Realistic Palette grab frame from water jet cut steel. Designed and made for me by Scale Parts I have two available at £51 inclusive. NB what you see is what you get. The moving frame parts are welded together and come as they came off the machine, i.e. as you would expect some surface rusting and no finish. I will supply fixings as well 4x 3x10 stainless dome head bolts, 2 x 3x40 mm stainless dome head bolts and qty 6 stainless locknuts.

Designed and made by Scale Parts for me. Many thanks to Kamil

https://astecmodels.co.uk/shop/product_info.php?products_id=473 AsTec edge light led highlight light board AMBER now available The Astec Edge light was designed as a lightbar that will fit the wind deflectors of most trucks. The designed length is 130mm and provides 5 groups of 4 0603 edge lit leds. The unit has power tabs at both ends so that the wires can be easily hidden. The unit can be cut to remove 1 or two led sets from the end away from the circuitry and by 1 set at the circuitry end this gives optional lengths of 75, 105 or 130mm. The unit has a non Chinese voltage regulator for reliability and will operate at full brightness from 5.5 to 12 volts, reduced brightness below 5.5 volts The unit comes as a handed pair with 6 double sided sticky pads. We suggest painting the rear side and using the pads on the circuit side to mount them. Although these were primarily designed for wind deflector use their nature and flexibility means that other uses will spring to mind! Specifications working voltage: 5.5 to 12 volts at full brightness operating current: 18-20 ma per board Length: 130 mm but can be cut at 105 and 75mm with care

Has your truck got the edge?
