Good work Bo, can never have too much bench top
Space ;)

On another note, how far along have you gotten on your garage/workshop
this summer?

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Thanks, Joe. I'm keeping the workspace in the basement, with some upgrades for the RC trucks. The shop area is all excavated except a bunch of boulders in VW beetle size. Need to crack them into smaller pieces to be able to move them out and away. This year was supposed to be a year of not much work, had more work than ever. So time for the shop build hasn't been there yet. Hope to resume soon.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Small Sunday update. Jackhammer coming for the boulders. woohoo! While waiting for that, the 300 feet driveway to Dogville play area on the way.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

I LOVE that idea! If I had better than a plastic folding table as a workbench, I just may steal that idea.............but I don't.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Thanks, Skeeter. any table can be upgraded to a road. :lol:

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Amen, no such thing as too many outlets.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Thanks, Zabco. Now there is an outlet every 5 feet, and then some :D

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

A bit of time in the east corner. Slowly moving in stuff. :)

A test is always good to do.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Am i the only one thinking the 2 lane blacktop needs the white Stop Here line at the intersection with the wood wrapped bench?

Maybe like a rolling hills and sky kind of mural on the block wall...

Too many outlets and lights are a nice problem to have

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Thanks, Frizzen. Yes, a great idea. I think people will get tired of this photobombing soon. :lol: Until that occurs I will keep adding stuff and gadgets, Snapp a picture or two every now and then.....I feel inspired to get the really big build going soon Until that happens. Keep clapping and stay warm.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Hey, a little break in the shop overhaul. Let's test the workspace a bit with something different.

Got a new fella from Amazon, completely out of scale, or not. After some hacks, it should be a useful machine.

Put some Tamiya wheels next to it for comparing the size.

I also figure out some of the recipes for the makeover.

After some serious hacks, it should turn out somewhat like this one.

Oh well let the cutting begin, order some more parts.

Re: KH Beam Hauler

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

I am looking forward to the next step!

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Nice!
I was wondering when someone would start making one into a Hyster or container stacker. I didn't realize they were big enough that semi wheels fit.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Next step, Kerst. And a few more to make.

Frizzen, This is so much fun. Trying to block my calendar for unnecessary work, so i can finish this bugger.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

I forgot I had this picture that show better the semi wheels.
