Yngwie 17 Report post Posted November 17, 2014 So are we happy with the same mounts I made for miveson? I am planning to machine them early this week. - Cam Good for me Cam! Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charlesx 55 Report post Posted November 17, 2014 Hi Cam. I am perfectly happy with BWA equivalent dimensions and would prefer exactly the same. If you use Solabotic motor (when allowed) you can keep motor clear of car cockpit and install full driver. This would most likely not be possible if side arms lengthened. I prefer offset.

kalbfellp 69 Report post Posted November 17, 2014 I don't use them as I don't like the limitations of the brackets, was just adding my observations when I build several cars for a club series. Having to alter them to sort axle height is just more work. Quote Phil Hobart Miniature Car Club Tassie Resins Email Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Camber 19 Report post Posted November 26, 2014 Quick update, the brackets are machined. I now need to de bur, chamfer and fold them up. I am going to make a jig to make folding a bit easier and consistent. Quote Hoo Roo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

munter 153 Report post Posted December 6, 2014 Hello Cam, being a brass and wire man I would like to take five of the rear brackets off you. When you are able please PM me your details and I will respond. Regards John Quote John Warren Slotcars are my preferred reality Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charlesx 55 Report post Posted December 7, 2014 Hi Cam. I see Munter wants 5. Can we perhaps look at a NZ order then distribute locally. I would happily order another 5 if that will help. Regards Chas Le Breton Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Camber 19 Report post Posted December 20, 2014 Thanks to everyone who bought the brackets....all sold now except for some fronts. I can do another run of brackets if required, will probably be a delay due to Christmas and another big slot car project I have on the go. Have heard from most people who are happy, any issues send me a PM. Cheers - Cam Quote Hoo Roo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattcrackers 71 Report post Posted November 15, 2016 (edited) Just wondering whether anyone can help me out with some dimensions for a 1:24 motor bracket. While I'm awaiting some parts I thought I'd start on making up the motor bracket. Hopefully someone has something similar to DM's post (#39) in this thread. cheers Matt Edited November 15, 2016 by mattcrackers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
