Try those places, plus sift through these boards a bit. Roger Corrie posted his how-to here not too long ago. He goes by vaBcHRog.

Road Race Replicas is a place you can get wheels, though I don't know about light bars. (I assume you mean like on a cop car?)

Hope this helps

hi thanks for the info. i am new to the bored so i am not sure how to find a memeber direct. one link you said doesint work but the other one i looked at. do i need to by a speshal oven? and yes i am looking for police,dot light bars. do you know how i can go about making windows? and the link to the wheels site didint work. if you have any more tips please let me know

do you know were i can get the road racer wheels? a site were i can buy them? and how do i make windows?

I checked both links and they seem to work for me, although the Alumite one was kinda slow loading.

The place i referred you to is Road Race Replicas. http://www.ho-slotcars.com/ (It probably didn't work because I didn't give you a link the first time.)

You won't need an oven for standard resin casting. Windows I can't help you with. (I haven't actually done any casting...I'm just recanting advice thats already been given.)

Like I said, sift through these boards for stuff about resin casting. There's lots there. Just be patient...slot cars aren't a hobby for the "gotta have it now" hobbyist.

Make sure you post some pix of your completed castings. Thanks! rr :thumbsup:
