1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

@FirstGenVol he's gonna need your help there.

 

All of Florida is a flood zone but this particular house is considered barrier/coastal crap legal jargon and does not qualify for flood insurance, basically your on your own.

 

I kinda mocked up my draw bar situation on the trailer. I will take it to work to put 240v to it. I didn’t think my swing out was that long but apparently that’s what I need to clear. I’ll hook it up to my truck and trim as much as I can, then weld that 2” tube to the center spine of the trailer.

 

Is that trailer galvanized?

 

I don’t think so. It’s painted tan-ish.

 

Gotcha, I don't know specifics, I've just always believed welding galv. was dangerous / toxic

 

Oh it definitely is!
Welding gases in general aren’t good for you, but galvi welding is super bad for you if not properly protected. This trailer is homemade and the materials don’t seem to be galvi.
As of now, I’m hoping to have about 42 gallons of water on board when I go out. and I want to build it out/up, but I’m still torn on 1ton or 3500# axles.

 

Very

 

Yeah, we didn't know that when one of our guys stick welded (daubed) some strut together. It smelled funny.

 

That was my thought also, but I'd like to take it from those seat bolts downward to the floor, but don't have a brake press or anything that could act like it anymore.

So now I'm just making excuses, hem-hawing and bitching about how nobody makes it anymore. For once I'd like to just pay the money, but not the kinda money a fab shop would charge.

I think you just described the entire state of FL

That, the population glut, snowbirds, and misc crazies and/or idiots are what drove every single immediate and extended family member to leave the state. Except my FIL and his wife, they're situated in a killer spot in Miami, same place she's lived for 60-something years. "Too old to move", but when they do, their place will pull a fortune.

 

Don't worry y'all, it happens on the SHO page too.

 

weird. who leaves the 'sc' off the beginning of their forum nickname like that?

 

Took me a minute - touche!
I love the end of the post "what's the best idea or what are the cons and pros of the three options? (Answer now bitches - my reaction score is 4)

 

And what's up with the guy responding to him and not giving him an ounce of shit for being in the wrong gen?

 

He must have been warned.

 

Oh yeah, there is that.

 

Nope, they proceed to discuss it right there. They don't have the same sense of humor as here, so I mainly just lurk.

 

New poll is up.

Sorry, I can't vote. There's not a F*ck no option.

 

Noted. Will add options.

 

guys i’ve seen your abuse on outsiders and would like to thank you for allowing me into your cult but i’ll always question someone that allows someone like me into their club which is a quote from somewhere still looking hard for a decent deal tunny that not all rusted up. -J.P.

 

I elected to vote NO and then elaborate in the thread.

You're far from the weirdest dude in here.
And since I signed up, I've noticed the 1GT crowd has, far and away, the best sense of humor.

 

just keep in mind i’ve my finger close to the 2.5 tundra rescue report button at all times
