Thank you. I appreciate that. I just try hard and that's all we can do. It's better than $40 nights at the bar. I know cause I've been there..LOL Zim

I had some lights from my old job at autozone, so I used those on the inside. There were 4 and they did a really nice job lighting up the joint. I also put 2 porch lights on each side for dark camp setup's. I turned my attention to the inside and wanted a indoor light switch panel, some...

Now on to the other 5,921 things to attach to it..LOL. Due to a major design fault by me, the back door sucked. Had a gap from the rail to the door edge that I could not cover and be movable so I just sucked it up and delt with the little bit of water and dust. I don't think the dust would ever...

I have thought hard about posting this since I've sold the truck. Almost sad about it but excited for the new build too. So here we go. The camper/topper/cap/shell from hell. LMAO. Started on the shell within a few months of buying the 2019 Tacoma. Loved the truck, hated the driveline. I have...

You could probably do the same thing with 3" x .125" flat bar bent and all the interior corners and perm mounted to each side. Lots of work but, would keep the fiberglass from spreading on the bed rails. Zim

The commercial caps are the best for weight. They are reinforced in and out, and able to carry hundreds of pounds. I love the look, and modeled my cap after them when I built it. Others thing they are ugly. It's whatever you like cause it's your money. I'm going ARE DCU after the first of the...

Great information here. And thank you. You are probably at the max weight but it's a used cap and you understand what the results may be. Perfect. Probably the #1 reason I built my own topper/cap. When I was done, I knew the limitations. Thank you for the straight info. We appreciated it. Zim

Well I'll be dipped. Outstanding research and development Sir. Well played. Zim

I'm game. I'm making a video tomorrow. Will be fun. LMAO Zim

Thank you so much. We saw 4 Eagles at the Current River State Park in Missouri, and all I had was a 135. LOL I'm working hard to get a good lens for next year. Thanks again. Zim

600mm 1.2 LOL Amazing. What lens really. That is money. Zim

Thank you. It's a private foundation close to the house. I'm blessed to have it close. Zim

I don't understand the whole time saving thing. The idea of getting out there is to relax, and enjoy the beauty of out lands. A few minutes to air down will not matter to me. A good air chuck will do fine. Deflates to within .5psi. I've had this on for a few decades, half the cost and can air...

Thanks. It was fun, and I'm getting ready to do it again. Toyota sold, have the F250 now. Shell is for sale, $1000 or scrap, which ever comes first. LOL

I bought my solar kit directly from the source and fab'd up a charging station. (I'm a photographer, videographer, fly drones and other silly crap) At one time I was charging 9 items. I had 8 ports. LOL. It's a lot of fun to build things, and see them in action. If you need some help, let me...

The 5.3 motor is a good base and the truck will survive. (I think there is a song like that) When I built race cars I'd ask the customer where he'd like to be in 5 years with the car or truck. Almost the same thing here. Where do you want to go, how do you plan getting there, and how long do you...

You got a great kid there. I'd be pretty proud. Ya did good. Zim

This came up on my Youtube feed the other day and I was saddened listening to her story. I wanted to pass this on to everyone that may be alone, old (me) or otherwise slightly underweight to fight off an attack, not by a bear, or coyote, but another man, or woman for that matter. We take for...

Beautiful work tho and that's what is important. Thanks for sharing this with us and can't wait for the next post. Zim

What a epic build this is! Jim I see the JD squared bender but do you have a CNC plasma too? Outstanding craftsmanship. Zim EDIT. I bet you wore out the McMaster-Carr phone number on those 10/24 pan heads LOL
