Negative at this point in time...

What are you going to do about windows?

The list does change as new moulds are made and older ones die and wait to be remade.

Due to log in difficulties I let my regular reading of Auslot fall away but with Vinno’s help I can now log in and see what I have missed. I have been busy producing body kits though.

Think I have a brand new unused one somewhere... Negatives for you are that it is not in a bag and I am in NZ but could ship for $19.00 plus whatever you think the chassis is worth. Message me if you are interested.

Good stuff, he certainly appears a real character. I enjoy his slotcar/food posts on FB.

A pleasure to attend this most enjoyable event…. Thank you Mac and thank you Phillip.

Kurtis and Epperly

I am still involved in producing items in resin and vacform. I have always dealt directly with any individuals and am very happy to continue to do so. Find me on facebook via MVD Resins or simply message me here. If youhave my email address then that works too. I would publish pictures of some of my latest work but my pictures are on my phone and my phone doesn't want to log in to Auslot.

I have had contact from Bob Chapman an Englishman residing in Canada asking me about our scene as a friend of his, Chuck someone, is visiting sometime in Feb. I said if Chuck was about on a Thursday then I would drag him along to whoever was hosting and expose him to the motley crue....crew. OK? TIA.

That is certainly the right style, glued in the right places but if you can bend the wire with your fingers it isn't strong enough.

That is only half of the story but... Happy New Christmas Kevan....(I forgive him because he is from the northern hemisphere) To completely remove the hop you need to account for the weak chassis between axle/bearing mounts and the motor mount....do this by gluing piano wire bracing from each bearing top to the motor....no pictures sorry.

They look very similar to the BWA motors....except for the two mounting holes with m2 thread either side of the can end bearing. I like to be able to screw mount a motor.

Now sold, and posted.

I have a 20 pack of BWA S Can 14k RPM motors new unused. I dont want to sell them all but make me an offer at ten dollars each. Talk to me.

Impressive slot Haj, Pat. Go that man........to the school prize giving!

Check out the offerings from SmoothOn.....but this negates the buy local ethos.

I am good at that

Thanks seems a bit lame, maybe mucho gratitude would be better? I appreciated the invitation Mac otherwise I might have just been on the couch at home instead of interacting with Hawkes Bay's finest selection of slotjockeys. Pie Bone 400 you say?

open it up and get a good look at the brushes and commutator especially where the wire attaches to the comm. A bad joint here can affect performance....

Showing up Thunder Road on Thursday 12th Oct is not happening for muntre. Thanks for the invitation though.

The tools aren’t the problem They are part of the problem then

Mark, might I suggest you invest in some slightly heavier duty tools. Such as a decent bench vice(100-150mm wide jaws), some linesman pliers and some needle nose pliers of solid construction and size. Perhaps a pair of similarly solid side cutters too. I trust you have a hammer of some sort. The list continues with some sort of motorised grinding stone, (burning of finger tips is possible) I invested in some wire bending pliers from Micro Mark years ago but they were too lightweight to be much use. I also purchased a wire bending jig from R Geo but working it was a mystery. These days I use my eyechrometer and tools on hand and just sort of freestyle it. Your mileage may vary.

Core blimey.... something new in the motor department, eh? And breaking here on Auslot! I am tempted to make a purchase

Now I am confused.... Munter/John.......Who is that? X stands for ex ..... maybe you are a Charles imposter from the deep dark valleys of the ‘naki?
