week end work and tired ramble
I was pretty busy this week end tinkering. I find myself trying to find the simplest way to build things without spending a bunch. Its crazy what things cost. I work long hours so its hard for me to shop anywhere that has normal hours or that are closed weekends or Sundays. That being said I end up at home depot a lot. I had to pay $26 for 5 feet of 2" angle iron. I dont want to tell you what aluminum stock costs. Anyway long story short is I spent less by shopping at Harbor Freight and chopping their stuff up than building it from scratch.
I am experimenting with some hooks I found and mounted on top rail of the trailer. I hang my bike ramps on them after removing the bike, so I can use them as a roof ladder. I also mounted my hilift jack,changed shocks to rancheros and extended a hitch mount luggage carrier to use as a small roof carrier. I added a tongue box also from HF
I am amazed at the forum members here with such creativity and talent and thankyou all for your ideas and pictures. Heres a couple from tonight.
