The defender plastic body meadures around 41cm long x 21cm wide.
Think still ok la... Cos your body width close to ours, when lined up, should look fine.
No worries about it .
Burn more, oil!

Its been a while since the last update.
Done nothing much but trying to make an interior for the series II
went back to the drawing board and decided to go the leaf spring route.
Only did the front, the rear is coming soon.
The ride height is off, axial length is off. As the tires are half outside the wing, there is nothing much I can do. If I mount the ride height low, every obstacles is going to cause the tires to rub against the wing. I havent seen any Series II with fenders yet so I cant put fenders on the body. Actually There wasnt any scale to begin with, The whole body is based on this picture I found online lol.
should Have based on a series II blueprint. But Nvm, hey first attempt so lesson learned.
I am too lazy to build up the transfer gear, so planning to put a axial transmission
gear and call it done.

Wow, very impressive metal-origami!
I think you shouldn't worry too much about exact scale appearance regarding tire clearance etc. As you said if you make it exactly look scale, it will not work well on trails. Nature is not 1:10 in most places

I cut my square rod using a angle grinder . I drew a line through the centre of the rod for guiding my cut. You can use a jig saw or a hacksaw (but it will be a bit slower). Hope it helps!boolean21 wrote:Any tips on how to split the square tube into straight halves?

more small bits and adding details to the body. Hopefully I am able to join you guys next week.

Thats all for now.

Yes, do come along even if your truck is not ready. It gives us an excuse to bring a spare truck
Likely to be 9am. Wait for boss harakiri's announcement.
