Jon Haigwood Posted Tuesday at 07:07 PM Posted Tuesday at 07:07 PM Any place carry 1/8th scale Engine Pullies ? Some resin parts do not do well in shipping.
Rick L Posted Tuesday at 08:02 PM Posted Tuesday at 08:02 PM Bummer. You would think they’d use a more reliable material for fragile parts. 1
NOBLNG Posted Tuesday at 08:23 PM Posted Tuesday at 08:23 PM You could salvage the pulleys? Then you would need to make a belt somehow.🧐

peteski Posted Tuesday at 11:18 PM Posted Tuesday at 11:18 PM Yes, just remove the "belt" material from that pulley, create a groove, and make your own belt. in 1:8 scale that will look more realistic than a 3D printed belt. I have done this on kits as small as 1:43 and IMO it improves look of the engine compartment. If I can do this in 1:43, you should be able to pull it off in 1:8.
Jon Haigwood Posted Wednesday at 04:48 PM Author Posted Wednesday at 04:48 PM I have decided to use the pullies from the kit .
