Good evening,

I have talked about using the 190°F die cast to add weight.

so, I poured on camera, a Zuru Metal Machines off roader.

Nice!

I was hoping to see a side shot of the car/casting you used from Zuru.

Thanks for sharing Doc. You have very innovative techniques and approaches to building and modding. Is that just lead your melting with a Wood burner/solder iron?
