Hot Wheels

I'll do a write up and drop it in here. For me the most difficult part was cutting the dados in the strips. To make the plywood interlock I had to cut two blade widths per dado . Very slow and precise. It's not rocket science but you want a pretty good fit. I dont have a mitre saw so I had to use the old trusty mitre box for the outer frame haha.

 

There's two more of the ice cream series, older releases so I'll probably have to Ebay them.

 

Really stoked to find this one, grabbed two!

 

I've seen the black one but didn't buy it. They're one of the coolest looking tooned out there in my opinion. I was unaware of other ones.

 

Jonas I know you like the food stuff. Have you seen the one by hot Wheels that’s a burger and fries?

 

Ya! I think there's a couple different variations/colors. This is the only one I have..

 

Nice! Thought you had it but wasn’t sure.

 

#2 ready for the wall!

 

Time to fill it. Don't worry, the 85' Black and Bruise Brothers will be relocated to another wall lol

 

Pretty happy with the results. Wasn't sure how it'd turn out but the second one went a lot smoother. Hopefully the 3rd will be better. This will do for now even tho I still have some that need parking spots.



On a side note, Mavericks are cool

 

what kind of bike is that? under the cover

 

One is my Triumph Street Triple 675 and the other is my Wife's Ducati Monster 696

 

Ahhh nice! I always wanted to own a 675 but they're too tall for me. Op for a cbr600, but sold the cbr to get the taco HAHAHA!!!

 

Too tall for me as well but I installed a lowering link from Lust Racing that dropped it 1" if I remember right. Made all the difference but sacrificed handling. I don't know any different tho so no biggie for me

 

What year was the 675? I want to get my hands on a speed triple! Love me some bugs eyes!!

 

It's a 2009, flat orange. I've seen the glossy orange paint scheme but mine is the only flat one I've seen. I'm sure there are a bunch out there though. That being said, I'm in Alabama. Not many Truimphs around hahaha

 

CA here only seen 1-2 gloss orange on craiglist. Most of them are either white/red/black

 

Hot Wheels Wednesday Week 34. Vintage Malibu GP from 1973. I know I've posted this one in here before but I haven't used it yet for a HW Wednesday.

 

Those came out beautiful. Pick a color yet? I keep going back and looking at them thinking I’m going to make one giant one for myself but I still don’t know what color or stain I would use.

 

Just showed this to the wife. Said I want to build one of these for my hot wheels room. Her office that she doesn’t use anymore. And was just told, I mean asked about her mother moving in with us. O well, I’ll get that room someday
