About this model

This is a 1/28 car balancer. It simply uses toothpicks to hang the car freely, which can determine the car's left/ right weight. The toothpick holes are 2.5mm which is just enough for it to move freely and stay tight at the same time. I glued my toothpick mounts to a Lego platform but anything works. Just make sure the mounts don't bow inwards due to the car's weight. Works with the GL Racing GLA and the Atomic BZ.
