Yeah, what he said.. I like this because it saves most of the leg room when entering / exiting. I need to maximize the interior space in mine, because I am not a small person.

Well I was sitting in bed, last night and I looked over at my wife and said, "do you still have any of those pipe cleaners?"

So Dave is building his own...
Colin is broke.... (I can relate to that
)
So we're down to..
Jeff
Matt
Brian
and myself.
Correct? 4 trucks, with 3 being pretty close and a reg cab. this should go pretty easy.
So 360 ft or tube?
Did I miss anything? I plan to go pick up some floor plates this weekend.

Sounds right to me. I'd grab 400 ft though in case of screw-ups. And if it happens that we have too much, we can always pawn it off on one of the others that needs a cage.
I'm ready to pay in, just give the word.
And are we upgrading a bender to hydro? Someone have a link on how-to? I can get mine setup ahead of time.
And are we starting Friday? I'm up for that. Just gotta ask for the time off soon.

Where are you guys building these? Any room for a Dodge/w camper over there for an overnighter, or a nearby RV park? I'd like to come over and photograph the event as well as learn something, and help out where needed

Jefe That's what I was thinking too. Best to be on the safe side.
I'm up for Friday, I just have one hang up, and I will not know till the last miniute. I have Jurry Duty that week.
Rick as for space for the Truck and Camper... I'll find out. I know my dad is talking about getting a gate put in this weekend so we can move more cars around. There is already 4 on the backyard grass

Cool that you're shooting this, Rick.
Someone should make the webcam idea happen.

Yes. We're doing this rather than Big Bear the weekend of April 14th.
I'll pass the webcam duty off to John.Jefe is the A/V tech guy.
He already said he'd be there, and I'd much rather be getting my hands dirty than getting a webcam running.

and they are on Cable so it should not be to slow. Rick, My mom said she is going to talk to her neighbor to see if she can park there motor home there for a day or so. If not she said she has a extra room you could stay in. Then you could just cruise out in the Mach 1.

I am in.
What about getting one stick of 1.25 .120 wall tube so we can sleeve any joints that we have?
Also will there be room for my truck and trailer? Or do I need to drive the ranger up there? Tracy and I also might need a place to crash somewhere if possible so we dont have to do the long drive each day. I will know more in a bit if we will though.
Jefe I will try to find some links on pirates and post them up about the air over hydro.

Matt,
I think we will be out of room for sure. The city will not like tent's on the front lawn and the backyard is full of cars: LOL
I talked to the wife and she said it would be cool if you want to crash at our place for a night.
Or my other thought was to get the Ranger done first, so if you wanna take off saturday night you could.
I think we should do a potluck for Saturday night too...Just like T-haven
