Well where is the progress report [emoji1]

We ended up ordering 2 more of these sofa/couch. I will post up some photos when they arrive and the fun of fitting them starts. Since both were special orders it has taken over a month (Christmas was in the way) for them to start building them. Ordered 1st one in December and the 2nd on in...

I have had hit and miss success with the Harbor Fright jacks. Make sure you give them a good workout as soon as you get home. Then keep taking them back until you get a good one. Once you get a good one I have never had any problems. As for which one. I have both. But that is based on the...

It came with new foam and the covers. I will take some photos today when I do the change over. Hopefully with it all being new it should fit without paracord.

Here is another teaser. Now all I need is for it to stop raining. This is Phoenix I shouldn't have to put up with rain.

We have both sizes. Small one for the missus and I. Big one when we go in a group or will be camping somewhere social. Apart from the savings in fuel the biggest thing for us is being able to have a decent meal with dubious quality meats. These things will come close to tenderizing a rock...

Another weekend bump. Let me know if there is any more photos needed.

Obviously "chunder up"means something different in America to Australia. Chunder means to be sick, it originates from old seafareing days when sailers would get seasick and stick their head out of the porthole in their cabin. As they did this they would shout "Watch Under" to warn people in...

OK where is the photos of riding the KLR in the snow. :roost:

Bump for the New Year.

Yeah I figured Old Yella was way too close to being finished to be one of my projects. [emoji848] But this one checked a few boxes for the long run and it will be a challenge.

Hey mate great report. And thanks for the kind words. Payment as agreed will be in Mexican beer somewhere in Baja [emoji1]

Here is a summary video of the interior. Poorly taken by someone that needs to get his 9 year old grand daughter to give him tips on how to use a video camera [emoji1] https://vimeo.com/197837877 And another one with the details of the bunk bed/ storage. https://vimeo.com/197837981 Sorry I...

Hmm cannot even claim this mistake on the difference between Australian English and American English for this Freudian slip. [emoji33] Yep I am fine with the 35 liter "Pelican".

I'll take the 35 liter Yeti. PM inbound.

3 liter turbo with those tires! Unless they have regeared that thing is going to be a dog. And I would be thinking that a shortened frame is not the best thing to build a camper on. But it would be a cool chase rig or support vehicle for motorcycle tours.

I have and use a couple of HF air/hydraulic jacks. I find it a lot safer to have the control out from under the vehicle and would recommend using them from that perspective alone. For blocks. Head to the local metal supply house. The one that does industrial stuff. I picked up a heap of end...

Still finishing off some of the projects that were on the go before we decided to sell it. We were using South African ammo boxes for our clothes which worked well enough especially for carrying back and forward to the truck. But they were a bit of a PITA to get the gear out of them with the...

Looks like we can fit a 68" long x 50 wide sleeper sofa in the rear of the cab.

Just worked out my time is worth $350 per hour plus freight. Pulled the dash cluster that didn't have the digital display working. A bit of wrangling later I now have a fully working dash cluster. Cheapest replacement I could find was $350 plus freight. Hence my inflated calculation of my worth...
