Watch me turn two Jeep Cherokee bodies into something weird looking for‪@scalebuildersguild‬.

Meticulous work, especially enjoy the precise sawing, and the saw itself, in this case it really is 'measure twice, cut once', a fun idea and pure class, thank you for letting us in your workshop!

[@turksandjerps]

And thank you for watching!

[@ToyRCota]

Its meditative and educational ! More build videos plz ! Turkeys n Jerpys!

[@JK-qv8sv]

Wow absolutely brilliant. Can't wait to see er all painted and mounted up on an scx10 ii 6x6 Or trx-6!!

[@Jeepy84]

The music is as trippy and surreal as the project, lol. Excellent work as always Master Noob

[@turksandjerps]

Thanks!

[@gerrysoldguyreview]

Mr NooB wish I had 1% of your styrene skill! Great build as always!

[@turksandjerps]

Oh I bet you do! Thanks

[@matk4731]

WOW that’s BIG ! Nice work. 👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃

[@turksandjerps]

It was a bit unwieldy at times. 24 long inches complete

[@sprather84]

Incredible work my RC brother

[@jaytucker1]

Wow! That is impressive work!

[@turksandjerps]

Cheers

[@44punisherable]

Super awesome build!

[@turksandjerps]

Thanks! Did you see SBG’s recent trail video of it?

[@44punisherable]

@@turksandjerps I did and was very well done with Josh and his camera work! I commented on his channel saying why haven't I seen this? I had a feeling it was you. I work way too much to follow everyone and really miss the old days of rccrawler forums. Hope that Betty is doing well

[@vipxj1]

Awesome. Wow you work quick.

[@turksandjerps]

10 days of work into 6 minutes :)

[@vipxj1]

If it only ever took 6 minutes. You make it look so easy.😊 What chassis are you going to use?

[@BANTAM53]

Always impressive Richard!

[@gabrieldyker1014]

So sad I can only like this once.

[@PhoenixRCCrawler]

A ton of work but it paid off. 👍🏽🐒🇺🇸

[@turksandjerps]

I think so too

[@TheAmericanUhate]

Is this the one that ended up on Scale Builders Guild channel or did he build another one? I've seen the real life full size 6x6 XJ in the wild, was pretty damn cool, and looked like the one you just built

[@turksandjerps]

I built this body for Scale Builder’s Guild. It is the one he painted orange.

[@TheAmericanUhate]

@@turksandjerps I sent him a picture of the full size version I seen lol. Apparently 2 exist in full size. You did amazing work on that body too. I wish I was half as good as you are lol

[@romeogamit7155]

Good job on the build. Was wondering if you do special request for a fee of course?

[@khj94704]

I love these build-them-up-and-sand-them-down styrene builds so much more than the more recent 3d printing dominated body mods. Any reason you're using MEK-substitute instead of the real mccoy? I recently moved out of California and bought myself a gallon of the real stuff the other day to tackle my shoddy styrene modeling.

[@turksandjerps]

It’s what’s readily available around me and it works so...its what I use

[@japkill1548]

Amazing work!!! How did you create a seamless line between the two half’s? Is it just glue and sanding?

[@turksandjerps]

Yep, glue and sanding and having a nice tight fit also helps

[@Lulu_racing]

I saw this on Instagram 🔥🔥🔥 looks good

[@turksandjerps]

Thanks!

[@bsfunk44]

Would you share with us which iteration of the XJ body you used here? There are a handful available in different places and was wondering where you got yours....thanks and great work.

[@turksandjerps]

I think this would be the Team Raffee? Not the Injora. I got it from JS Scale.

[@Blackjack8289_]

Awesome build! What do you use for adhesives?

[@turksandjerps]

MEK Substitute is used to bond the pieces.

[@rcmike09]

Was that mek substitute you used with the clippings? Does that just make like a glue puddy??

[@turksandjerps]

Correct and correct. It makes a filler with the same properties as the body for a strong and seamless joint.

[@ivadavis]

hi! what is this brown dough to join ?

[@turksandjerps]

Brown dough? The red paste is body filler to fill small gaps. Not used as an adhesive.

[@ivadavis]

@@turksandjerps OK, thanks ! what is the brand of this dough?

[@turksandjerps]

ivadavis The brand is Bondo. It’s called glazing and spot putty.

[@ivadavis]

@@turksandjerps ha thank you, I'll get that! ; ) good continuation for the construction of this 6x6
