Our trucks have an air compressor. I can hook up an air line.

 

[gungearz]

That sounds like a plan... We'll pop the lid off the port-o-let, chaulk the seems, then fill it up with water and hoist him up with his winch in the shoe tree, then dunk him in the day before they come out to clean the crapper..

 

[gungearz]

does anyone have a kid count yet...? My kids want to do activities such as games and maybe arts and crafts for all of our little soldiers... Were also bringing all the bikes this time....

 

[Vondy]

I will have at least one, my 9 year old boy. Maybe my 4 yr old boy as well......maybe. He is a handfull!!

 

[gungearz]

We will be bringing our 15 year old girl, 13 year old boy, 12 year old girl, and 9 year old boy this time... Our litlle one (3 years old girl) will be staying at the inlaws all week. She's double trouble also...

Any body bringing a shower? Dont know if we will have a shower trailer this year.

Vondy, How is the truck coming along?

He was welding on his own this week. He said they were strong enough to lift the cab up with, so he should be doing good.

Long pins?? I have a nail gun. That is where the real fun comes from.

 

[eagle4g63]

Got one of those too.........well actually being a wood butcher I have several of them.......but one that is cordless(no air hose) so don't have to stay close to the compressor!!!!

 

[eagle4g63]

I do have to say though, with the under dash hook up.............drive by nailing is kind of fun..........wrong.........but fun!!!!

Re: 2013 Haspin, June 13th-16th

Yes it is

 

[gungearz]

Ok, ok ok.... I give up. Once I get a nail that shoots railroad spikes ill be back in. Ya know eagle4g63... Those spikes that are as tall as me.... 8" or so... And sparky. If we don't have a shower trailer there this year... Will there be a way we can get pressurized water...? The reason I ask... Is because one of the activities the kids were talking about were water balloon fights.

 

[Durango_USMC]

I wonder if you could fill it from the water buffalo... You can usually get decent pressure if the tank is at least 2' off the ground. Could always put a 275 gal tote in the back of one of the cargo trucks with a short hose and you should get enough pressure to fill a water balloon if I remember correctly based on gravity and water weight.

 

[gungearz]

Perfect... Good idea durango. We should be able to get 3-4 lbs of pressure from it to fill those tiny balloons. Does it have a pump to get water back in it from the lake...? Who wants to go tubing this year...? Ill bring some tubes to go out on the river....

 

[Durango_USMC]

I've got no clue sir, I don't own a water buffalo or a 275 gal tote, but I did sleep in a holiday inn express last night. Ok no I didn't, I tried adjusting the parking brake on the M1008 and found out my jack is DOA... so off to walmart for a new jack or maybe some hydrolic fluid and hope it brings my jack back to life.
