    New Tripolina Chair update

    We have chairs left... but sales have been brisk. We appreciate everyone who has called and e-mailed. It has been pretty frantic with a huge container of tents arriving today, the new chair announcement, and getting ready for Expo. Thanks to everyone!

    Roof top tent ?'s

    One consideration when using a gutter mounted rack system - the feet of the gutter mounts, under heavy use - may crack the gutter caulking and allow A and B pillar leaks. I recommend that you pay attention for the placement of the rack foot in the gutter. Pull the foot to the outer edge inside...

    New Tripolina Chair update

    zThe bottom of the 'bucket' is 14" from the ground surface. Depending on your build and height you should be able to work at a table up to about 30" high. If people like the chairs, we'll think about other items - stools and tables, etc.

    Sojourn and rsbones: We will e-mail everyone on the list when we are ready for orders. I expect that will be by the end of next week. Received final production sample on slings and bags today and they look awesome. Waiting for the balance to be shipped and for a few minor items. Rich - you're...

    New Tripolina Chair update

    We are currently assembling chair frames. We are awaiting delivery of seat slings and carry bags from Stitchtech in LA. I am confident we'll have it all together in a couple weeks. It has been a long road to finally get these perfected and into production. See you at Expo!

    Toyo M-55

    I have been running M55s on my 80 series Landcruiser (255/85 R16) and my F350 (285.75 R16). I have tried a lot of tires over the years - Michelin, Goodyear, Goodrich... all the way back to Gates Commandos on my first FJ40 Landruiser. I like the M55s on and off the road. The mileage on my LC is...

    Roof Top Tent Question.

    Look into 18 oz. vinyl coated polyester - the stuff they make truck tarps from. A maker of boat covers ought to be able to whip one up for you without a lot of trouble.

    Camp Table

    I like the Meville and Moon table. A table should be big enough, but not too big. Should fold up small. So, yeah, I have been thinking about tables.

    New Tripolina Chair update

    We expect to have them ready before Expo and will have them on sale there. All parts are in house or at Stitchtech in LA. We are actually building frames and waiting for the chair slings and bags to be finished. Should not be too long before we can take (and fill) orders.

    New Tripolina Chair update

    Really don't have a maximum weight rating at this time. They are hell for stout - 1/4" stainless rivets, .064" stainless brackets, frame dimensions beefed up, and we are adding stainless cable stay to front and rear legs below the X bracket. I think anybody that could fit in the chair would be...

    Smooth leather desert boots - recommendations?

    Looking to get a pair soon. Any suggestions other than the obvious Clarke's?

    Do you leave your RTT mounted?

    Miz Lemon, From what I can see of it, I like your truck. Do you need ladder wax or already have some? :wings:

    New Tripolina Chair update

    We are building chair frames. Waiting on fabric (seat and carry bag) fabrication - lots of small parts (snaps, glide slides, grommets, etc.) on the way. Still on schedule to have finished chairs before Expo.
