Re: a few projects

I like the mad-max bumper.. Was it much trouble to wrap the flatbar around the ends?
And the roller door idea is pretty good... You could store stuff outside to make more room for junk inside the shop.

Nice looking work, I really like the roll door cabinet and the swing hoist in the shop picture.

Those "Road Trains" are quite a sight.....We piggy-back a couple of trailers here ...down under they can string together 10-15 trailers.

Re: a few projects

I know they were running three trailer road trains in Nevada for a while - my uncle drove one. Don't know if they're still doing it, but I'd like to see one of the Aussie ones .... That is one awesome bumper! Brainfarth said it best: "Mad Max." Now I'm waiting on seeing the armor plating for the truck ... Hmmm ... can you register a vehicle with armor plating?....

Re: a few projects

I've always been a fan of wello's work and it's clear to see his quality workmanship is just as good as it always was. I really enjoy seeing this stuff and it keeps me checking back here because of it. Great work Wello!

Re: a few projects

What's the purpose of the windshield screen on the Hino? We use bugshields here but I think that's the first screen I've ever seen.
I love the dolly, looks very good, and the bullbar is great too. Actually, I didn't see anything bad, it's all good!
