I build RCs like people would have done back in the '90s ..................................... if they had 3D printers.

I was shocked to see he has the Spirit body. I'll have to pick one up now, I was always worried I wouldn't be able to restore one without a body.

Yeah that's ebay international shipping, it's not something the seller does- ebay just adds it. They base it off the dimensions and weight and of course add some money for their troubles. If you have a list of bodies you need let me know and I can forward your info. Ideally I'd like to try to steer him into doing a website to make things easier.

Yeah had a bit of a gulp moment when I saw the shipping then looked at the a&l version he does and the shipping is half the price but still f’n crazy.
Thanks for the offer to forward them on I’d be interested in a blue eagle ls, a trx-1 and a xx if he repros those too.

Ok yeah not sure if he will do the a&l interceptor trx1 or the xx-yz bodies, nor am I sure if he has the trx1 or xx buggy bodies. Best to just reach out when you see what you want and I can forward the info.

I was going through my collection wondering where I would get some more bodies and you just happen to post this. The timing is extraordinary.
I miss brushed motors in that hazy, everything seemed better when I was a kid, kind of way.

He does have the XX CR body mold. I think that's what it's called. He had a batch for sale for a while and I considered getting one because it's so cool looking. He also has a buggy rear wing mold. I was buying sets of 3.

Is there any thought of the body molds being added to Factory Work in the future? Just curious.

Have never done it specifically, but it's gotta be at least kinda fun firing up the vacuum table and getting after it. The smell of hot lexan, the swish-chunk of the equipment......like air hockey but different.
Hope you're doin' something fun.

I’ve tried contacting him via eBay to ask a few questions but so far no luck. Anyone bought any of these yet?
