Re: LilGiantsConstrCo

She looks a bit like a really old horse in that one picture.lol Shame to ruin the paint with more welding but an easy fix with an added brace I'm guessing.

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo

The trailer is turning out great Joe. Yes the show is on July 15-16 I believe. I may only attend on Saturday this year but we'll see how things are going in the shop.

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo

Looking good Joe. Most people don't realize how much material goes into building this stuff, especially any type of trailer! Are you coming out here in July?

Re: LilGiantsConstrCO

I wonder if it would be better to operate them like a screw? Maybe two sphere shapes spinning opposing each other like a twin screw on a boat. One motor per sphere or a gearbox between the two? At...

Re: LilGiantsConstrCO

I'm glad to see you decided to take this on yourself Joe! It looks like it will work awesome in the soil you have there. Better put an extra layer of safety glass on the 850's windshield though:cool:.

Re: LilGiantsConstrCO

Well that explains the "headstone" thing.lol It just seemed strange that it would naturally come to rest on edge under a couple feet of dirt. Mystery solved! I can sleep easy now.:rolleyes::lol:

Re: LilGiantsConstrCO

Haha, it either sounds like an ill version of my KW or someone was running a chainsaw in your basement.lol

Those belly dumps are cool. It's nice to see the GL and pup get some love too!

Thanks...

Re: LilGiantsConstrCO

Joe I have a question for you.I know it's farmland so the soil is very good but I hardly ever see rock in the dirt you dig. How far down can you dig there before you hit a lot of rock or hardpan?...

Re: LilGiantsConstrCO

Looking good Joe. I use up all my patience in the shop. I don't have any left sometimes to use on the RC park so I use a shovel instead of my excavator.lol I admire your dedication to doing all this...

Re: LilGiantsConstrCO

I am assuming you bought the Diversion 180? I started out with a Diversion 165 and it was/is a great little welder. The 180 comes with a foot pedal and a few other options over the 165 so I think it...

Re: LilGiantsConstrCO

You've been busy Joe! Your shop is coming along really nice and I am envious of all that space! So what welder did you buy? Is it a straight up TIG or ???

I can't wait to see you weld up some cool...

Re: LilGiantsConstrCO

It's 28x40. I started planing for it in late 09 and had it finished just before summer of 2010. I did most of the work by myself and as money came in from work so it took about 6 months to complete....

Re: Hauling Dirt out of my basement (present day)

Thanks Joe, I have been running a 2x12 on the swing of my Volvo and it worked great until I made a stupid mistake and hooked the battery up backwards while I wasn't paying attention. Fried the 2x12...

Re: Hauling Dirt out of my basement (present day)

I thought I would see what kind of weight could be put on these homemade foams. I put a 40lbs battery in the back of my R18 for a combined weight on the rear axle of 50lbs. I don't know how much more...

Re: Hauling Dirt out of my basement (present day)

If I lived closer I would be there for sure to help out Joe. I'd probably replace the R18 with a Terex Titan though which may not be a bad idea anyway...:D.
