Hey Jono the only thing i'm doing at the moment is the sliders for some people ,http://www.aulro.com/afvb/projects-t...ers-sills.html
Yeah i would love another project but i better look at bulding a garage or atleast a carport..
I wouldn't mind building another camper like the hard floor flip over ones but a heavy duty box trailer with the tent top type would be good to..
Cant weld today it looks like its going to rain. Ahwell i can get the lawn done instead & it mite clear & i can do some welding , I dodn't like getting shocks from welding & having it start to spit...

The only pics I have of my camper are of the time I towed it around Mt Panorama. At the moment it is being used as a 'work table' in the garage and is covered with remote controlled aircraft and bits off the landy - so no chance of any pics anytime soon. If you search for Cub Kamparoo you will find pics of it. Mine differs in that it doesn't have the built in cooker and it doesn't have a winch - I just flip it over. I also have a 'porch' and a full awning for it.

I haven't been to the other site for a while - if you aren't a member of one of the cliques over there you basically get ignored. I can be ignored here just as easily so I don't see the point in going to another site for the same experience.

G'Day Drifter, when you say cliques, I know what you mean and let me say this, I am not a member of any clique and I won't ignore you on any Forum, mate, you're a good bloke and you support Banjo and that's good enough for me. Your input is welcome anytime!!!!

Hey drifter how you been , busy with work..Our old neighbour was into gliders big time he builds his own from scratch someof them are huge..I used to have this little control line plane once you got it started you stood still & went round & round , I don't know how many times i sliced threw a finger trying to start it , You have to put a battery on the glow plug then wind the engine back on a spring & then let go, not to good on the fingers & the only thing i seemed able to do with the damn thing was get it tangled on everything....

Hey Banj, got your TXT last night, but by the time I realised I had a TXT on the phone, I was busy at work, everything is fine mate!!!

Just keeping a close eye on the Freelander, but there is a 12month/20,000K warranty on the Tranny so everything should be OK.!!!

Hey Banj - that other job I told you about stops in a week so I have been looking around to see what's available - pretty much got that sorted - should know in the next week.

The planes are an amusing distraction. I got rid of one recently but still have 5 here - ranging from a 1.3m wingspan ducted fan 'jet' that cruises at about 120k to a 1.8m wingspan Beaver. All are electric - and that can have unwanted repercussions. This is what I managed to do with the Beaver:

That's my right hand
