The metal work on that sand scorcher is mind-blowing. Forums are still by far the superior media for sharing/following these detailed builds, which is why it's so upsetting to watch them lose traffic to Facebook and other garbage apps.

[@cookeemon67]

Agreed, same goes with companies for me. I rarely if ever buy from a company that is facebook only

[@fozzy7199]

@07:28 Kevin Talbot would approve of that color.

[@WinstonCorneilius]

Fab110 should get build of the decade! Every time I see a new build post, it’s absolutely insane!!!

[@triangleofdeath6246]

That Toyota 6x6 , the sand scorcher, and the volvo are particularly impressive. I especially love the bed full of miniature rc car boxes .

[@scalebuildersguild]

You and me both!

[@jdsrcs8061]

Dang!!! All are amazing!!! My personal favorite is the orange blazer. It perfectly represents builds from Offroad Design. A member of our off road club had a blue blazer that he built with parts from them!!!

[@peat30]

Thanks a lot 😊

[@cenreaper9127]

The second one you showed is a great showcase of how many damn shifters K30 has.

[@MyraHodgkiss]

SBG Forum always putting out the highest quality builds. Everyone featured is so talented

[@derekhell666]

That Jeep FC is gorgeous

[@scalebuildersguild]

Agreed!

[@scottlempert4515]

Wow, super flattered!! So many amazing builds!!! How cool, yes video will post soon, I took a break from it for a bit, now back to finishing the interior, then a working video. Thanks Matthew, Happy New Year!!!

[@nuge74]

Congrats Scott, beautiful build sir!

[@scalebuildersguild]

You deserve it! Happy New Year to you too!

[@JokerInk-CustomBuilds]

Scott Lempert is a genius.... I just bought one of his RC hotrods and that yellow thing is a marvel to behold! He was the one who inspired me to start building myself and he is a super nice dude!

[@scalebuildersguild]

Couldn't agree more!

[@evintacy7272]

What great bunch builds! Love this ! Should do a monthly edition love seeing all these awesome builds😊

[@rc_amigos]

Maybe this should be one of resolutions! I need to hop on the SBG forum more! I LOVE seeing everyones craftsmanship. That community is amazingly talented!

[@scalebuildersguild]

You can do it!

[@ateaserc]

I am humbled you highlighted my FunBringer build! Thank you, amazing builds as always on SBG!

[@nuge74]

Awesome build sir!

[@scalebuildersguild]

You shouldn't feel humbled, you rightfully deserve to be in the Top 10! Happy New Year!

[@davidburke5686]

Love this new tradition, so many awesome builds and builders on the forum.

Well deserved to be included! Happy New Year!

[@TR850]

Volvo TP21 „Sugga“? Awesome!!! Are you from Sweden?

[@loopone]

@@TR850 no no no, I’m from their much greater neighbor Finland 😁

[@kenbrandmier3678]

The VW at the end is an amazing piece of work. I've been working on a custom built flatbed for a 65 Chevy C10 Proline cab on an upgraded SCX10.1. It's my first RC but turning out to have a few cool features. But, It's clear I need to learn to weld, especially small aluminum, to make really interesting stuff. Very nice job VW guy, your work is amazing!

[@moosejawrc]

Amazing work from all. Love LoopOnes Volvo Suggs, but the metal work of the fab1Tens sand scorcher makes me feel I need to work on a workshop. Love the seats

[@Spor777]

So many amazing builds. I have a hpi venture kit here that is un opened. I will have to look through the forums and get some ideas. Thanks for the excellent video as always.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Have fun!

[@reefturkey]

Love these builds and kudos to the builders for pushing the envelope and setting a great standard to follow.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Stay tuned for Best of 2023!

[@MrCaprinut]

Awesome builds for sure. Kudos to the builders. Regards from Caprinut over there 🙂

I'll be getting all my current generation rc's up and running.

[@ScaledRC]

My favorite video of the year. It's where I get to draw Inspiration for future projects and techniques. Great builds everyone

[@ScaledRC]

The lowrider is such an impressive build

[@scalebuildersguild]

There were definitely some amazing builds this year!

[@andrewrichey7374]

Casper the friendly ghost wow that was one of my favorites cartoons back in the day

[@scalebuildersguild]

Great cartoon!

[@joss67uk]

The guys have been knocking it out of the park again, beautiful work.

[@nuge74]

New Year resolution for me is to try some new to me building techniques, love learning new things. I agree there is no replacement for a forum and SBG is top notch! So many awesome builds there and congrats to all the members who let the creative juices flow. The Scorcher build is unbelievable, so awesome to follow the progress, very inspiring! Thanks for putting the annual compilation together, always a fun episode and feel honoured to make the list this year, thank you!

[@scalebuildersguild]

You deserve the honour! Happy New Year!

[@daledavis8093]

I always have, what I think is the best New years resolution, its "do what ever I want to do"

[@scalebuildersguild]

Agreed!

[@ClassicSteelRC]

Awesome video Matt! Every one of those builds were absolutely incredible! I've got total respect for all the builders and fabricators in this hobby and hope to eventually get there too! 👏👏👏👏

[@scalebuildersguild]

I couldn't agree more... there's a lot of amazing craftspeople in our amazing hobby!

[@urbanarborist1160]

Happy New Year to ALL! This video was exactly what I needed today... Sitting here contemplating winter project ideas! Thanks Matt. 👍

[@Brian_Mowry__BMOW71]

Happy New Year SBG and to all! Fantastic builds! The SBG forum is a great place to find the inspiration to start new builds! Many great builders and designers to be found there!

[@scalebuildersguild]

Couldn't agree more! Happy New Year!

[@josephdavis2695]

So much talent on the SBG forums for so many years. I’ve been a lurker for well over a decade (I think my RCC login goes back to 2002?! I would’ve found SBG around that time as well, assuming it was live. PardonMyNoob lured me over…). I think 2023 is the year I start posting some of my builds.

[@scalebuildersguild]

I encourage you to start sharing your builds... it's a great community!

[@robertrosson1990]

Happy New Year to everyone.Fab 1 most definitely did a fantastic job with all the metal work hope it doesn’t get covered with paint and hide all that beautiful metal work.

[@GrimJerr]

2023 is the year I Break the Budget and get back into Sim Racing with a Direct Drive wheel and pedal setup, Building a Zen9 7900x, Asus Strix X670E-A Mobo, 32Gb DDR5, and a Nvidia 3060ti FE, all on a Samsung Galaxy G9 Neo. Oh sorry you meant RC ? ha ha M-08 Escort to start 2023 and I have everything for a VS4-10 GroundFox LCG using the Builders Bundle I got for Xmas, except the Body. I am thinking of the new Proline Volkswagen. After that I have a Frankenstein build converting a Halo Warthog toy into an RC Crawler using my 3D printer and the many leftover parts from upgrades to my various 1/10 trucks. Then there is that TT-02 on the shelf for ? who knows ?? Maybe a Traxxas Slash Ultimate in the spring as an early B-day present for myself. Wishing all A good year in 2023

[@scalebuildersguild]

Wow! Sounds like you'll be busy. Happy New Year!

Love all your videos. I have yet to buy me a crawler but looking to get one in the coming weeks. I would love to see a video of what you think the best rtr crawler is out of the box versus which one you would pick if you was going to modify it. I know I will do simple mods (servos, wheel and tires, and esc) but not sure how far I will go, just depends on how hooked I get. once again thank you for all the great information and entertainment.
