Giles Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 (edited) I've just finished converting an Autocult resin model of the Morris J van. A surprisingly small vehicle. There's nothing ground-breaking about this one at all, however it did require a different approach to the front axle, due to everything being smaller than the previous lorries. Whereas previously I have fabricated the stub axle assemblies incorporating 2mm dia rod to accept the flanged bearings, this time I profiled them 2D from 1mm brass using my Stepcraft INC mill. This allows a much more compact axle assembly (which was also CNC'd). I've managed to squeeze in a 500mAh battery which should last a full day. http://youtu.be/sZ08JiI5438 2019-03-12_05-18-21 by giles favell, on Flickr 2019-03-23_05-22-58 by giles favell, on Flickr Edited March 23, 2019 by Giles 6 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
