I have to stop and clean/reorganize very frequently! My brain just gets overwhelmed and agitated w/ disorder! That's so awesome about finding the pictures of ur childhood builds!! I wish I had any pictures of my childhood builds. I did not know anyone printed old-school-style pictures anymore!! lol I just ordered that Chevy gasser engine (& some other parts). It will go in the gasser that will be towed by the '60 Chevy pickup that I'm having u upsize tires/wheels for.
The engine in the '39 kit is the same one that appears in the Mngm '66 Malibu kit. I value the same type of memories as well, still having pieces\parts of old builds and\or photos, and rediscovering them. Good times, lol.
Very cool to have found the negatives.
There are websites that have conversion calculators on them. Some have where you can go from full size down to any scale or from 1 scale to another.
Cool old pictures Matt I like seeing old childhood memories ❤
FUN VIDEO! Nice to see you back at it!
Your not normal, lol. Glad to see you less stressed,have a great day.
What a wonderful red I'll have to get some
Matt, Good to see you back in your shop. When you get the pictures back from the negatives post them for us we would like to see them. Joe
YES!!
While it's far from an exact science, I've resorted to measuring kit pieces as reference. I'll break out the calipers and measure valve covers or the oil pan of a corresponding component, and scale the 3d model in my slicer as needed. Again, while it might not be perfect, it has helped to get new powerplants all comfortable in their new homes!
Love that color you chose.👏👏👏. I give a shout out to MCW on my current build. I shot bright anodized aluminum ME8000E on the mufflers. Compared it to soda can aluminum 😮. They nailed it. Thanks again Matt for introducing MCW. 👍. Ok, carry on.
Try putting the engine in the freezer. Sometimes that works for removing glued parts.
Glad to see you back Matt. I love those 3d printed engines.and the paint! Wow.
Nice to see you back in your shop Matt. Wow you really do have many kits and display models. You need to start working on your second container. Your eye wear is fine if your comfortable with them. Thanks for sharing.
That color is beautiful Matthew! I wish I'd kept all my old builds. I threw them out when I moved. Smh. I'd give anything to have them back!
Nice 😅....at least you have pictures of your past builds, me just one. Oops on me 😂😂
I remember building that 39 chevy kit when I was 12 or 13. That kit went together really well.
Very cool Matthew! The older I get the more I'm interested and things that pertain to my childhood. 😎👍
Keep at it man. Nice video
Great to see you back to "normal" Matthew! To scale 1:25 to 1:24, increase it by 1.0416666667%. Thanks for sharing the photos and your memories. By the way, your 39 Chevy looks great too. 👍👍
Hey Mattew , you've got a couple options for your blower base repair , you could cut or saw the front portion off of the blower base off and move it to the rear or if the top of the blower has 2 holes bored in it , use a paint brush and put a couple dabs of Bob Smith's debonder inside and it'll likely separate. Good luck .
Matt, I am glad that you were able to step back and relax. I am sure Ruth is happy that you did it. You may have become nearsighted as to what is important in your life. Models is your hobby, not your life.
Beautiful paint...I'm going to have to get some of that.
Really cool 👍
Matthew. They have a stuff that you can use to loosen super glue. I picked it up at Hobby Lobby. It's called Un-Cure it's from BSI Bob Smith Industries. I used it a couple of times and it seem to work good.
If it's designed in 1/24 scale it down to 96% to get 1/25. If it is designed for 1/10 then print at 41% for 1/24 or 40% for 1/25
Engine Perfect fit
🤜🤛 😉 👍
The older you get, the more nostalgic you become. It's easy to get excited finding stuff like that. I didn't build a whole lot of plastic models as a kid. Most of them were aircraft and at some point I used to blow them up with firecrackers! Trying to replicate movie explosions. Lol! Somewhere I have a couple photos of the last model I built in 88/89 of a 70 Nova SS, before I graduated High School and went into the USAF. I didn't build another plastic model again until 2005! For the love of God, man! Please purchase a new camera! 😂 Peace and love.
Hey Matt there was also an Aston-Martin DB4 and an alpha-Romeo in the series with that Jag. There may have been more but that is just the ones I have.
Clean, organized work area, What's that? The last time my work bench was clean, was when I was rearranging the area. That was over a Year ago. My poster collection is much hotter than the one of fonda. I have been drawing female figures since I was 9 years old. It would be nice to see some prints of those old photos. Fond memories, definitely.
