  1. Hello , I haven't posted here for some time but haven't quit modeling. I have noticed a very sharp decline of aftermarket manufacturers. Auselowe is still around . However I noticed American Industrial and now Scenes Unlimited have closed up shop and sold their remaining inventories to ST supply. I have been 3D printing quiet a lot lately however STL files are few & far between. * Late entry: I just found the forums store page.

    1937 GMC COE

    I had the urge to build a 1937 GMC cab over. Purchased a Flintstone 37 Jimmy cab and some Scenes Unlimited 20" rims & tires. The rear wheels on the trailer are from AMT (parts box). The remainder is scratch built. Its coming along slowly.

    Wilson flatbed upgrade

    Nice work! The nail strips are a plus! Got many a splinters from them in my hay day.
  7. Before the beginning of the 1937 GMC COE with a Phillips elliptical tanker . My original intentions were set on building a 30's/ 40's single screw mixer. Playing around with the Ender3 3D printer I found a mixer drum file. After coating the ender3 print with resin and sanding it smooth along with a printed funnel and a scratched frame for the mixer drum this is a "what if" so to speak. Being the 37 GMC has been used for a tanker combo I have a 1950 Chevy COE resin cab itching for a build.

    Experimental Ender 3 print

    Thanks! Sadly the wheels & Tires are from Scenes Unlimited that is now out of business. Looking at Mo-aluminum for possible future projects

    I have been searching the net for print files. I have found several really nice files for Rims, fenders, bumpers and some other items worthy of printing. Only one of which was pre-supported, No biggie there. Been keeping our Anycubic mono really busy! Not so much for the filament printer, But I did manage a mixer drum. Not sure if mentioning the various sites names is permissible or not .

    3D printing

    Hello everyone. Its been a long while since I posted here however, I have come across a 3D resin printer. I have found a plethoa of print files for a lot of things but 1/24 & 1/25 scale parts are nill. I was wondering if anyone knows of any sites that have printing progams available for Scale Trucks. Strictly for my own benefit & not for re-sale. Its a long shot, but what the hey anyway The squeaky hub gets the grease. Edited for typo}
