I am working on a project and have a scan of the R/C 914 shell; I had to take a break from the mini mill while it is down for repairs again and am utilizing the 'down time' (that happened quite conveniently to finish the project, actually)

anyone care to guess what I'm doing with it?

here's a clue: someone that needs nomex socks put me up to it.

la di da...

Making new RC car bodies that fit on normal chassis?

Jeff,

While that is indeed on the 'to do' list... nope. This is practice that will lead up to that, though.

Trophy?

Christmas presents? Put peoples names on them with the 914 silhouette and you got yourself a plaque to hang on your house.

Well to jump in here. I have a hpi Cup Racer that would love to add a 914 body shell to the mix! let me know if you get there! i will buy one

hmm... still needs a little bit of fine tuning.

I made a wall hanging for my 6 year old for his birthday.

It is the beginning of next month; now I am waiting on some red vinyl to put his name on the side of it.

Very cool Jim

Great idea Jim!

Can you do that in a piece of aluminium??? That would be cool , or posibbly colored plastic.

Jack

colored plastic would be easier. I am sure I could adjust the code for aluminum, it would take awhile to do and would probably be better cast instead of machined.
