That Tomley's such a trouble maker... Volvo project is awesome, love all the details. They used to be pretty common in the UK, but sadly like all the cool stuff they are almost extinct now. I used to a have a 940 'Wentworth' Estate (2.0 Turbo). Came in handy when my ex wife locked me out the house and threw all my belongings out the window. I got it all in with room for me to sleep in the back at full stretch haha. She was Crazy! (The ex wife, not the Volvo!)
That is a small workshop, but some amazing things come out of it. Chevy did have a V8 diesel back then, it was not very powerful or reliable, so maybe the Canadian army was smart to go with a normal small block engine.
I feel like I just entered Doctor Who's Tardis with that song "it's a whole new world" playing in the background! And as usual, everything on the bench looks amazing!
Credit where credit is due: Matt's ability to turn a tiny workspace into such a vast universe of positivity, experience and community interaction is uncanny. His mellow attitude and film wizardry bring that workspace to a level that feels right at home, it feels like getting an in person update...WEEKLY!
Love your dungeon! Jealous of it. Exactly the kind of hobby room I would like to have, which is hard to realize in a two room apartment in the city. Well well, one day perhaps.
That’s a really cool idea with the radiator on the Volvo, I’d try using the inner fenders from rc4wd for the k10 on the cucv and they’ll work with the engine bay too.
My 82 gmc 2500 was a dark blue interior and truck was painted highway safety orange by an asphalt comp with dark bench seat. No red. It rattled and shook but it was fun to drive.
@@scalebuildersguild Nice,.. there's also Meteor Crater near-ish and I can't remember how far away the petrified forest is, back on the east coast now taking care of family, but spent a bit of time traveling back and forth from socal to that area .. my favorite route came up through the black canyon, cool cliff dwellings but watch out, the sand is soft as there and there's also deep dropoffs in the twisties.
yeah yeah yeah. Jimnymania! Looks like my bench, except Im in franken build land with wpl and mst jimnys. People are saying the wpl jimny is spot on to 1:10 scale. Kinda feel like I need a whole collection of jimny/samurai/sidekicks... tws, element, mst, wpl... some homebrew lj20 with a printed body?!
I think my space is even smaller than your space , you just have way more things going on in yours! 😝 All your projects are looking great ! Just love that Volvo and it’s gimmick and that bushido really caught my attention! Gr eat work on it !
Like many others, I too enjoy the view behind the curtain. I enjoy seeing other people’s work spaces. I like the steaming radiator mod. How long does it run for?
All those stickers should keep any people trying to get a sneak peek at anything away! Would it be possible to post the link to that smoke machine somewhere?
Finally i finished watching every episode of whats on the bench. Finally i get to ask WHY IS THE CUCV STILL NOT FINISHED WHAT THE FRICK. Started watching roughly a month ago and got into it after finding the ep when you got the baja 5b. I think ep 14 or 15. Wish there was more bench content involving that beast. I plan to get my own some day (planning for a month or so from now) and paint it up all Baja Blast soda themed. Yes i want that massive buggy just for that joke. Thats all the reasoning i need imo.
I've seen elevators bigger than that LOL come think of it I've been in bigger phone booths lol how did you even managed to fit all those Traxxas trucks in there that one time 😆😂 lol joking aside thanks for sharing your shop . I didn't think it was that small when you said it was small LOL
I am honestly very, very disappointed. The overall quality of the video is great (as usual), but I am very sad- I was hoping for you to go into more detail about the cookie. Texture, flavour, recipes….? A missed opportunity. Happy Easter though! ❤
@@scalebuildersguild Fair enough. I know I've been instructed to try and keep the front / rear weight balance around 35/65 to 40/60 and I was curious if that would bring too much weight forward. I know I used to struggle a lot more to drift with a 20/80 balance and had to move battery and ESC weight forward more.
So disappointed in the ascent 1/18! Said I wasn’t gonna mess with those tiny screws ever again! And here I am….its just soooooo top heavy! And FYI tho, my scx24 bodies fit it perfect!
I'm not saying that a small space, but I'd have to go outside to change my mind.. 😁 The diesels were actually v8's converted from gas to diesel. Turds.
You outdid yourself on the busted radiator. My wife walked thru the room and said “thats’s a busted radiator” when she saw the video playing on the TV.
Added the vaporizer description from Amazon for you!
That blown/overheating radiator look would be perfect for a Jeep Cherokee scale build

Hang in there. Did you keep the rcs.
I guess she's an ex for a reason!
Thanks for sharing Matt , my set up is in my laundry room. We work with what we have , you have some amazing creations out of such a small space 👍
Very true! I'm grateful to have ANY space! When we lived in our 2 bedroom condo, it was quite tricky!
I like your little cave 👍 kinda like a secret club house 😊
Agreed!
Matt that “busted radiator” is the best!!! You are correct to be chuffed!!! AWESOME!! 👍
Thanks!
Only thing matters, is YOUR get away space and you enjoy it as you please! 👍
Agreed!

