    Thank you for adding to the twin mill family, Mr. Jim, beautiful family you got there!

    Nice work, Jim! When I saw this casting had come out I thought of your Twin Mill series and knew you’d be adding it. I had to go to the Hot Wheels Wiki site to quench my curiosity on what the Braille text says. On the blister it says "HOT WHEELS TWIN MILL”. The two sides of the car read "Twin" and "Mill" respectively. The rear of the body reads "#68". The base of the casting simply reads “Twin Mill,” along with Braille text translating to "Hot Wheels.” Now yours fits perfectly on the Twin Mill family tree! Enjoy your weekend! 🍁☕👍

      Thanks so much Andrew! The braille writing is interesting…but a polishing nightmare lol. Hope you have a great weekend!

    👍 I think the engine looks good, in that finish. 🔥

      It’s an interesting look. I’m not sure if I would like a more chrome finish better though, so I might give it a try.

    That’s such a cool addition to the twin mill family! I never knew they made a braille version of a hot wheel 😲
    The build really came out cool 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

    Love the results Jim, I am a big fan of the Twinmill and you do an amazing job of bringing the sisters together. It looks a little odd with the windscreen red, maybe a gloss black would make it look closer to the rest. The family shots was my favorite. Redlines are a must. thanks for sharing

    • @JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms

      Thanks so much! It’s been a lot of fun bringing the sisters together 😊. I thought about doing something to reflect a windshield, even possibly a decal, but decided against it trying to stay somewhat true to the concept of what they were trying to do with the casting.

    A fine addition to the family! Engine needs chrome to match though. Make her shine

      Thanks Aaron! There’s a darn good chance I’ll chrome the engine. If I do, I’ll post a pic in the community section of the channel.

    a toy car for blind people... one can not accuse them of not having ideas!
    looks nice and sleek. I didn't know there are so many Twin Mill versions... that's funky. :)

  • @Woulda-Shoulda-Coulda-Was-HWRL

    Excellent, love the Twin Mill Family. You would think for the blind they would put more detail on the engine rather than less, but what do I know! I really think you nailed it with the color. Thank You!

    • @JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms
      @JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms  Рік тому

      You’re right, you would expect at least the same detail, not less than the original. Thanks for watching!

      According to the hot wheels wiki…Braille text on the blister reading "HOT WHEELS TWIN MILL".
      Braille text on the two sides read "Twin" and "Mill" respectively. The rear of the body reads "#68". The base of the casting simply reads Twin Mill, with Braille text translating to "Hot Wheels" on the base.

  • @Zippy_Zolton
    @Zippy_Zolton Рік тому +1

    I like the casting (especially so because of your custom), but the official release being intentionally ugly and pale seems patronizing, braille isn't exclusively for blind people, and most blind people don't have pitch black vision, it could've been appreciated by more people...

    • @JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms
      @JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms  Рік тому +1

      I’m glad you mentioned that Zolton - I had many of the same feelings. There’s no reason a blind person, if they were to purchase a car, would ask for the most bland looking one on the lot.
