DIY Star Wars Podracer from Household Junk :: Scratch-building a desert speeder with a Rodian pilot

I'm new to scratch building but loving every minute of it so far! In this first video I make a scratch-built podracer from old plastic bottles, guitar string, a coat hanger, clay, and even a Tic-Tac container. The energy binders also light up, which is kinda neat! I was inspired by other builders here on YouTube, particularly these guys here: Boylei Hobby Time:    / boyleihobbytime   Studson Studio:    / @studsonstudio   So thank you very much for the inspiration and building tips! Can't wait for my next one! And in case you want to drop by an say hi, you can find me on Instagram here: instagram.com/gameyybuilds Thanks for watching!
