    Mobile Base Camp Family Camper

    YOu've built what I've been thinking about as a tray-top/slide on unit. Very well done. Did I miss the weight while reading the thread? In mine I'd save a bit of weight since I don't need tongue/axles and probably could build with a lighter base frame since it would be on top a flatbed. Tom

    Need a new pocket camera

    I had a couple of Canon PS's and liked them a lot. Now I have a Nikon S8200. It is pocket size because the lens retracts flush with the body. the selling point for me~~~15x zoom through the lens!!! And micro-macro so you can shoot large and small. Costco sells them at a good price. The...
