for someone to bring an oxy-actylene kit may be a tall order (hopefully not). But, is there any reason why it cant be drilled and tapped??Quote:

Ok best I let you all in a little secret that Big Rig has been keeping to himself as I asked of him.........
As of 30/09/11 I no longer work for Kennards Hire. I will be getting 75% of my weekends back to myself. So I will turn up around lunch time on the 8th to help out!

I'm thinking that we are goin to need some sort of shedual as to what work is being done. the servicing, electrical, lockers, sliders some jobs take hours and will have a rig sitting in one area when we want to have a turn around rigs in and out of the workshop so everyone has a go.
Do we have a (so far ) official count of whose coming and what they want done.
Myself-power steer cooling kit 1-1.5 hour max including set up and clean up
Spot on mate - I'll put a schedule together this weekend and post it up - we have about 10 trucks coming, but most are basic maintenance. We should be able to team off as it were and get the bulk done of what's been stated thus far though ...Quote:

Sorry can't get the tig welder down for that weekend we don't have the gas for it atm and the boss is doing his boat sorry.
:hijacked: Although knocking up a few sets of sliders would be fantastic (as I want a set), I do think that kind of thing would suit another day dedicated on them only. We could gauge interest on the weekend, work out the amount of pipe and plate needed and go to town........ . I don't see any reason why we cant do "Dedicated" weekends every now and then E.g. Sliders and bar work, Rear power outlets or wiring lights, Fitting Locker's(group Buy?), suspension lifts, as most of these things need some "Professional" assistance but a basic service and check over day will get us all in and give us a start point to plan from..........Just my thoughts, ill go crawl back under my rock now.
Good thoughts too ...Quote:

Only if I could be in Bathurst that weekend.

If I could, I would. Seems I can't, I won't.
If I did come, all I'd want is for some one to wash my truck and give me an endless supply of drinkies, while I watch them wash my truck.
Not a big ask, is it? Sorry for the hyjack, but you did prompt a pathetic answer. lol
