In this video I showcase my totally custom Volksrod build using a Hotwheels ratrod VW beetle as a base, and fabricating a custom chassis from scratch using brass. Almost everything is built from scratch using different alloys, including the engine with working components!

Thanks for the positivity. Actually I do suffer from hand tremors and peripheral neuropathy and at time it can be quite bad. Some medications help, but when I don't post for a while that's usually why. I just do what I can when I can, and usually over do it when I feel good lol.

The way you're progressing you'll have the pistons going up and down!!! Absolutely amazing and inspirational. I could never achieve the level of detailed engineering and finese. Have you ever considered taking casts or 3d models of your designs and selling them? I realise that they're all made individually but there must be some engine designs etc. that you could sell. Especially your increbible Alluminium wheels but in plastic (there are some decent chroming paints out there) so we can all benefit from yourr skills. I'm in awe.
