Personal blog of my scale model build projects, ranging from 1/12th scale motorcycles to 1/43rd scale Formula 1 cars. I am also discussing about various aspects of machining in metal using Sherline lathe and mill, of course related to scratch building scale models.

Some updates
Due to a long business trip, the progress on the bike was slow. But since the last update I still managed to design the front brake caliper, headlight, handlebars and the fuel tank.
Thinking how I will make these parts, I suppose the tank can be made easier with modeling putty or even 3D printing, the headlight on the lathe (or use the plastic part from a Revell kit) and brake caliper again using 3D printing.
Still have to design the mounts for the fuel tank and the gas cap.