Just placed my first order on your website. Im looking forward to seeing the products. Im super excited about the mega truck tires and wheels
Cool, welcome back. That red color on your 39 chevy is very nice.. Would be different with 6 cylinder chevy engine🤔, anyway take care😎👍🏻
Great video. Other commenters have given you the information to convert your printed parts to the scale you want, so I’m not going to do that. But you way want to take the size of the actual 1:1 scale part to get you parts down to 1:24 or 1:25 scale. Thanks for sharing.
I'm liking the big block 460 Ford, I'll have to get a couple soon.
Matthew there is no way to know if that kit motor is the right scale. Keep up the good work.
I honestly don’t know how guys can have several different kits started at once lol, it would drive me crazy to have multiple kits open. I have to finish one before starting another one lol.
wow great vid Matt i agree life never stops diggin the bootlegger killer build dou thanks for sharing😁🤩ps those dominator hollys ae kool going to check those out now 😋scooter d😎
What color is the body painted? Sharp looking!!!
awesome video once agaian lovin the hobby since 84 and keep building more wish to have the space you do maybe we could also do a work bench idea or orginize tips just an idea
Hi Matthew, I wouldn't sweat the difference between 1/24 and 1/25 scales. Two feet in 1/24 is only 0.04 of an inch longer in real life than two feet in 1/24. I challenge anyone to see a 0.04 inch difference even close up. I have a sneaky suspicion that resin Chevy engine isn't totally accurate. As for chaos, I thrive in it 🙂The only time my workbench is clear is between builds. Cool that you came across those old photos!
Or, use the Monogram block, which will be hidden by those fat fenders, and print some nice intakes and valve covers to fit.
My biggest complaint about resin 3d print engines is that they don't have starters and that makes me have to scratch build starters for them.
Heck, I would promote your products. Show'em off.
that's not his product, he didn't design it
@@mrb2917 I thought he mentioned wheels from his site?
Put a Ford in the Chevy Matthew. Call it a gasser named ‘Revenge’
Speaking of engines how about a small block FORD hint hint
The 3D scaling has always been all of the map from what I've come across. I've been told by a couple that they basically scale at 1/24.5 so it's an in-between compromise that works but also is never right. (I think that was Iceman but not 100%), Texas 3D states all his is 1/24, which I find odd because it's all American car stuff when majority of US cars in model form are 1/25. So I would think you scale for the majority if anything but not my business to say. And then like you said some just make it scale to itself but not to any specific scale and have received some oddly small ones that were advertised at 1/25.
4% is the scale difference so if you have a 1/25 file, printing at 104% would be 1/24 if everything is uniformly scaled. Or the vice-versa would obviously be at 96%.
The 39 looks good in red, makes me want to bust out the 37 project I have to do (Stone, Woods& Cook) Doug Cooks candy red 37 coupe.
Can you set your 3D print to a different percentage to print, say 107% to make the engine bigger?
yeah it's easy, you can scale in any diection or all at once
@mrb2917 I figured you could but I don't have a printer
I know this is off topic, but you referenced "full" and no room, are you still adding on to the shop? You mentioned a while back about doin it. I'm like you, running out of room!
I think your 3d prints are in between I find the carbs are a bit too large for stock 4 barrels . The bigger ones are fine because they are huge anyway. To be honest the kits are not consistent. I find the small block engines in 1/24 scale kits to sometimes be too large .and some of the smaller parts are too small even for 1/25. The Monogram 56 Thunderbird is all over the place in this matter. A nice overall kit but I have problems with scale accuracy. We either smile and build it or get obsessed with these things. Unfortunately I tend to waste time on this stuff 😅
There is a conversion chart to convert to different scales in the form of different percentages. Let me find it and I can email it to you as an attachment.
I’ve gotten older Rolls-Royce phantom two model partially built no directions. I know you like these kind of models. I was just wondering if you could send me a Modle kit drop me a line thank you.
You almost have to use your 3D printed stuff. That could be the reason you have not finished it until now. And use it to advertise your products.
If you didn't design it you shouldn't be selling it
A lot of things are made and sold by people who didn’t design it themselves. Now he could have permission from the designer to sell their work especially if the designer doesn’t want to deal with the hassle of shipping them out.
