Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Any pics of your beam trailer as it tracks really well ?
And is that your other trailer behind the globe ?

Cheers Tracy

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Hi Tracy.

Thanks for asking.

I.m working on the unit for some improvement right now, and i am going to make more photos. This KH is a prototype that i put together in a hurry, it worked so i put some paint on it and went to Cabin Fewer.
The Trailer behind the globe is next project. it's suppose to go behind a four axle truck a (Tridem). Im traveling for work right now, i will post picture as soon i am back.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Bo - really kool engineering. Even backs up awesome. Hats off to ya.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Thank You Izzy :)

It's excellent for Parallel Parking.........if you can find a spot.....:D

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Ha when it's that heavy you can always just make a spot!:lol::lol::D

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Yes..........size matter.......:lol:

I'm back from boring work.......time for play.......New update this coming weekend :)

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Very cool and unique build. Love how cutting the ugly sleeper off of a King Hauler and slipping some floats under the front fenders changes the look of those trucks so drastically.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Thanks Claus :)

Can't keep my self in order to follow a build instruction :cop: And i love challenges :D I got myself an easy drive :eek:

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Where did you get the beam? Or did you make it?

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Hi Howie.

I make the beams from usually 1/4 in MDF, depending on type of beam or box girder. Some of them i make from hardwood. The Beam on this is MDF.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

That's a very creative and economical way of doing it, get thinking!

Also, in case anybody is wondering, MDF = medium density fiberboard.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Thanks Claus. :)

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

That is real neat

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Thank You Mike. :) Still got a ton more to do. Also waiting for more parts to arrive.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Ok so thats how it tracks so well similar set up to the spreader bar I use on my trucks some times

Cheers Tracy

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Love it! So unique, like nothing I seen done before!

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Thanks Tracy :) Do you have any picture of you're 1:1 setup ? Is it Elphinstone Trailers ?

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

I like your setup. It looks realistic. How many cups of coffee did it take to calculate the pivot points.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Thank You Claus :)

Thinking outside the BOX :D

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Thank You Ken Orme :)

Not even half a cup of coffee . Got the idea in my head, no time to waste.
Grab the material cut and drill, bolt it on and try it. I was very surprised when i found out it was working. I got so occupied so when i looked up a saw half a cup coffee still on the bench........ice-cold. :eek: I was expecting a lot more trail and error, Some days are better than others. :)

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Thank You All for checking in here. Hope you find it OK.
I would like if you leave comments and ideas, and Questions.
