 Hey everyone shaper 1000 here most you guys can see today We're gonna be working on a slot car on my new mat my blue mat and monkey got me So we're gonna be building a car This one came with I believe it was the night glow set that we had just bought Little rough tires are bad. Well the tires were okay They were working and I put them on monkeys car and we're just kind of like that one's cracked right there Sorry about the lighting. I can never get the right lighting inside or outside. I don't have studio lights I just grab whatever light I can grab So I'm gonna zoom you in down here We're gonna put new brushes springs Pick up shoes brush holders in it And then maybe I'll set up a quick track. We'll run it around the track I'm gonna have to run these brushes in. All right. Let me get you zoomed in here. Okay, so First let's get these tires off here. Yeah, they're pretty crappy. I'll have to get that cleaned up Let's put the old tires Over here. Oh dry cracked We have new tires here As you can see they're white lettered I've got these brushes are tiny guys I'm telling you very very tiny. I got you zoomed in quite a bit I got some alcohol over here. I'm gonna try to put this on here and Get these wiped off get this wheel wiped off here It'll be careful So I don't lose any of these parts So I might Have to clean this wheel up Looks like it was glued at one time a lot of guys will super gloom. So that way the The the wheel doesn't spin inside the tire We used to do that with our RC cars. I Had a pretty kick-ass Monte Carlo Well that little one horsepower engine on it nitro run on nitro methane We used to race in me and a couple other guys We used to go into West Virginia and race them and then we had a track in the garage We would race them around the tracks sometimes They were just too fast to be inside. So we got smaller electric ones for inside So, yeah, I'm gonna go ahead and I'm gonna get this all cleaned off first I almost bought a set of wheels and tires, but I Bought two sets. I should have bought a lot more. I'm gonna order some more stuff because we're gonna need tires on a couple of her dad's cars and I Mean, we're just gonna we're gonna run the heck out of these things. So I Just pull this axle out of here Okay, so yeah, I'm gonna do this off-camera Get that cleaned up. So when we get the tires on, you know, they'll run true Nice and smooth and quiet So let me get this cleaned off first and then we'll get into Rebuilding this motor kind of I'm not putting a new armature in it But I am gonna clean I'm gonna So it's pretty good. It's pretty good. It's pretty good chassis here I'm gonna clean the commutator up on it because you know new brushes you want that commutator to be nice and clean Like I said, and then we'll run it in. That's the fun part. Well to me this is This is actually a fun parts working on these things. So let me um, let me get this cleaned off the best I can and then we'll move on to the motor part. Okay guys, so I've got Got the wheels somewhat cleaned up Think they'll work. I need to get new wheels and axles for these things so first thing we have to do is We'll take this motor up out of here and it just slides right up out Just like that Got our magnets. You don't want to get them mixed up And pull that off. I'm gonna set it down just like that. I want to take a little bit of alcohol Clean the commutator up on it a little bit There's a little There's a little washer right here Doesn't seem to want to come off. So I'm not gonna worry about that right now That looks like that's the best. I'm gonna get that. I don't want to put I mean I've got some super fine sandpaper I could probably use on this so what we're gonna do See that's going to go on like this Just want to go back in there like that now we're going to take These are our brush holders Sorry about the lighting again guys. There's only one way they're going to go in I'm going to take one of these little tiny springs here It's off camera right now. Try not to bend it up Real fiddly. These things are so tiny You know after having audible strokes It's hard to get your hands to work great. I'm just gonna slide it in there like that. I'm gonna stand this up I'm gonna take my brushes And they go in a certain way the flat part goes in and the round part that's going to go up against your commutator It's going to be out That just like that Try to show you this, but I don't know how well I Get this to focus There we go. I'm gonna put this Side that little hole right there. I'm gonna make sure that I got that the right way If not, I'll have to stick something up in there and turn it and this one pushed in by hand. So that's good Now you can see that one looks pretty good inside there Okay, now we're going to do the other side and if you can't put it pushing in with your fingers she's a Paraneet on those pliers or something and push it right in and there it is Now these springs here, so this is the bottom of the car the long side and the short side you want the Okay, it's on there. Whoo There's a long side and the short side you want the long side down Because that's what's going to hold your pickup shoe Put tension on your pickup shoe That's going to go like that same way with the other side Might be able to do this Yeah, that one just fell off. Let's get this other one back in here. I Know you can't see much hang on. I'll show you here in just a second. It's like that Because you pick up shoes are going okay that one went somewhere But your pickup shoes are going to come up in there. Let me see if I can go find that if not I have to come up with another idea. Hang on No, I did not find it This is the next one so I'm going to have to order a couple more of these They're very cheap so Okay, so we're going to take our chassis I'm gonna put this piece back in here that we're going to put our motor Back down in here if you put these magnets in oh if you put these magnets in backwards Or put them in wrong. They're