Well I sat down and thought whats at all construction sits and is missing here ? How about a place to read the news paper ? lol Im also thinking on a construction site office trailer ? "Thumper Dumper "

looks like Travis's bed room to me
great idea to build!!!!!!!!

Re: Thumper Dumper
 

Great idea Rick. As always nice detail, even on a dumper. No weathering effect on this is a good thing:eek::eek::p:)
The construction trailer will look perfect with the dumper next to it:).

Thanks guys....i love doing fun and different stuff like this....I have an old semi trailer (a toy i think ?) that I got at the St.Louis show....im thinking on cutting it down to size and using it for the const. trailer i just need to find some smaller wheels and tires...those trailers had regular car tires on them i think ? but i will also make the wooden steps that led up to the office door of the rig...and windows and what ever else i can think of ?

Re: Thumper Dumper
 

You read my mind, ya gotta have the wooden steps :):cool:

Don't forget the red sign that says " first aid kit inside " :D:p:cool: " visitors report to office, etc.

Up in Canada these trailers are typically called Atco trailers. And yes , they come with more of a camper trailer sized tires. Usually come in up to a 3 axle setup, depending on length .
I like the idea Rick. Custom buildings instead of buying Bruder toy buildings sounds cool.

Keep the pics coming!:D:D

Re: Thumper Dumper
 

When the pump truck is built, you need one of these 2 phrases on the back. 1. "We are #1 in the #2 business." 2. "Caution political promises on board."

I just wonder if the owner of that company did any research on the name before he put that huge "Turd Bugler" on the sides of his trucks ? I know what that Fraze means around my neck of the woods ! lmao
