How should I go about making this happen? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razors Edge ★ Posted September 21, 2020 Share #3 Posted September 21, 2020 I recommend offering @donkpow a glamping opportunity in your driveway in exchange for his crafting experience. Win-win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much was your bacon cooker and the bacon cooker hauler that you sleep in? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win-win! You know...that thought did cross my mind. If only I had a welder I bet I would whip it up real fast. Honestly the one that @jsharr linked to was 550. I could get the cheaper wagon AND a cheap welder and just make it and then still have a welder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bacon cooker was about 2 bills I think. It's been a while. The bacon cooker hauler was 31 grand. But I feel like they were both worth it. I don't feel like a wagon that hooks itself onto the hitch of my bacon cooker hauler should be worth more than my bacon cooker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the Mercedes Benz behind you? Or the value of all the stuff in cart that smashed into the Mercedes Benz that was following you? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bragging rights are worth $400. Known fact. 400 + $150 for cart equals $550 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

team scooter Posted September 21, 2020 Share #12 Posted September 21, 2020 That lift thing is sweet! Sadly, now that we have the full size SUV, I'm finding less valid excuses to keep my truck around. I've been pricing those hitch cargo platforms with a ramp, or maybe a motorcycle carrier. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longjohn ★ Posted September 21, 2020 Share #13 Posted September 21, 2020 Most welders learn how to make strong welds with experience. We had guys that went to welding school that made real pretty welds that didn’t hold up when they first got hired. Over time they got better. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That ratcheting gimmick is just a boat winch that is used to hold $75000.00 Ranger boats to a trailer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bet you and G Man can use it on his truck, etc. Maybe make a cool slide out mount for the bacon cooker and the bacon cooker hauler.

If I only had room in the trailer....I would drop off one of my welders on my way to Alabama in a few weeks and pick it up on my way home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airehead Posted September 21, 2020 Share #27 Posted September 21, 2020 I wish I had known this yesterday. Some used ones sold for 11 each at an auction of landscape goods. For 11 I would have gotten you two and you could have experimented. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
