Hey guys! I am a machinist/die maker by trade and rc enthusiast by hobby. I am buying a CNC Mill and CNC Lathe soon! Possibly a swiss turning center in place of the later or in addition havent decided yet but thats so i can make small diameter long shafts like drive shafts. Anyways i have been trying to think what fellow racers and rc companies need that isent made already or the ones made dont meet expectations. I was thinking things like chassis, a-arms, driveshafts, links, bulkheads, diffs, and such! Any ideas as to what is needed? I want to have work for the machines before i buy (obviously not enought to pay for them as all my buisness wont come from RC)! I have done some work for Tony Moffre on his custom oval TC! I belive he was really happy with it! So please help me out! Thanks, Trever

I miss the solid and hollow titanium axles, especially for my nitro pan car. I know there is a bunch of stuff you could make for the 1/4 scales as well

The Losi JRSX Type R is the latest TC release from Losi but has been ignored when it comes to aftermarket parts. Lots of people run these. Items needed are: Aluminum Front C Hub carriers, Aluminum or steel battery trays (this car if very light with Lipos), and Front oneway assembly that allows normal CVDs. I have also seen requests for the front and rear differential cam belt tensioner adjusters in aluminum.

Here is an off the wall idea... make aluminum pistol radio throttle triggers. They would add flash to the radio and probably feel cool. People sell custom machined wheels... why not triggers?

Some easily changable machined front ride height spacers for pan cars. The KSG spacers require removing the front arms, something color coded like that without having to remove the front arms would be great.
