Howdy from Texas

Postby jgp123 » Wed Oct 24, 2007 3:54 pm

Just a quick intro. I live in Fort Worth, retired Air Force and I'm currently building a 5X10 Rimple. I'll post pics when I can get my computer to cooperate :(

Welcome to the group. Like Kerry, I'm also retired Air Force (2002). Look forward to seeing how your build comes along.

Looks like you have made some good progress allready. What are you using for a trailer? Did you make it yourself?

Great to have another Texan from the local area... and another AF retiree.
Hope your build goes easier than mine, or maybe I'm just old and tired to go as fast as the young folks. Great people on this forum... anything you want to know is only a key-stroke away.

Welcome...

No, I bought the Carry on trailer that Northern Tools sells. If I were to do it over I would find a different source. Quality is lacking somewhat.
