Those trailers are looking good. [thumbzup]

That does not sound like an everyday kind of item.

Yeah, but the "bone structure" is good. Sure hope you'll tackle a restoration and keep us posted with pictures. There's life in her yet; what a beauty! :naner:

I tell you what, if I had myself a metalworking shop with a milling machine like THAT, i think I'd be thinking in (heavy) steel for every problem I could find! That is one fine looking set-up. [thumbzup]

It's hard (impossible) to tell: - Sunrise? - or, Sunset?

I love to hear every story I can get. My mother was a French war bride (my father met her on his way into Germany, while on liberty in Paris). She had a story about a friend who worked on the French railroads during the war. She said nobody knew here (in the U.S.) how dangerous those jobs were...

No one I know about is holding a stop-watch to your progress. I agree with gimpyrobb. And that is some beautiful work you have put together there. Heavy gauge stuff and it all looks terrific. I sure don't have the know-how to tackle this kind of thing, but I wish I did. Thanks for the...

You sure do have a LOT of tow bars!

How's it look!?

Ohhh; THAT Henny Youngman! I figured there was a good story here. That's great!! What a hoot!

That is a great handle, and I'm figuring there's a story there. Who (and what ) are the Mowrons!?

This has been terrific to see all the recent videos of equipment here, and particular thanks are due to GoldComet6 and Carlo for all their good postings. [thumbzup] I feel like we're hijacking USSR's thread here though, by substituting ourselves for him. The world is a complicated place, and...

And I picked up "stowing gear" from the Navy. Momma and both daughters absolutely hate me for the number of times I mention putting things where they belong. I mean this house is swimming in shoes; what's that all about!? Anyway, you're a good man to save people from re-inventing the wheel. :beer:

This is a good post. Thanks for the advice. I started using thread lock (the blue formula) as a matter of course a couple years back on almost anything I bolt up. The cost is almost nothing (cheaper than a split lock-washer), and I figure there's nothing to lose if you use it, but MIGHT be...

And here's a variety that come a lot less expensive than that first system...

Have you seen these? The pitchman (see video) says they will "prevent" people getting hit by traffic, but of course that's not true. http://aervoe.com/paints_coatings/Super-Road-Flare-Kit-with-Red-LEDs-4-pack.html

Yeah, I agree with you there, plowboy, 39mm x 89mm IS silly. But anybody will tell you that no 2x4 is actually 2x4 (closer to 1-1/2' x 3-1/2"), and "2x4" is only the nominal dimension (and not the actual milled dimension). So, a nominal 2x4 in metric would be 50mm x 100mm (+/-), and THAT seems...

Wow. That's a very cool spot. Is it part of a regular trail of some kind?

That electric carving knife worked like a charm on the foam cut-out; who'd have "thunk" it!? [thumbzup]

Wow. You really got your act together, GUNNUT; that's a great idea. Did you ever find out of there was a sticky about "How To Stage a Rally: Best Methods" kind-of-thing?
