Thanks!

I lost track of how much is invested.....

The lake is near Potosi MO

I did start finishing that piece of plywood (for an outside table) that I had found in the dumpster. Turned out nice! I am going to trim it out in aluminum

I am using a patio security bar for a locking adjustable leg.

A couple door latches to secure the backside of the table to the camper.

YA forgot abot that...thanks man!

Pretty much finished up my little table tonight...I think I will weld a small tab with a pin to hold the leg actually up against the bottom of the frame on the camper. It seems vulnerable to being kicked (probably by me). You can see the (patio security bar) I used for the leg...folds up kinda for storage..

Like I said before..I aint no woodworker but it turned out ok...I think

And the door latches that hold it on the camper..very secure...

(pardon my garage mess!)

Sell the camper?

I will be one day (hopefully within the next few years at least)

I want a smaller pop up I can turn sideways on a trailer and pull my rig on too

Thanks I appreciate all the compliments...I never really thought I would ever be doing anything like this!

Yea, when you get ready to sell, this is something I'd be interested in assuming I'm not in Timbuktu or something...

I saw the Xtreme4x4 build of the trailer with a camper on it. Was really sweet. You'd have to find a pretty narrow camper. Maybe 8 feet wide???

Table looks good bro!

I like the pin latch idea for attaching to the trailer. I did something similar for one of the lattice panels on my gazebo for my hot tub.

He don't hardly use it anymore....Heck he don't even go 4wheeling anymore. He owns a restaurant now that takes about 60-70 hours a week of his time.

I was wondering where he was. $I\'m Down$

At least he has a steady gig.

DTB come back, we all miss you! lol

Rocksurfer · « **Reply #205 on:** May 02, 2011, 04:44:40 AM »

He still sneaks in here and there but since I have a keen insight on running a restaurant I can remember not having very much time for anything else and I was working for a corporate chain so the stress is even more for him.
