Hi there.

I like to build radio control trucks. I also make tiny magazines for said trucks. Don’t read the competitor’s magazine, Cwalring Monthly. That publication is full of lies and broken dreams. And candy.

Severed Heads

I’m a big fan of James French. He’s known as BeetleLover over on the Tamiya forums. He is a genius with resin and sells his heads for vintage Tamiya models. The level of detail is absolutely...

Rally Carts

My friend Headquake and I both have Kyosho DRX-VE rally cars. In my humble opinion, this is the best bang for your buck when it comes to the joy of  RC rally racing. It’s great fun right out of the...

Class 3 FJ40

This rig was a collaboration between myself and Jason Wall, who used to do some pretty incredible metal fabrication. I don’t think he’s doing custom work anymore, which is a shame. I built this truck...

Land Cruiser FJ60

  I’ve been working on this stupid thing for a long time, and it’s still nowhere near being done. It’s certainly a labour of love. There’s something about the lines of this truck that really appeal to...

FJ40 Cwalrer Shakedown

I took the 45 out for a run near the lake, on the only rocks Toronto has. I think they were granite. Very nice rocks for Cwalring. It was an opportunity to see how it actually performs before it’s big...

Hooray! Traxxas paid for another 63 paid ad and we’ve got another issue ready to titillate all your cwalring needs!

Road Cart for Carting

I picked up this Falken Porsche HPI Sprint 2 Sport to play carts on the road with, and maybe scare senior citizens. This body is very nicely detailed. I’m not sure how the stock RTR electronics are, as...

Small garages.

There’s been a real push lately for people to make small garages/workshops to show off their miniature carts and turks. I’ve been fiddling with the idea for some time now, and I’m happy with the start....

Double Hambones

I love this thing. It’s made by Vaterra (Horizon Hobbies) and is probably the most fun I’ve had out of the box with an RTR. Locked, solid rear axle combined with a open front differential makes for...

“Getting Through”

I found this excellent Youtube video today and felt I needed to share it with the masses. It features a bunch of awesome vintage Toyota examples doing what they do best. And it’s in Australia, so it’s...

More FJ60 business.

Well, I keep slogging away on this build. It’s so much work building from scratch. There are a few guys out there that can knock them out in a couple of weeks, and I’m very envious of them and their...

Triple Hambones?

Hey, neat! Remember this guy? Sure you do. I’ve made a couple improvements that make this an entirely better experience on the trails and rocks and city bits where I live. On first glance, it’s just...

Cwalring Digest June 2013

The issue barely made it out this month. We took all the money we made from Traxxas ads and spent it on a trip to France.

Triple Hamboned Video, for reals.

As promised, here’s the video for the Twin Hammers. It’s an amazing amount of fun, because it fits in a backpack and is pretty much unstoppable. Go out and get one, lickity split.

And the Class 1 Winner is…

I put this truck together for the upcoming RC4WD East Coast Nationals this August.   It’s a pretty mild build by most standards. I wanted to do a quick build that featured as many RC4WD products as I...

Triple Hambones New Junk

New junk from GCM Racing!    All these pieces are 3D printed, and bolt right in, replacing the stock roof and driver plate. Just prime, paint and install. Gives you a very distinct look.   These are...

Hambones gets Better

I’ve added a bunch of new parts made from aluminium. It should make it go faster and crawl harder by a factor of purple.   As you can see, there’s a lot of nice pieces from Hot Racing . The bits...

Land Cruiser FJ60 Interior Work

I’m not going to use a lot of words on this post, I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves. Enjoy! I can see light at the end of the tunnel. Or I left the light on in the hallway.
