How funny's this .Was in at bridgestone yesterday to get my tyres organised for fitting today,well the bridgestone warehouse is closed for stocktaking on friday.So no tyres till monday,bad luck if you wanted tyres that aren't on the shelf, my trailer has nice rims and can't be moved.
Back out to fire up the welder for some finishing touches.

Yeah, that is really taking it where it hurts now. I think I'll start riding a horse to work, and I hate horses.

Posty: the risk of leaving things to the last minute mate
that said... driveline havn't been able to get me a front driveshaft until tuesday next week So I am no better.
When i was getting my new tyres I was pretty relieved when i found out they were sitting in the Brisbane warehouse.

Only way I can justify a V8 sitting in the garage.

I never knew I had to. But like Grant said, It's done now, god gave me a hand to do it.
When I got off the phone to Brett, I was in a grat mood, so I rang the lady at Trek, and let her share my mood. Had to leave a message, but I am sure she got the point. I

like byron said new canvas needs to be wet down to seal up.
sticking the material makes holes in the canvas. wetting the tent down all the thread soaks up the water and swells, filling the holes.
I suggest you guys put the campers up and soak all the seams with your hose. let it dry and repeat. My tent doesnt leak a drop after doing this.

Interesting.... My camper said it is ready to use out of the box. It has a 'factory waterproofing'.
In saying that I hosed it down & coated it in a water proofing solution any way
