Glad to be joining. Ive been lurking for a long while and have recently decided to build myself a King based dump. Used to own and operate my own Semi dump which was 93 T800 with a 2008 East 26.5 Genesis tri axle. Im leaning in that direction on my build(this is my second King) but want to go with a W900B day cab as i always wished I had one of those when i was driving.

It wont be anything that hasnt been done before. Ive got loads of questions, and hope to contribute if i can.

I used to be on RCMT YEARS ago. I actually came up with the idea to make and produce wheels adapters to run tmaxx wheels on Clods. I sold quite a few of these sets and a 17mm hex adapter version too(pictured below) to run the Ofna rims on clods as well....This was in 2001..then not too long after that RC4wd flooded the market with wheel adapters and everything else under the sun...I couldnt compete when all my parts where made by hand on a manual lathe and Bridgeport. I enjoyed it and have been fabricating welding, powdercoating, modeling, and machining ever since.

Welcome aboard form another OHioan, I'm about 15 min east of Cleveland. I must say that rotary is pretty killer, I'd have to figure that your truck builds will have to be pretty sweet to after seeing that. I also do trains only on a smaller scale N to be exact, you'll find quite a few of us here from NE Ohio area and all over.

Looking forward to seeing your builds and hopefully some more train builds and vids. There is a section here for them too.
