Have a good day.

chip, If there is any way to get it done, enjoy the spotaneous invitation. If you wait too long, nobody will ask you. Unless you are milking cows , the chores can wait.

Others will understand you enjoyment. I do!! :thumbsup: :applause:

I sure like the shape of that thing. I'm almost temped to completely destroy the Orphan and rebuild it with your shape. Are you doing templates? Think it would look good behind a Honda CRV.

Have a good day.

Hey Chipper, Maybe you should get a hold of some of the Air Chief tyres mentioned elsewhere on the forum. :lol: Always do the spontaneous thing Mate, the chores will always be there tomorrow.

I am a great proponent of dont do today what can be put off till tomorrow,,, maybe its why I cant seem to finish this dang trailer,,,, the spontaneous invitation is all it took to cancel laundry plans and head for da woods,,,
Gage, a compliment on the trailer shape is greatley appreciated,, I spend more time at the rear of the trailer than in the cabin so why not maximize the galley and slope the front a bit more ,, Ill be glad to trace out a paper template or take a good side photograph that you could scale ,, So far it has worked out good,,

Paul them air plane tires just cause too much smoke when ya kick the jacks out from under the tires

Heads - go camping.
Tails - go to the lake for the weekend.
On it's side - stay home and do chores.
I guess the picture tells the story. :thumbsup: :lol:

Chip,

I hate to split hairs, but I heard that a skosh is 1/2.563 of smidgen. If we are going to use technical terms we should use them correctly. Of course if you are referring to the metric skosh, then you are correct.

The tension between what is good enough and what is beyond that creates the space for character to become our work.
