I love these build series. I love the hinge body mount. A tutorial video with more details on hidden body mount ideas would be cool. I'm always scratching my head trying to figure out how to mount hard bodies and still have reasonably easy access to the chassis/battery.

You mentioned packing the trucks in a pelican case. Have you ever thought about making a video on packing the trucks and gear for travel. Requirements for airline travel or shipping?

Nathan Farley great idea!

brazing on a metal grate is more difficult, the steel of the grate will absorb a large amount of heat and the solder will be less successful. try using a pair of pliers to hold the piece in place and move the main piece away from the grill. And…nice job, as always 👍🏻

I'm always amazed at the work you do on these trucks. This is another great example of your skills. I'm looking forward to the paint job. Thanks for taking the time to put the video out.

Love the hinge man. I think the body looks better with your mods than it did stock. Can't wait to see it perform. -"Angry" Dave

Awesome build! You and Josh make building these look so easy. Started my first scale build and am banging my head against the wall. Lol! Thanks for sharing.

FYI, it's not necessary to wait for a previous coat to dry completely before applying a subsequent coat, and it prevents things like your previous coat off-gassing from happening. Pros generally just wait until the coat is tacky and then apply subsequent coats. This also gets rid of the need to sand in between coats. Keep in mind that this only applies on a step-by-step basis. Obviously you should let your paint cure properly and sand between the primer, color and clear coats, but within those steps, its best not to let it dry completely before you lay down more of the same thing. This applies to working with solvent-based rattle cans as much as it does to working with catalyzed two-part finishes (like 2k Clear or Dunlop car paint for example).

Beautiful Class 2 truck!

Great trick for brazing. Doing it on a granite tile is buch better. It does not act like a heat sink for the heat and its easier to get the metal heated where you want it with out the metal grate you use taking all the heat away from the part you are heating. (Heating...) They make little 3' extension hoses for the tanks. make it a lot easier than wielding the tank all over the place.

Man!!! I think it looks cool as is!!! Lots of the Toys that I see on the trail all kinda looks like yours!!!

Looks killer!!

I think this thing is going to perform well. I need to figure out a similar bumper mount hinge for lexan... If you didn't know, 6-32 unc tap will thread the inside of that brake line quite nicely. Make sure to ream the lip before tapping it 😏 (if you cut it with a tubing cutter).

That transmission is gorgeous!

When you have fun doing what ever your doing we all are winning

Great metal slider idea!

It totally looks like a jelly bean. Paint it lime green with Jelly Belly (Scale ‘e’ Jelly?) on the side.

Do you get an extra point every time you make someone laugh at a Josh joke? Jelly bean is a contender!!!!!!

I think the rig looks bad ass!

You got this pal you'll make it on time

Well that's genius, give me some great ideas thank you. Always a pleasure watching your videos, I didn't care for that body at first , but it looks cool. They say never judge a book by cover, wait and read a couple chapters first . I'll be watching more .

Cool video and nicely presented, yes 2 Jelly Bean, excellent 😎👍

I use a $100 jewelers torch with oxygen/propane mix. Much easier to do fine brazing and details without heating up a huge area

Lovin the “JellyBean” Great tuck!

I've given the Cherokee 6×6 color a thought. They came in a really nice darkish green.

pretty cool 👍🏼🤘🏼

That Jelly Beef is hideous. I can't take my eyes off it. I love it. Hip Hip Hooray for Jelly Beef .

Comp 2 rig is looking great. Are you going to cover the exposed frame etc in the bed of the truck?

Awesome job on the inner fenders, are they scratch built? They look really great.

If Josh was painting it, he would finger paint it 🖐

PETG has been hit and miss for me. For shorter print times PETG works great but I notice for the longer print times I get a lot of warpage and it eventually loses adhesion. I like using it for things that will see a lot of abuse. Good night and good luck.

The rear fender well openings need a little more rounding out

Looking good Jellybean is a good name ….keep it....

Can’t wait to see what you have planned for paint. So can you direct me to where I can find those metal tabs you used? I have looked for “scale built” on sbg but can’t locate him. Thanks Matt

I’m new to painting bodies, and I want to make weathered bodies but don’t know how.
