Sweet work, especially the tonal harmonies between the green areas and the warning fields.

I sure hope that driver has adequate ear protection or the OSHA/HSSE crowd will have your posterior for dinner!

This is really nice. Why don't you make another and get Ainsty to cast it so we can have one?

If there's enough interest we will do - major parts are stock so it's only really the fans that would need casting  ;)

That's a great conversion and awesome PJ.  The rubber is very convincing.  The hazard stripes must have been a pain to paint.  Good job.
This is my boomstick!

Version 2....



The fan unit will be going into rubber in the next few days so, fingers' crossed, in production in a week or so.

Price is going to be around £15 including either an astro or regular buggy driver. Drop Andy @ Ainsty a line if you want to jump the queue  ;)
