Re: 300zx progress thread

G-man you are gonna have to wait a long time.

The rims were originally a 30mm aluminum tube. Cut into pieces on a lathe, and made those cut-outs for tires. Then i made a nice quarter-round lip, and polished 2 hours with a air propelled dremel like tool. It looks like a mirror, but there are some minor defects. Minor as I said. Now I'm gonna make the spokes oyt of styrene, and duplicate with a form and epoxy glue. BTW the rims will be RH J8 PRO replicas, my favorite rims for the last year.

I also bought an airbrush so I hope to learn how to use it kinda soon.

Cheers, AMNES
