The last project

[TomS]

By the time I finish building my trailer, I'll be ready to build one of these

We need to determine proper axle placement. Will you use propane or charcoal? 12 volt and 110 or just solar?
We gotta determine all of thse factors before you build

Tom,
Are you going to pass those plans on, or take 'em with you?

Tom,

How big of an air conditioner you think you'll need?

Scott F.

Doesn't that depend on where he goes up or down on the BTU's required, I would get one with a digital thermostat with remote control regardless

I think maybe I'll build one of those to use for the bed in my spare bedroom. Should cut down on the unwanted house guests I'll bet.

HAHAHAA Make one 4x8 and dress it up as a full size 'bed' in the guest room, don't show them what it is till the next morning -- that will be how to get the houseguests to leave on time!!!!

Doesn't look like there'll be enough room for a galley.

Just to be sure to wake them in the morning.

No galley. But, it's just the right size for a "cold one".


Oh, I slay me

Dear Tom,

The Sisters of Mercy did something to your mind.

Will they give us a deal on two? (Plus, I don't even need a full-size one. And slightly used is okay.) The most ironic thing is, it looks REAL relaxing, like it's just inviting us in there for a nap!

True story, and as the Forum Storyteller, I'm allowed to digress:

Don't remember exactly where I heard it, saw it, but it was on TV like 20 years ago. A guy threw a "coffin building" party and invited all of his family and friends to his house for a real blowout bash. He spared no barbecue expense, took a ton of photos, and in-between all of the food and booze, he directed the building of his own coffin.

He wasn't ill or anything, but a lot of the folks there thought that must surely be the case. His rationale?

Well, he took all of those great photos, and shellacked them (remember shellac? spelling?) to the outside of his coffin. And he said:

"When I die, I want everyone at my funeral to have a smile on their face, looking at my coffin with all of those wonderful photos, remembering what a great day we all had together. What a great life it was for me."

I ain't sentimental, but I never forgot it.

No. I've always been slightly demented.
