Way too many tires... |

The problem with making tires is you have to use up all of the Vytaflex before it ages on the shelf (which would be a waste of money at $24 for the two part
mix). So, I keep making tires until I have enough to shoe my entire collection in red. Next up, finally, BLACK tires and also WHITE tires. A throwback to my HO
Tyco days...the color balance is off but you get the idea...

Save your rejects. They make better tire barriers than the originals as they are softer.

You could stack rows of red and white, blue and white etc and glue them all together to sell as scenery tire walls....

I have realized that instead of spending a few minutes guessing (not that hard really) which tires are for which brands/wheels, I will simply make some balsa
stick stands and drop the finished tires on each stand. Also, you are right Dan, now I can "sacrifice" lots of tires to use as scenery pieces, etc.
Have you got your tires yet Dan? Tat, yours will be out in tomorrow's mail...

Our posts show 1 minute apart... but your idea wasn't posted when I clicked 'reply'. I think we should share the credit. I'll split my first batch of white tires Super8 sends to me if you'll spilt your red.
