    I have lots of hobbies. Some sit for long periods of time while I either contemplate completion, or move on to some other challenge.
    I really enjoy building miniature models out of stuff I find.
    Here is my latest contraption, an RC car that I added a ton of detail too.
    I made the hard top out of polystyrene. the grille is also completely fabricated it originally came with stickers. The bumper shackles are made from cotter pins, and the antenna is a guitar string. the rigging slings are shoe laces and the cooler and tackle box are scratch built.
    It started all out as an Axial SCX10 rock crawler, Called a Dingo of all things. I went crazy with details.

    This thing will go anywhere you point it. I waterproofed all the electronics and bearings. It will run completely submerged in water with out a blink.

    Here is a video I put together. Oh ya, I do that too.
