I see enough pine vises for the next half... of the century :) However you might need to order a second set of aluminum dampers pretty soon!

Haha unfortunately I thought i added one… but realized that invoice says two.. so… (this happened to me few times… where i thought i got one.. but two)

There's an elastic band round the dampers so I'm voting for two pairs being in the pic.

I actually got 2 pairs for my M-05ra!


 

(btw apologize for 3 comments in a row. Just realized i can quote multiple comments in one reply.. doh)

That has definitely happened to me before 😅 usually with something impossible to resale 😐

I received quite a bundle of parts from Japan yesterday, but this is the one I’m most pleased to have got my hands on - very rare carbon conversion kit for Tamiya F201 cars made by 3Racing. I’ve also listed it on the main site where there are more pics. One of the other parts I received is quite quirky - a FF01 spur gear set with a spring clutch, apparently helps reduce wheel spin from a standing start for a FWD car - we’ll see!

A delivery came from Pargustore today. I know they say sand scorcher but I think I might try these on my Frog.

Very nice. What are your plans for it?

I'm planning on something other than box art.   I have a Scorpion that's box art so I'm thinking through some ideas.   I may look at having the metal parts powder coated.   I'll post a this though over in the building tips to see if anyone has experience with this.

Technically yesterday, these landed from RCJAZ. I was skeptical because they were the only place showing stock and I've had a bad experience in the past where they've shipped everything else then offered me a credit for bits they ended up not having.

This time it's a happy outcome though, since all 3 pieces arrived (plus a bunch of cheap TT02 parts). These bumper plates will make a nice finishing touch to my TA05R, TA05IFS and F103GT. Lovely!

Lovely jubbly - less than a week from Plaza Japan. I also got a little eraser, hopefully that can help with all of these "financial mistakes"?

A pretty beaten-up Marui which I will restore as a light runner at some stage. Already grabbed a few replacement parts for it.

Car 2 of 4 from the past week's spending spree...

This one will be built to launch specs, because box art isn't a thing, but essentially as per the images in the instruction booklet.

Another motor for my office collection to complete my "front row" on stands.  Just one more used (Dynatech 02H) and one NIB (Super Stock RR Gun Metal) to find...

Not really what the postman brought me but what I bought at the local hobby shop today. Avante Mk. II body, wing and decal sheet and Impreza WRC Monte Carlo ‘07 body set. Not sure what I’m going to do with the Avante Mk. II though since I don’t have a DF03
