What did you do today?

Did some more work. Welded on some 1×1 sqare tube, and I contoured it to fit to the frame. This is in support of the giant tv that'll be hanging off the front. I'm going to add 2 more and a couple of cross braces

Nice build. I did this enclosed trailer for my crawler back in 2019-2020. I ended up selling it just a couple trips after I finished the build due to back troubles (didn't want it to sit for 1.5yrs while I was having surgery and recovering).

Goro, at my rate, hell, lol. Staying close by for my childrens sake, for now, but, Texas is the ultimate destination. I'm a Disabled veteran, and that state is so much cheaper to live in and has so much more to offer than California does for me. Cost of property alone!

Did some more work on the trailer.

Woke up an hour after I shut off my alarm.
Ran outside to let out and feed the birds. They were eager to get out of the coups already. heh.


That will conclude this emergency broadcast message. lollol.
 
Had to get this guy out, it's been a while. It's the rig that got me back into RC when I was bored during covid.
Redcat Shredder 1/6 scale(?) 4s brushless, it's as fast as I have room to run it and has good brakes!
I've beat this thing for 4 years and 2 sets of batteries and never a breakdown!
Last fall I thought I broke it doing backflips and barrel rolls when I lost steering. looked like a busted bellcrank, but when I tore it down I only found a screw and nut missing! And found the missing hardware rolling around the chassis tub!
Anyways, the Shredder still does!
 
Started cleaning out my stepdaughter's bedroom. She moved out and, of course, left her room the hell-hole it has always been. :confused:

Made a Guinness Ground Beef Pie for dinner.

When the wind finally stopped blowing, I got to play outside for a bit.

Got the last of my things (other than shop vac, and some insulation) out of my garage, "ex's house". Got a few 4 and 5 letter words to describe her, you know!? and just packed it into the trailer.

Funck, I'm way overweight, I believe!? I don't even have the car (1:1) in there, yet, WONT even fit! just toys, tools and I have an inch of suspension travel left before the bump stop.

Still lots of shuffling to do to make things fit.

Goro, you need another Tundra body!
lol

However, this is on a regular hitch, as the weight distribution hitch from the old travel trailer is in the trailer.
Or i may have to backwards the racecar into the trailer to distribute the weight better. We'll 👀.

Good thing I worked for a transportation outfit that has the ability to weigh and balance my load for me. I'll travel there and weigh my tongue weight tomorrow's and each axle weight too!

Goro, yes, thats an offer, if interested, 😄?!, lol

"So this happened as I was taking the trailer to the storage". You know, good old doofus, Me pulling up to the Military base, realizing I need my wallet. I'm patting down my pants and jacket to no avail. Oh, yeah top drawer of the tool chest!!!!!@@!!!!!, behind the truck, in the trailer, NOPE, it's still at fffffffuc... home, the.place I'm staying......arrrrrrrr

I didn't lock the drawers, doh Resting on a 500 Duckett leather chair. TV is still in one piece, so....... I was able to push the upper drawers back in all at once, tilting the whole shebang. That bithc is "heavy" ,and from what I can tell the bottom drawer is possibly good, but the one side slides is more than likely toast and one side the two sliders are completely pretzels like, fukct. Fun night