Love the Redcat Ascent. Excellent little truck. Definitely worth upgrading and spending time on.
Always love seeing the CUCV, and a Volvo.
I wish I could get a lexan top or a longer interior and cage to the Bushido to be more accurate to a samurai
The interior and drop bed on the bushido makes breaking the no lexan streak worth it methinks, the truck looks great 🤘🍻🤘
Agreed 🤘
I feel like I just entered Doctor Who's Tardis with that song "it's a whole new world" playing in the background! And as usual, everything on the bench looks amazing!
That's a RAD idea.. I love how that could be a good recovery call for my wrecker.
Glad I could help!
Pretty sweet addition to the Volvo!

Maybe one day! Thanks for watching!
Very cool to show us the room!

It’s relaxed Matt? No top button face looks less red 🤣
Radiator looks awesome 👌
Thanks!
Very cool on the broken Rad 💯
Lexan is a good thing!!!!! I like my rigs to hold up against jumps and rolls!
Shoe Goo! Rad radiator dude!
If you happen to be in north scottsdale when your in AZ. I build a 1/24 course for the hobby garage. Scale course with some great lines.
We were in Scottsdale near Taliesin West, but we're back now!
If you're not already going there, you should go to Sedona.. love that place.. but the plains near the Grand Canyon and the Grand Canyon are awesome!
We are going to Sedona!

Nice hobby cockpit! You look good driving SBG😂
Okay, now you need to stick a moose antler in the grille

It's not the size that counts, right? 😂
made me feel claustrophobic for a second or two, i'll try to erase the memory while watching onward
The camera lens makes it look a lot more spacious.
You’re right, it is hella cool
You maximize your work space 💯
I try!
Wicked rad looks just like my real Volvo 😍
The ascent needs an 80’s ford ranger grill and headlights. The grill and headlights on it are too 70’s Datsun yet the body is clearly an 80’s ranger
LOL! Matt you are awesome !!
I didn't notice element released a smaller bushido. I know what my next rc purchase will be, not that I need another one 😂
"Need" is a very fluid term when it comes to RC!
Your space reminds me of Riot in Cell Block Eleven...look it up!
But less RCs! 😂
i think your shop is cool
Like many others, I too enjoy the view behind the curtain. I enjoy seeing other people’s work spaces. I like the steaming radiator mod. How long does it run for?
As long as it has water, easily 10 minutes!
All those stickers should keep any people trying to get a sneak peek at anything away!
Would it be possible to post the link to that smoke machine somewhere?
The link is in the pinned comment. Enjoy!
we had both at the wpg base. gas and diesel, and red and tan seats
Very cool!
Man I had no idea how small your shop was!
Yep! It's tiny!
Thats awesome 👏
Holy crap, I knew you said your was small before, but I didn't realize you meant "Costanza fresh out of the pool" small.
I was in the pool 😂