run backwards So you got to be careful with that Let's just go ahead. I don't like taking the magnets out because I Always put them in backwards Go there's got slots they slide into And I forgot to put that brush on or I mean that spring. Okay guys. I got it now This we're going to put underneath here And there's a little tab right up on top there. You'll see it that little black plastic tab It's got to go between it and the brush holder like that. It's going to hook on make sure it's in there Now we can put it up over the There like that make sure your springs in there get a pointer here Make sure that little spring It's right inside there Make sure it does that Do the same thing on this other side now Again They make the double it's like a double spring. It'll help hold your Pickup shoes from one to go side to side. I'll show you that here in a second I don't have one, but I'll show you the difference and what it it prevents from doing So what a double spring does this is just holding it on one side. It keeps it from Keeps them from wanting to do that All right, so that's looking pretty good Okay, guys, I got it back together. I had to take it all back apart again because I got to looking at this other car I can tell this one been apart before because the Because the the brush holders were out and they won't come out unless you take the car apart I was looking at the other one the magnets We're on the wrong side, so it would have ran backwards anyway so I just went ahead and took it all apart and re Changed back around the way they're supposed to be and everything looks pretty good now. So Let's go ahead and put our tires on here nice snug fit got white letters White letter tires. I like them now. This is the one this is has an act or a We all miss them off of the axle now. I've got an Axle over here. I think will work the tires are crap But these time this tires not very good either But I'm gonna try that axle in it, but let's go ahead and put this one back in That side there Pop that in. Okay feels pretty good. I'm gonna pop this axle in. Yeah, this axle It's a little Little tight. It's what I want to do is I'm gonna use my axle and then wheels tires I Have to get a bunch of front tires. I keep forgetting about them and see that one So what I've been doing is having to run I can't get that wheel off of there All right. Well, I Don't know pull that tire off. I'm gonna have to run over rings on these ones There we go All right I'm just gonna put some o-rings on this. I'm just gonna go ahead and order some Tires wheels and axles and stuff feels pretty good. I got something else. I'm gonna do to this Hang on one second. Okay, so I got bullshit I got these little tiny magnets here these neomagnets I'm gonna put them I might have to take that motor cover off Okay, let me go ahead and take this motor cover off of here. Whoa What these do? They're traction magnets And they stick to the bottom of the other magnets on your motor Like that and they help it stay on the track a lot better They're called traction magnets there there are so I think what I'm gonna do Is I'm gonna put a little drop of super glue on the bottom of each one of them Yeah, and then we're gonna get it a Track piece out and I'm gonna make sure it runs before I set up a whole track But let me get a drop of glue on They're holding in there pretty good, but we crash a lot so I'm gonna do that Just so they'll stay in a little bit better Then of course it's got the original magnets there that help out a lot so Let me get that done. I don't know what you're seeing. This is pretty crappy video. I know but all right now Let me get a We get those glued in there and then I'm gonna get a piece of track set up. Okay guys Let's check this out. I oiled it up And if it runs then I'm going to go ahead and make like a circle track and run this motor in and it's running all right, so let me go ahead and Get a track set up. I got to change your battery and then we're going to run this car in By the way, this is the one. I just like the looks of that. I like the paint scheme. This is one. I'm working on so All right, I'll be back right back with you guys. Let me get a quick track setup All right guys, just got a novel track here with some straightaways. I want to run this car See if we can get it broke in is what I'm going to do And it'll keep getting faster and faster Or hopefully So I'm going to keep doing that. It doesn't like to take off on its own Got a kind of nugget. So I'm just going to keep running it. Oh Yeah, it's getting a little faster and I'm going to keep running it until it's running, you know, it works should be All right guys, it's running pretty good now Magnets make a big difference. So there it is Sometimes you still got to give it a little nudge Get it going pretty cool. That's two other cars coming down. It's all backer. Let's get this channel out Then it's all backer channel He's got two cars. He's sending to me One's a quarter bad, but I'm gonna tell you what the other one is that so those should be fun to work on All right guys That's it for now. So Sorry about the chopped-up video, but you know kind of hard to the lighting and stuff. So Yeah See some time to throw those out, but It wouldn't do that before Thank you armature is the greatest in it But it's good enough to practice on like practice the upside down one. This would be our practice car for pretty cool It's getting faster a lot faster than it was All right guys, thanks for watching she bears. I'm at the man legend gone for now. Don't forget to check out Dennis all backer channel and we'll see you guys in the next one. Bye. Bye. Take care All right guys, so I spent some time. I'll put a rubber band around here and just let it run for a while I'm getting faster and faster Finally started flying off the track. So this I can't I can't go to slow with it. It needs to go fast. That's barely As you can see so fast the car we've got Doesn't like to run slow cool
