@Pat_ranch Is that a new Ford Bronco up on the pole? GOAT mode baby! :ROFLMAO:

That place is lookin' good.
Goat, tahr, and a chamois. There'll be elk on every dark column in the great room, with 2- 400" bull elk on the stone pillars on the landing. Gonna start seeing more bone on the walls pretty soon...
 
Easier! It's thin so it's lighter, and it doesn't break if you only hold one side up like sheetrock!
And most of the great room ceiling is even eco-friendly! It's Recycled! (Or, in this case, literally pulled off of a few local barns). And the lovely melody it makes while cutting it- poetry, I tell ya.

I get tinnitus just thinking about that sound.
 
Jeez, why not mount Kratons on every pole? Instead of bone, decorate with broken Arrma parts!
@Pat_ranch and I named the garage/slaughterhouse Carnage-y Hall a couple of nights ago, so don't worry there is a (significantly more gruesome) place for the RC trophies)
 
Had to rig a temp shock mount for the notorious after blowing up an M2C standoff.

I landed a smallish backflip (on the wheels, even!) on the big ramp and ejected one of the rear shocks. Broke the rod end, and mangled the standoff. So I'll order another set, and hope my trash panda standoff holds til they get here...

I also started to rebuild my son's turphon into more of a desert racer looking buggy. It's got potential!

I think I can mount this cage pretty securely with a little luck

I kinda dig the look so far.

Now to fix the broken arms and tie rods so he can break it again! I think it'll get a new set of shocks, too


Oh, yeah. Added fans to the new typhon, too

Liking it👍👊
Looks like it could a use a bit of cleaning though😉
Looking at this makes me want to work on my desert buggy too (got quite a few parts laying around). Was actually planned for in two weeks, but now maybe a bit sooner😜
One tip: I made my own rear mud guards for both my desert buggy and Mojave and this is a night and day difference for sand on the rear shocks and in rear wheels.
 
Replaced broken rear driveshaft on the Granite, mounted the belted MX28's on the Granite as I ripped and unglued a couple of the non belted MX28's that were on it. Also installed new Mojave front shocks and removed front bumper so I don't have to butcher the new body. Thing looks like a Bigrock to me now lol. Also will be trying something new for reinforcing the body going to do ducktape and then a layer of acrylic latex caulk over the tape.
