The bed rails were completed today, the bed's deck will be roughly 15"X9.25" and I'm probably going to make it out of Birch plywood in 1/4" I think. This wood is very hard and should hold up nicely for it's intent.

Decided to take a break from the bed floor after applying some Ebony stain, gotta let it dry anyway for at least 24hrs.
Ben tinkering with the servo winch, I made a spool support with a bearing. I have to complete the winch housing and spool cover yet just thought I'd post this BC I was pretty proud of my Fat Kid Engineering VIDEO; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVo3PpJ8ZuE http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1.../winch1004.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1.../winch1002.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1.../winch1003.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1.../winch1008.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1.../winch1007.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1.../winch1006.jpg |
The winch box is done and installed to the bed floor. Onto the next step which will prob be the Boom.
Looking for opinions; Should I leave the winch box and boom to tarnish naturally or spray is with Black Hammer Paint from the Spray bomb ? http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...inchbox001.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...inchbox003.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...inchbox004.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...inchbox006.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...inchbox008.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...inchbox009.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...inchbox011.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...inchbox014.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...inchbox015.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...inchbox017.jpg |

Nice touch with the rifles in the back. The coneheads just don't do for me though:lol:

This build is getting better and better! Love the gun rack!
I would rip the birch into 3/4"-1" strips to make the bed look more like a deck, but that's just me. In real life you'd never find a sheet of wood that size. Scale it up dude!:yes: |

http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...chassis004.jpg NOTHING is bolted down, I just set the cab and ben on the chassis to see what it looks like and snap a few pics for my thread. Still have lots of wiring to do and TX programming http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...chassis017.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...chassis018.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...chassis019.jpg |
Heres some close ups of the Boom I made and how it's intended to work and store when not in use.
Enjoy the pics. http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...chassis005.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...chassis006.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...chassis007.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...chassis008.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...chassis011.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...chassis012.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...chassis013.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...chassis014.jpg |
Just got done filling the winch spool, It took all 20yards of 100lb Power-Pro I bought, should be plenty ;-)
Also tied up a extra tow rope and and the winches King Kong Hook, Not sure what I'm doing the silver hook yet ? http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...towrope005.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...towrope003.jpg |
