Dr. Oogan is a comical caricature of a "slot car scientist". He originated from a nickname given to me years ago by a friend while watching me experiment with resin casting. As a hobbyist, I enjoy sharing ideas, photos, and the creations I am able to custom make & reproduce in order to help promote the model motoring hobby.
Since 2008 I have been helping racers and collectors alike by providing precision USA made quality springs for T-Jet & AFX slot cars. Get a prescription for speed and experience the difference!
Making silicone molds & resin casting thermoset polymers is a process I use to reproduce some hard to find parts. I also use this method to make my own custom slot car bodies.
Having the need to replace missing or worn tires for some of the more obscure slot cars led me to making reproduction tires to help keep the wheels turning.
I've always enjoyed model railroading and exploring all the interesting miniature details that are semblances of real life. I look at model motoring the same way when building a new track or diorama.
Making large quantities of precision parts normally involves the use of programmable machine tools. As with my Dr. Oogan Springs, I do occasionally make other items for the hobby using such equipment & processes.
