    Wow! And so organized . Your collection in 10 years will rival many who have collected for 30. Verry impressive. I wish mine was half as nice.

    @RafaelBorba-mj2cw 7 лет назад

    What is the material of the model? Iron or aluminum?

    • @skippyfish71
      @skippyfish71  7 лет назад

      Are you asking in general or for a specific car? In general, Diecast cars are made of ZAMAC.
      Zamak (formerly trademarked as ZAMAK and also known as Zamac) is a family of alloys with a base metal of zinc and alloying elements of aluminium, magnesium, and copper. ... The most common zamak alloy is zamak 3. Besides that, zamak 2, zamak 5 and zamak 7 are also commercially used. These alloys are most commonly die cast.

    New subscriber here. Thanks for sharing your awesome collection. Virginia native who relocated to Maryland in 1994. Re-started collecting then, mainly 1:18 and 1:24/1:25 scale. Lately have been collecting Hot Wheels, Matchbox, etc. Nothing expensive though as I love finding the random Flea Market, Yard Sale, & Toy Show items. Thanks again.

    From someone who is indisisive and apprehensive when it comes to the price of those carney cases, I wanted to ask , do you prefer the diagonal or the side to side carney cases. I kind of figured when i order my first one i would probably order the 144 diagonal but idk yet.But hich do u prefer?

    • @skippyfish71
      @skippyfish71  6 лет назад +2

      Diagonals are nice because you get a better angled view of the car, but I wouldn't order them again. Larger/longer cars don't fit. I really like the regular cases without the dividers. They just don't hold as much because they aren't as big as the ones with the dividers. But It's been a while since I've ordered new ones, so I think they offer a lot more options than they used to.

    • @ericmcginnis2097
      @ericmcginnis2097 6 лет назад +1

      Steven Langenfeld Thanks for responding. I had my heart set on the diagonal one myself and so I think the diagonal one is the ticket. I appreciate your response ! I really wanted your oppinion since you have multiple versions which I have to say they look good. You have an impressive collection! Mine are all pretty much tucked away in storage totes and the shopping bags from the stores they came from, they're hanging everywhere in my apt. I do have ar ơở und 300 hanging from nails and two overflowing cardboard hot wheels style boxes like how they're displayed at stores. Just take the big cardboard display mounted to my wall. I'm also building wooden shelves which started with some free lumber that i got. Someone threw out some 1"×3"×8' I cut them in half. I needed 20 total 10 boards per shelf so I purchased more matching sized lumber and then ran threaded rod up each of the ends. Cheap and easy, relatveIy. I decided to build
      two of those. However after assembling the first one, I realized that I realy needed wider boards and thiker threaded rods, so I'm building a third shelf with 10 1"×4" & threaded rod, washers & bolts. Which let to buying a sander, sand paper, stain and a brush. I probably should've just built a wooden version of the carney case but i don't realy have the nessesary tools so threaded rod it is! What gets me is I chose this method thinking It woyld be cheaper but over all i prob couldv'e bought the carney with what i have spent but i would only have one instead of 3 Sorry so long !
