Ohio Nooby
Hey ya'll..just thought I would say hi and stuff... I live in Columbus and just recently bought myself a 2000 superduty crew cab with the gasser 5.4.. Looks like the best forum Ive found.. I signed up for another area forum but it looks like if you dont have a jeep, not too many people care to talk to ya... But anyways..here are a few pics of my rig.

Torches do come in mighty handy.. Im thinking about building something that can be loaded into the bed of my truck with a forklift..somethin that will hold all my big tools..welder,torches,generator, etc.. all in one self contained skid I guess..gives me a good reason to get to know my tubing bender a little better too. I havent played with it much. Maybe see about making a fancy headache bar as well.. Anyone have any ideas on this?

Columbus can't be too much more confusing than Dayton..I spent alot of time out there latley. Our company just opened an office there and they have been keeping me busy..You may have seen us out there a month or two ago. We were doing the drilling along I-75 near downtown Dayton. That is one scary stretch of Highway where 75 and 4 split and the northbound curve.. I was a nervous wreck on that job.

Shouldn't I be wealthy if I live in the O.C.?
Now to my real comments
Have you thought about making a slide in tool box? Kind of like a slide in truck camper. Put all your tools in this box, jack it up, back you truck under it and lower the jacks. No need for a fork lift. I've been toying with this idea for about a year now. I use my 96 F350 crew cab for hauling my cars around with. When I actually get a garage I will be making a Rally Car. In Performance Rally, trailers are a pain in the rearend to take to service areas, so alot of Pro Rally racers use vans or cube vans to haul there tools, spares and tow the car. I'm not that wealthy and I don't want to buy a vehicle for one purpose only, yet. Do you get what I'm saying?
