Dabar got Competition

admin

The Sprout wanted a "Logging" trailer for his little Quad since he watched American Loggers.The base already had the wheels where they are on some scrap that an Art. Dept. left here at the studio so I just needed the Uprights and a tongue. Couple cardboard tubes Aka "Logs" and he's happy- nice to be a kid and be pleased by so littleNot in this pic but I sliced open a couple tennis balls and capped the uprights and then some paint.Little bugger backs a  trailer better than I doEd Conleyhttp://www.screamingbroccoli.com/MM252MM211 (Sold)Passport Plus & Spool gunLincoln SP135 Plus- (Gone to a good home)Klutch 120v Plasma cutterSO 2020 benderBeer in the fridge
Reply:Cool
Reply:Now he needs some good logging boots and maybe a hardhat too!
Reply:Be careful with that trailer and those tubes - next thing ya know, he'll be thinking, "Ooh, I wanna put a tennis ball cannon on here next!!!"  And, like the good dad you are, you'll probably oblige ....Nice work on the trailer, but aren't the wheels on it just a shade on the small side?  Well, I guess for free, ya can't complain ...
Reply:yep.  that is cool, my son would love it.
Reply:Damn Ed, There goes my plans to take over the west coast trailer market, with you building trailers like that I wouldn't stand a chance.Even though we don't have much in the way of a logging industry down here, I'm thinking maybe I'll copy your design (with permission of course) and send you a big fat royalty check for each unit sold using your design. You just opened up a whole new market that I had never thought about.Should I send the checks to you or the youngin, seeing that it was the youngin that started the inspiration for the prototype, I think we should share some of your royalties with him. (just a thought)I am what I am, Deal with it!If necessity is the Mother of Invention, I must be the Father of Desperation!

Reply:I like the protective bolsters.  are they caps or paint?I can just see the next cherry tree being chopped down.  oh the stories he will have when he is older.
Reply:Scott, In the pic that is Orange "Caution-Cable" tape. The next day we painted the trailer and I capped the Tubes with Tennis balls.I usually have a few around as they work great for capping tent stakes and saves the ankles.Ed Conleyhttp://www.screamingbroccoli.com/MM252MM211 (Sold)Passport Plus & Spool gunLincoln SP135 Plus- (Gone to a good home)Klutch 120v Plasma cutterSO 2020 benderBeer in the fridge
