The solution to condensation is ventilation. Tom

You could wire a switch in the back that allows you to turn on the head and clearance lights. A manual horn switch would work too. Tom

If it has a plastic coating try using a hot air gun...outside with a fan!

Adding a tarp to a complex shape like that won't be very successful. when you are really going to want a fly...wind and rain and cold...that flat tarp will pop and jump. Leads to wet inside the tent. Without a fitted fly all you have is insect protection. It sure doesn't take much to Google...

Enough salsa or hot sauce lets anything go down! http://www.cholula.com/ Tom

Years ago I bought this book: Supermarket Backpacker by Harriett Barker Its out of print I think but easy to find via used book stores. Lots of great ideas and hints about getting off the shelf food that is cheaper than produced for backpacking meals. Tom

Bear proofing is a challenging engineering concept. Can be done...but how much protection can you build in? Tom

Can you spot/tack the flat stock to the ribs to the frame pieces then use the heat from the spot welds to soften the flatstock and beat it into form? Or..tack and heat with a torch? Tom

Too cool! Here's a cross post that I put up. Look at the rendering of hardshell walls: http://www.tnttt.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=49338

The rear bumper/rack looks so well done! I figured the price would be off the scale. Not so...and look...more pics to perv! http://www.cbioffroadfab.com/store/gallery.php?id=35 Tom

This sounds like a good deal: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sure-power-low-voltage-switch-130512-/250889307420?_trksid=p3284.m263&_trkparms=algo%3DSI%26its%3DI%26itu%3DUCI%252BUA%252BFICS%26otn%3D21%26pmod%3D260969750353%26ps%3D54

Add some clever tent-work to the wings and you'd have a great shelter! It would be easy to zip on the tent part. Tom

They will reinflate...but do the math..the whole compressor in those things, motor and head, will fit in your palm. They may build up pressure but the CFM would barely oxygenate a minnow bucket.

Or...Big Gulp

Your pics of the roll off bed are enticing me to get back into doing treework. Having a truck for work and play was really nice. Tax deductible too. Are you saying that those box units only weigh 600#?! Toys aren't deductible, tools are! Tom

If the battery is charged. My experience with those kits is that the battery doesn't last very long. The compressor is about the same size as an aquarium pump...hardly enough to air up a tire...unless you have lots of time. Check Costco or your local auto parts store. Be sure to buy one that...
