well i have learned how to correct the color problem when trying  to photograph my rc vehicles. shot them in a black box. this really gives the real life look as opposed to the colors being way off as they have been in the past. worth the few bucks i spent buying the black foam boards.

sorry it has been a while since i last posted. things have been pretty hectic around here lately. well i decided to snap some updated shop pics for everyone to see. as you can tell i have still not finished everything but i’m getting closer as time passes. one day i might have the room finished. i just hope that day comes before i fill the room. lol

I picked this up on ebay since i am always having to test out steering servos to see if they work or not. this way i can test the servo’s without turning on a radio. this tool can also be used to center a servo to its neutral position. when building a car that is something that has always been a pain to do without hooking up all the cars electronics and having a charged battery handy.

testing the item was fun. it worked flawlessly. the only issue i have with it is the led’s that they put in it when making it. they are simply just too damn bright. when looking at the device you can not read anything on it because of how bright the led’s are. i see a piece of electrical tape coming in handy for this thing.

all in all the device is great. works like it should. makes life easier. and looks cool to boot. i recommend that every one should have one in their pit box.

i dug my old tumbler out so i could try it out on cleaning p some parts. i have a soft corn media in it currently. after 24 hours i didn’t see much difference in ether the metal parts and the plastic parts. now i still feel that it would work if i had a different media in it. so i will start looking for that and try it out again at a later date.
