AMT Wilson Livestock Trailer (Progress Update #2)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 сер 2024
- So here is another update on my 1/25 scale AMT Wilson Livestock Trailer.
I'm kit-bashing mine into a more modern 53' tridem axle unit and I'm going to hook it up to my blue and white Kenworth K100 Cabover.
The trailer body is almost complete and the suspension turned out nicely.
I'll do another update before I showcase the final build and now I'm hoping to finish it soon!
Once again, I am very humbled and grateful for all of the compliments, likes and especially your subscription to my channel!
I look forward to continue building and showcasing my work! - Авто та транспорт
Hi Karl, Another great How you build it video! Sorry to hear about the blue paint orange peel. Temp and humidity! A 53' tridem is just right 👍🏻. A modern bull wagon side is doable. A small drill press jig & metal square, and a scale template to make the holes(slots). Add in patience & time. It would look great and make people that's cool. Going to look for part 3.
Thanks Mark!
Looking good Karl !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks man!
@@karlturon427 Your getting me in the mood to build one. 😉
@@THROTTLEPOWER I really like that idea buddy!
@@karlturon427 👍
That becomes the awesome trailer behind your blue-white Kenworth K-100. Those rims looks stunning in blue with a chrome trim.
Thanks friend... she's gonna be good!
Hey Karl glad to see your latest update. It is looking great, I really like the blue paint on your trailer wheels, that matches the tractor. I'm so amazed at how well the seams come together. This is going to be a real eye catcher when she is done . Keep up the great work really looking forward to seeing this finished up. Take care. 👍
Thanks Harold, I always appreciate your compliments!
Nice work , Karl. Getting there.
Thanks Charlie... slowly but surely lol!
Look really cool mate👍
Thanks again... cheers!
Very nice, beautiful work. Even on my best day my finished version would not look as good as your in-progress version.
I appreciate your kind words... Thank you!
That looks awesome!! I had some really good spray paint that was bad. Very frustrating. But if anybody says anything tell them it's undercoating!
I got a Peterbuilt 352 cabover pulling my bullrack. The trailers boxstock but the Pete's stretched a bit and slightly cool!
Right on Tom... thank you!
Looks really great keep up the good work round 2. Did release there international transtar COE -4070A I have 2 of them on pre-ordered glad they did that it's an all new kit they even. Have painting mask for the striping and new decals they fixed the inaccurates of the ERTAL kits had
Thanks Dennis and I am sooo pumped about the 4070A! You know they are going to do the Paystar and the other cool stuff... right on!
@@karlturon427 +yep it a good time to be a truck modeler now if we could just get them to make more 1/16 truck kits it would be great just think if the 4070A was released in that scale
I like where you’re going with this. I’ve been wanting to make a 53’ spread axle bull hauler but a modern one. Not sure how to pull off the side panels though
Thanks Doc! It would be cool to see a modern cattle-liner but those updated side panels would definitely be a challenge... that's the fun of it all!
@@karlturon427 I thought of talking to someone that does vinyl wrap type decals and see if their cutting tools could cut .010 sheet of plastic. It's not much thicker than the vinyl. That could then be backed up with all the reinforcements ribs on the trailer, giving the look of a modern bull hauler..
@@DocsKustomKorner52 That would work pretty good I think... they definitely need to be die cut or if you can find some type of sheets that have a pattern cut already. Like in an art store or craft shop.
Either way, I say you have the right idea bud!
@@karlturon427 Thinking to have them die cut would work as long as the cutter holds it's line/shape and doesn't track off grid..
How did you get a tri axle
I made it from two tandems.
