I doubt that you really care what this transportation device is called as long as it satisfactorily accomplishes its duties. There are several purpose built pieces of luggage with shoulder straps for carrying your laptop. I happen to use one built by Targus for 17" laptops. I call it a...
Puffin Pad
Not sure if you can still get them but I use a Puffin Pad. Its a foam block about 4"X4"X6" that fits over the partially rolled down car window. To be fair, it is a rest, not a mount. It is super simple, small and requires about 1 second to set up. It works like a champ. I am...
Sounds like something I may be interested in. I have been contemplating mounting a new 2M in the rig since my son now seems to be taking an interest in Amatuer radio...I will probably pass on my VX-170 as incentive for him. I like the sound of your concept but would like to see a CAD or...
It is fairly close to me. I can run over and pick it up for you? I will keep it in my garage for you and keep things limber with a few local rides weekly. I will even take it on a week long trip this summer if you like. Just send monies in the sum of purchase price and cost of registration...
You don't see too many DR800s in the US. If it weren't for the ADV forum, I may not of even heard of them. I've never ridden one or known anyone who owned one. Not affiliated but thought you guys would want to take a look or have the opportunity to own one...
WOW! :Wow1: A TF-1 light cart, very cool. I haven't seen one in 15 years. What a great re-purpose. Watch for cracks...when TF-1s ran, they shook and rattled like nothing I have ever seen. They had the the most out of balance diesel Onan ever made. Great work on the TF-1, I'll be watching...
Good question. I won't be contrasting the 4ga wiring included with the M8000 against 2ga, 0ga or 00ga in a table or quote Ohms Law but I will tell you, I did upgrade wiring when installing my M8000. Upgrading to 0ga gave me much heavier connectors with more surface area. Since integrity at...
I have had great results with Canon T3i DSLR body, Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM prime lens and RODE Videomic Pro on a sturdy tripod with smooth head. That whole set up can had for under $1000 works well in the outdoors, on scene interviews or in studio projects. Please take a look on Youtube, Vimeo...
As badly as I want to see (in exhausting detail) photographs of the finished product, I am very sad that you're nearing the end of this build. Paul your work and updates have been wonderful. Mike thanks for commissioning and sharing this piece of art.
I don't really think the model year makes a world of difference. Get one you like (cab & bed) in the best condition available. TRDs are nice but command more money. Make sure your brakes, tires and shocks are in good condition and you're done. You don't need much for accessories, they're...
Compass and Patriot are NOT my cup of tea but they are not symbols of evil to me either. A Compass would fulfill all my travel needs. I love to travel and I love to camp but to be perfectly honest with you I rarely engage the transfer case when traveling or camping. I also like to "trail...
