Haha, it's always a good day if all the RTA gave you was a migrain..lol.. All I usually get is please empty your wallet sir, we would like everything exept for your filthy smokers lungs.. On a side note, I wouldn't mind doing the same thing, with my spare Trak Shak suspension. Maybe one day..

Been toying with different cable rollers, found these on the net.

They fit the bill for what we have in mind...... except the price, just got an email; $800 - phew thats more than I thought.
Talk to the crew tomorrow and see what they think, they are the ones who have to use it.

Enjoying the trips
Made a cable stand that works fine and had some RolaCases in the shed from busier days so got the trailer sorted pretty well now.
Got an engineer making something for my camera so no photo's sorry. (Another DIY coming up)
Had it out on a few jobs and it has been well worth doing.
Bought a brake controller from Tekonsha, a great bit of gear but no room to fit it and me and my lovely lassie in the cab, so it went in the work van.
Today got a redarc with remote control and seperate status light, so they will fit a lot better. And save my knees and shins as well.
Didn't know they made remotes like that, hope it works ok. I need some switch blanks to fit the controls....

$155 delivered on eBay $288 in the local shops, would like to support the locals but 86% or $133 dearer is a bit much.

When I get the camera back I will sort out some piccy's
