I've had a little break from building my car and thought I'd make a phone Gantry for the track.
I know you can buy one from Magnetic racing but I want mine to look similar to the one at Donington at Starkey's.
So I brought the longest Gantry the boys at Magnetic Racing sell and have chopped it up and made it wider to fit an old Android phone.
   
   
   
I used the blanks panels that have the light holes for the advertising boards, glued them together and cut the shape of the boards that were at the MotoGP in 2004 with Cinzano sponsorship.
   
   
I'm pretty pleased how these look, next job was to make part of the old Brick bridge.
I managed to get one arch in on my layout which is handy for looks.
I drew out the bricks roughly and then cut the underpass section out.
Then got a old soldering iron out and started shaping the bricks.
   
   
Next was to work on the Rocket car which I got printed from John May(thanks John) the black image is how I received it.
It need quite a lot of filler in areas. Thats all done and a few coats of filler primer and sanding. I glued the little frame sections to the bottom using off cuts from the Mag racing kit.
Next is to paint it blue.
   
   
   
I need to get some colours I'm missing to start painting the brick section, I'll probably paint the rocket next.
Here's how it looks on the track so far.
   
Cheers for looking.
