Custom Hot Wheels Braille Racer Twin Mill - Joining the Twin Mill "Sisters"

[@MapleLeafCustoms]

Nice work, Jim! When I saw this casting had come out I thought of your Twin Mill series and knew you’d be adding it. I had to go to the Hot Wheels Wiki site to quench my curiosity on what the Braille text says. On the blister it says "HOT WHEELS TWIN MILL”. The two sides of the car read "Twin" and "Mill" respectively. The rear of the body reads "#68". The base of the casting simply reads “Twin Mill,” along with Braille text translating to "Hot Wheels.” Now yours fits perfectly on the Twin Mill family tree! Enjoy your weekend! 🍁☕👍

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much Andrew! The braille writing is interesting…but a polishing nightmare lol. Hope you have a great weekend!

[@charlesdiecastgarage]

Thank you for adding to the twin mill family, Mr. Jim, beautiful family you got there!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Charles!

[@madilynramos5720]

That’s such a cool addition to the twin mill family! I never knew they made a braille version of a hot wheel 😲 The build really came out cool 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Daughter! It really is a cool addition to the family :)

[@urideamabal]

👍 I think the engine looks good, in that finish. 🔥

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

It’s an interesting look. I’m not sure if I would like a more chrome finish better though, so I might give it a try.

[@Superbirddiecastofficial]

Nice work! Never thought I would see a custom braille twin mill, but it works well!

[@AndreT313]

Jim that twin mill looks great. Very nice job. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks for watching Andre!

[@mykeymyke4894]

I think it turned out well! The red looks really good on this casting.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks!

[@aaronglaab6304]

A fine addition to the family! Engine needs chrome to match though. Make her shine

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Aaron! There’s a darn good chance I’ll chrome the engine. If I do, I’ll post a pic in the community section of the channel.

[@Rollormotor]

Love the results Jim, I am a big fan of the Twinmill and you do an amazing job of bringing the sisters together. It looks a little odd with the windscreen red, maybe a gloss black would make it look closer to the rest. The family shots was my favorite. Redlines are a must. thanks for sharing

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks so much! It’s been a lot of fun bringing the sisters together 😊. I thought about doing something to reflect a windshield, even possibly a decal, but decided against it trying to stay somewhat true to the concept of what they were trying to do with the casting.

[@ghettodiecastcustoms7988]

What a beautiful collection. Can out great. ❤

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Miguel!

[@RoadWarrior_John]

Another fine edition to the collection, it has a really cool sci-fi look to it now.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks John!

[@Woulda-Shoulda-Coulda-Was-HWRL]

Excellent, love the Twin Mill Family. You would think for the blind they would put more detail on the engine rather than less, but what do I know! I really think you nailed it with the color. Thank You!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

You’re right, you would expect at least the same detail, not less than the original. Thanks for watching!

[@joeholloway1386]

Nice build, details and paint job.!!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks!

[@lotharrenz4621]

a toy car for blind people... one can not accuse them of not having ideas! looks nice and sleek. I didn't know there are so many Twin Mill versions... that's funky. :)

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Thanks Lothar!

Thanks Brian!

[@markrobinson8865]

Great job Jim and the next one could be the monster truck version, and a Twin Mill car hauler 🤔

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Lol I seriously doubt you’ll see me do a monster truck version - I’m not a big monster truck fan. But any other variations are fair game.

[@markrobinson8865]

@@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms how about the car hauler or tow truck

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

@@markrobinson8865 you never know lol

[@mortenhenningsen940]

🇳🇴 Yeeeees!! Another twin mill!! Turned out great. I wonder what it says on all those panels... floor? Engine? Twin mill?,

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

According to the hot wheels wiki…Braille text on the blister reading "HOT WHEELS TWIN MILL". Braille text on the two sides read "Twin" and "Mill" respectively. The rear of the body reads "#68". The base of the casting simply reads Twin Mill, with Braille text translating to "Hot Wheels" on the base.

[@mortenhenningsen940]

@@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms cool. Thanks. With no more twin mill to do,you could allmost start å series with; "could have been å twin mill",

[@skippullen8667]

The "Family" is getting bigger, Jim. I saw one of the on the pegs a couple weeks ago and wondered if you might do it this way.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Yep Skip, when it turned up in one of the Black Boxes, I knew what was going to happen to it lol

[@madmel8t6]

Found a Zamac version at the grocery store yesterday October 12th. It’s engines are chrome plated. You can buy it and switch them out!

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

Cool! I'll have to watch for it and give it a try! Thanks!

So what does this car serve for the blind people?

[@2ahdcat]

I'm doing a custom of this too 👍

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

👍

[@Carspotter682]

I actually own and did an unboxing video of this very Twin Mill Brilled Edition. You should check it out in my unboxing videos playlist.

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

I’ll have to check it out

[@Zippy_Zolton]

I like the casting (especially so because of your custom), but the official release being intentionally ugly and pale seems patronizing, braille isn't exclusively for blind people, and most blind people don't have pitch black vision, it could've been appreciated by more people...

[@JimSilva-SilvaDiecastCustoms]

I’m glad you mentioned that Zolton - I had many of the same feelings. There’s no reason a blind person, if they were to purchase a car, would ask for the most bland looking one on the lot.
