Newb from CT.
Hello all!!
Just gettin my feet wet with the rig scene, been around R/C most of my life but have always been running circles!(oval racer). Now I have become interested in these real nice trucks! I have had a very small collection ...... starting ..  A Knight w/alum. around and the MFU. Tamiya's flat bed w/light kit & legs. A Globetrotter FH12 stock except bearings A MAN TGX A Tamiya 3-axle Reefer trailer I am, now starting my 1st "custom" build, a R620 Scania stretched to 30" with 3 axle, single steer car hauler deck. Using Freddy for the rails and some other goodies, RC4WD for winch & drive shaft, trying to come up with a suitable lift system for the deck??? And some Knight Hauler tanks/boxes & running boards to fill in all the open space. I picked up a set of the wide fronts and a bunch of other goodies. Now for most of ya this is no big deal, and you all have prob. seen this build b4? But being the 1st real 1 for me, I figured baby-steps was a good way to start...? So as soon as the rails R done from Freddy then I will start mocking up all this mess and then maybe even post a pic. or 2 of my maiden build?? I am learning as I go so if any of U wanna interject, PLEASE do!!  I would appreciate the help/advise!! -Mike

Re: Newb from CT.
To all who read....
It was brought to my att. a few posts back that I might have sounded misleading? I was wandering through the forum and stumbled onto a person looking for Knight parts. I went to post that I had what he was looking for but could not because of low repy-count. I understand why the moderators set it up that way and respect that. I'm here for the long haul to learn, laugh, have some fun, make some friends, and get involved in a very cool new avanue of R/C! I am not here to just sell items. These parts are extras I had from this build I'm working on right now. I'm sorry for giving the wrong impression and I meant NO harm by the posting. Respectfully, -Mike

Re: Newb from CT.
Hey Mike you still made it in time, I even still got an hour to call my birthday lol.
Anyways thanks for the birthday wish and I hope to many ppl didn't take you wrong. You're a pretty good stand up guy it seems like I just kinda read it as a mistake on words as well. All is good on this end and still can't wait to see your projects come along.

Re: Newb from CT.
True....
I never saw it that way until it was brought up. MY fault...... (feelin pretty crappy about it....) ... I have all the necessary parts packaged up now and their going out to Freddy on Mon. He is going to make my rails and correct my faulty 3rd drive axle and hopefully I can get him to build a few goodies too!! There is some things that just can't be taught right now.... when Freddy is done and I get it back then I will re-mock everything and get you your dimensions you need for the lift system. Thanks a lot and I really appreciate everything!Mike
