What Aluminum sheet metal parts do you need???
Hey guys! I'm trying to make a go of this and would like to make some more things for you! What type of metal parts do you need that aren't already being produced?
Thanks for your input! Reg |

Re: What Aluminum sheet metal parts do you need???
Reg, how about a tanker? I can see a fuel truck at the construction site in my back yard looking real good.
Or perhaps a water or milk truck tank, with the squared off back end. Know what I mean? Or a logging bunk and a pup with it? Mario |

Re: What Aluminum sheet metal parts do you need???
Thats a great idea and I woild like to improve on it by saying also a kit to convert a flatbed trailer to reefer trailer. For example the walls and roof. I have a scale 53 foot spread axel flatbed I would love to convert to a reefer trailer. I know anyone building a reefer trailer has a hard time findong the corrigated material to make the trailer sides. What do you say to the trailer kit or conversion kit idea?

Re: What Aluminum sheet metal parts do you need???
Great ideas guys! Keep em comin! I know with some guidance I can make some of this stuff for you!
Could anyone give me some dimensions of the reefer boxes? Height, length and width so that I could try to make the side material? I think I have just the piece in mind... Reg |

Re: What Aluminum sheet metal parts do you need???
Hi Reg, I've been watching your build progress on the dump bed, I must say its the best I've seen yet, very impressive in all aspects.
How about designing a front mount snow blade and attachment frame that would bolt up to the KH frame. It would be a perfect compliment to your dump bed. It could be made out of aluminum and lite enough to be lifted by a small servo. Another idea to go with the heavy snow removal theme would be a drop in salt spreader to fit in your dump bed. That would be quite a challenge I would think. With the snow storms crossing the states and watching all the coverage you could come up with a lot of neat snow removal accessories. Can't wait to see what you come up with next! |

I'd be very interested in some 1.9 wheels that replicate the bd91's you have in your log truck. I still can't get over that build!!!

I wish someone would be able to give you the reefer trailer panel dimensions. I'll try to come up with the measurements myself.

Re: What Aluminum sheet metal parts do you need???
I have no idea if IHB Steve is still making the tool boxes. He would be the guy to talk to though as it's not really something I would try to do at this point.
