Another thankful new member

Hello from south Georgia. I have enjoyed this site for some time. Thanks.

I am building a 4x8 teardrop on a PWC frame and its going very slow. I am not using any plans.

I also just purchased a 12x7 Diamond cargo trailer which I hope to convert into a modular camper and a cargo hauler.

I have gotten many ideas from this site. Thanks

Richard

I will as soon as I can.
I've read the how to resize pictures but I don't know what type of system I'm running :lol: I know that's terrible.
My computer help is coming home tomorrow night and he'll show me how to do it.
Thanks

If you're using Windows, you can use MS Paint to resize or crop pictures. I believe it is a standard feature with Windows operating systems. So easy, even I can use it. I'm a miserable failure at using Google Sketchup though.
