucks would last a lifetime scooter out
Used to be some awesome stuff from Ukraine. But not now. These companies mentioned have been around forever and make great stuff. If you haven’t heard of them you gotta been under a rock.
I'm a huge fan of Charlie's stuff from Pro Tech, especially his distributor and plug wires. First time I got an after market distributor that was almost the same size as the kit distributor. Out of curiosity what gauge wire is that you were talking about getting a spool of? I bought some 30 gauge online and it was too thick. I don't know if I need a smaller gauge, or if this stuff's shielding is just too thick.
Thanks for posting the gauge. Great point about staying in scale so to make sure I don't honk this up does anyone have a pointer/link to appropriate wire off Amazon or similar?
So just for shit and giggles time your done with a model how much do you have in it .all detailed well over a 100 bucks .just asking that would be a good Friday show.

Hello Donn, what glue do you use to glue aluminum aftermarket parts to engines on your models.
30 gauge wrapping wire is the wire he's talking about 10$ and it will last a really long time
Thanks for posting the gauge. Great point about staying in scale so to make sure I don't honk this up does anyone have a pointer/link to appropriate wire off Amazon or similar?
Just a? How do you replicate a vinyl top ?
i have heard masking tape. i have personally not tried it yet though.
Good day thanks for the content I would like to send you some 9V batteries for your smoke alarm, please provide a mailing address 😀 joking not joking
Hey Donn, when adding all these after market parts to a build thats going to be in a show do I have to enter my build in the custom catagory?
No . The only class that would be left out would be the box stock class ….
So just for shit and giggles time your done with a model how much do you have in it .all detailed well over a 100 bucks .just asking that would be a good Friday show.
Change the battery in your fricken smoke detector!
