I did something like that years ago 1/8 drill bit in to my index finger just behind the nails dead center of finger,all the way bone everything. Oh I forgot to mention a NON Reversable drill had to start it up to remove it, did not feel good.
Saturday folded my left thumb nail back ripping it loose from the nail bed, storms almost blow the camper over and the power is out for hours on end.

Check out the flesh in that drill bit.

Wednesday and Thursday internet was out. I have had a bad run of luck this week but I still managed to get a few things done. I installed the wheel wells and I was finishing up framing the inner covers when I sent the drill through my finger. I went and ordered the siding, roof and vents yesterday.

Just returned from an 11 day trip with the big trailer. One of the guys from work and I took it to a flea market about 140 miles from the house. It rained and wind blew gusts up to 60mph for 8 of the 10 days and all but 2 of the nights. Everything out under the awning got wet or blown off the table so many times despite tarps and plastic covering it. Inside the trailer was a different story, nice and dry and toasty warm I even had to crack the vents and turn on the fans a few evenings. The trailer worked great and served us well I took all my regular camping gear and used the camp stove several times we used aquatainers to carry the water for dishes and coffee. The rented space included electric and they provided wash houses I particularly enjoyed the showers, walking to the bathroom in the middle of the night not so much. I Was in my favorite part of Indian between Attica (the badlands) and Turkey Run State Park during the Fall Colors it was loads of fun.

I took the little trailer out today so I could have the inverter and batteries with me when I went to look at a co workers 1998 not so Grand Cherokee that I towed off the road a few weeks back. Well we reinstalled the battery and hooked the drive shaft back up brought the Cherokee back to my house. And found out the front pinion seal and bearing were shot. So we removed the axel and will be re installing one tomorrow if the junk yard has a match.

I have been out all Summer

My small trailer is a tool box.

I built a pony engine for my Grandfathers Buzzsaw.

The big trailer has been used as a camper a few times

and I have logged a few miles with the tow dolly this year.

Love the buzz saw. Made when men were men and OSHA was not around.
Trailers look good. How is the flea market business?

I have the big trailer at a show this weekend and am staying overnight. Business is pretty good and I am loving the Steam and Classic tractor show.

The jeep trailer spends more time behind the GMC these days. I took it to my aunts house for the summer project trip to build Doll beds I shoved all my Ryobi tools and First-Up in it.

Nice scores.

Thinking about picking up a used Suzuki SX4 wagon and of course it would need a matching trailer.
These with matching wheels would fit the bill.