I know, I know... for some reason I keep procrastinating on the CUCV!
Scale wise lexan has to be closer than anything else to sheet metal.
how are you preventing calcium build up on the atomizer? Distilled water?
Any water will do, it’s not being used so frequently that I would worry about build-up. But, yeah- distilled water would probably help with that!
I dream of having dam/cold dungeon hobby room 😋
Hey! Any r/c area is a great r/c area! Mine is super small too..... and I have to stand up....
Agreed! It's small but mighty!
Can you please provide links to the water vapor products you used?
The link is in the pinned comment. Enjoy!
@@scalebuildersguild Thank you.
I've seen elevators bigger than that LOL come think of it I've been in bigger phone booths lol how did you even managed to fit all those Traxxas trucks in there that one time 😆😂 lol joking aside thanks for sharing your shop . I didn't think it was that small when you said it was small LOL
My wife says size doesn't matter 😂
Are you coming to scale nationals in Leeds again this year ?
There was no announcement for Nationals this year, so we decided to go to Colorado for WE-RC-Rock
I want to convert this to exhaust! Can Elon make a mini flamethrower? That would be awesome!!! Image a flaming traxxas lol.
Looks like that radiator needs replaced that will cost about 600 or I can patch it for yua
😂
Doing that thing.
Thank you for posting that to thingiverse
I haven’t yet but I will!
Need links to the electronics for the vaper.
The link is in the pinned comment. Enjoy!
What’s the water vaper module on Amazon please, would looks so dope on my drift car
The link is in the pinned comment. Enjoy!
Any guesses on how many times the lexan board goes back to 1?!?!?!im sayin 8 times! Lol
Looks cool. 🛻
but where do you add the water is there a tank??
There’s a reservoir that I built that holds the water.
I know you do not care what I think but those glasses are terrible but hey you are here to make videos and you are great at that so have a good one 👍
So many fashion critics! 😂
FYI, the diesel version was also a V8.
Yes, Canadian version remained a V8.
@@scalebuildersguild No, my point is there are diesels and gas versions. They’re both V8s.
@@joshuagregg7579 yep!
If you travel to Tucson check out finger rock trail and gates pass is great too hope to see you it there
Didn't get out to Tucson. Maybe next time!
Vapelord.
Don't compare yourself to tubers from across the pond. Your above them.
Compare myself? Didn’t do that!
Are u in a shed?
Nope! Basement- cold storage room of a 100+year old house.
But, but you are "Imthatguy" 🤷🏽♂️ what that little do-hickey called on Amazon?
Where is the cucv hood liner? 🤷🏽♂️😜

Happy Easter though! ❤
😂 It was a Pilsbury Chocolate chip cookie! No recipe, just pure deliciousness! Happy Easter!
All the years of you saying your shop was small, you weren't kidding. Just goes to show that great things can happen in small spaces.
Best on youtube
Thanks!
Thank you!
The broken radiator is SO COOL!
It's awesome seeing what you do in that size of a workshop.
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing. Always wondered what the trip down there looked like
Damn... that is a small workshop! Wow... have to step outside to change your mind
😂
Would love to see a walk through of how the radiator works in more detail :)
Noted!
"that guy". That's me.
Nice closet your working out of Matt. Keep up the awesome work your doing
Thanks! Will do!
Oh No! A Lexan encounter only one day ago!!!! Please go see a specialist to make sure that you do not have any lasting harm.
😂
I have about that same amount of space but less cool trucks then you have lol
Best SBG intro in like foreva
Thanks!
I wanna buy your Porsche so bad!!
That leaky radiator is rad! Great idea!
Thanks!
That ascent 18 is sooooooooooooooo cute 😊
PS. I’m incredibly jealous of your cookie
Get your own cookie 😂
How much extra weight do you end up adding with the busted rad? Does it throw off the front / rear weight balance of the car?
It’s pretty negligible. I’m also no drift expert, so I don’t really notice much of a difference.
@@scalebuildersguild Fair enough. I know I've been instructed to try and keep the front / rear weight balance around 35/65 to 40/60 and I was curious if that would bring too much weight forward. I know I used to struggle a lot more to drift with a 20/80 balance and had to move battery and ESC weight forward more.
What happened to the IFS FJ Cruiser?
Still working on it!
Damn. That's a small space. And it's awesome.
I'm grateful to have any space! It was tricky to build in our 2 bedroom condo!
Man..86 weeks! That's like 6 and a half years! Great videos! You have given me lots and lots of entertainment!
Thanks for watching and maybe you should check your math 😂
@@scalebuildersguild lol I will! Thanks for always replying to all of us crazy people!
Was so excited when I saw the 01 on the board 👍🏻
Your work space is exactly what I envisioned !!! It’s amazing what you do in there !!!
Thank you! I think a lot of people are very surprised at how tiny it is!
So disappointed in the ascent 1/18! Said I wasn’t gonna mess with those tiny screws ever again! And here I am….its just soooooo top heavy! And FYI tho, my scx24 bodies fit it perfect!

Glad to hear it!
The realistic self steam cleaning Volvo engine bay!
I would totally watch the British Baking Show, RC edition.
...but the most important of all are all your rc builds 💪👍❤️
I see the sign Changed to 1!!
15secs in.
Bro you make that place look big with the cameras.
Cool projects! I like the Volvo 👍🫡
