Hi odogg,


Welcome to the forum. For picture posting, check out Steve Tripp's thread explaining how, see below:

http://tnttt.com/viewtopic.php?t=11199

We're a helpful group so any questions, just ask. The only thing we ask is that you share your build pictures with us. Keeps Aunti's bubble oil level.


See you around. :thumbsup:

Welcome to the forum, new members are always greeted with respect, honor and perhaps even a bit of humor. We are a bit off-of-the-wall, and hope you will soon become one of our infamous builders. Of course, I would encourage you to build a Woody, but, what do I know. Nevertheles, take pics as you go along, you'll never get another chance, (until the second build). Ask questions and we'll answer. Enjoy.
:thumbsup: Roly

Hello there Uncle Mike. Have enjoyed scrolling the forum for a few months and finally thought i may as well jump on in with you fine folks here. Lookin forward to many happy hours building camper and friendships! One thing maybe you could share with this (feeling kinda foolish for asking) newbie is how to set/adjust the time/date format for my postings? Or did i miss that somewhere in my startup page?

Go to the top of the page where it says "Profile".

Click on it and down toward the bottom of the page it says " Timezone", it scrolls up and down, and for " Central Time Zone " it should read
" GMT - 6 Hours "

Hey odogg, ok Cowtown Tx, isn't anywhere near Cowhampshire is it? Welcome to the forum. Good luck on your "first" build. Are they still running Trains on steam in TX? Blessings, Walt

Hello spinnernut, to answer a few "?" all at same time, yes am from north of ft.worth and south of denton but west of dallas and east of eagle mountain lake. And yes have met okee julie this past year at the big ole beavers bend camp. You'd think that after sharing a campfire and an adult drink of choice with a group of folks that you'd be remembered. My but how time does fly!!! Can't come out this weekend to the ray roberts as the son has b-day party,but will try for next one( i hope). Hay spinnerknut-FYI-is that ur tear parked out by the small airport north of saginaw,tx.? I thought i passed 1 that had those same polka dots and said something like "camp gotagetusum" or such, and a bunch of campin gear out with it also...would maybe interested in buying a turnkey rig like that! :thinking:
