Re: Half-round Dump Box

I don't believe he has built the truck yet but I could be wrong. I will be working on another one very soon and will post pictures. It will be standard size though where as this one was longer.

Re: Half-round Dump Box

I think I might need one as well. One rig is already out the window. I don't want to change the R. It's growing on my more and more as it is driving around my apartment lol

Re: Half-round Dump Box

Here's something else I have had on the back burner for a few weeks. I pulled it out this afternoon to make some progress. I think it will have full length fenders but I just sat these next to it to get an idea of how it was looking.

No you may not...Haha They are made by Cleko for the autobody industry I think. They work awesome so long as you don't overheat them.

Greed:rolleyes::lol: I want to take over the aluminum RC world!NOT! I have been working some long shifts in the sweatshop lately. I've been way behind on things so I need to make up some time. I can't work faster or quality might suffer so working longer is the only option. That and I think this is fun...:D

Re: Half-round Dump Box

Keep it steady Reg and keep it fun thats the good way to make success.
And thanks for a fun day yesterday, Can't behave some days. :eek:

Yes I hope so. I can't say that everyday or project is fun but for the most part I enjoy building stuff for other people. Most guys have given me a general direction to look and let me take it from there and that's pretty cool! I appreciate them having that confidence in me and trusting my judgment. There have been plenty of sleepless nights wondering how in the h3ll I'm going to make something look and function correctly or worrying if the customer will like what they've paid for but that's also part of the excitement I guess. When you achieve those things it makes it all worth while. This has given me the opportunity to build things that I would never build for myself all while making a little bit of money. Of course I want to become more successful at this but I also want to keep it a "fun thing" first and foremost. One of the best parts about this is I get to make other people's visions come to life. How cool is that? Oh, and my commute to work each day isn't too bad either....:cool:

Yesterday was hilarious! It's nice to see that we can all have some light hearted fun with one another without it turning nasty and stupid. If you can't laugh at yourself then you're in trouble. Next time someone else is wearing the yoga pants though.:p
