Smiley, Add Matt (Indy4x) on the list. You should put him on the may be list for know (untill he confirms this himself), but on the phone he told me he would be there.

just found one of the front cross members was bent from callalantee and cant get the skid plates back on after oil change. not to big a deal. This might just be a good time to go ahead and start the sas and be ready in time for spring. well see. Ill keep you posted. Now that's the spirit <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> Try using a floorjack with a pc of wood on it to apply weird pressures,if it came off it'll go back on......hopefully <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" /> We will not be bringing the camper unless I can get a bigger truck.......and I plan to wheel this time so my rodeo probabley won't even be there......we'll see.

Uber Shelter Update:
So there I wasà for the second night in a row; sitting in the den, with a huge sheet of graph paper laid-out on my 2Æ x 3Æ lap-desk - gazing far off into space, deep in thought - doing my level-best to apply the formula for determining the length of the unknown side of a triangle û and then relating that kernel of information to assist in discovering the unknown length of an arc that is represented in two-dimensional form, with a known base-length and heightà
àwhen suddenly Miss Kathy says ôIÆve already lost you, havenÆt I?ö
ôHuh?ö (only half-listening)
ôYouÆre already there, arenÆt you?ö
ôWhere? û What are you talking about?ö (with countless hard-won calculations vaporizing into thin air).
ôUwharrieà YouÆre already in Uwharrie, arenÆt you?ö
ôUhhàö (trying hard not to loose any more of the elusive equations that were floating around in my head)
ôYou may be in the same room with me, but youÆre not really hereà youÆre THERE.ö
[* BUSTED *]
In all fairness, the design for new and improved Uber Shelter has indeed been consuming some of our æquality timeÆ latelyà (My Bad! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" /> ) àbut MAN-O-MAN, is it ever gonna be SWEET! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
If what I have on paper right now will translate seamlessly into reality [* fingers way crossed *] - then its latest iteration will be modular, and completely freestanding û meaning that it can be set-up in one of several configurations, with different layouts/heights/widths/lengths (as needed, depending on available space) - without requiring any trees for structural supportà or even any exterior support ropes!
If this actually works, it will be such an improvement over all of the previous versions that we might have to come-up with a new name for ità
Personally, I was thinking maybe æThe LodgeÆ <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
And hey û if it doesnÆt work, most of the supportive components can be returned for a refund û and I can always just set it up like before. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Oh, and smiley, if price allows it, waterproof canvas might be a more heavy duty form of cover. Certainly more-so than the blue and silver tarps that made the old uber shelter. -J <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
