I am by no means a builder, but generally where there's a need i find a means. So out of some of my recent gold sales i bought a rough, cheap slide on camper, but had no way of lifting it on and off the ute. Although it's not exceptionally heavy it's a 2 man job, and i am but 1. So today i found the perfect use for those recycled 3 mtr permapine logs i salvaged from a gardening job nearly 20 years ago As i said i'm not a builder but it's neat enough and will do the job at no cost :Y:

looks good mate and level as well i am impressed well done :Y: :Y: :Y:

 

[Secret Squirrels]

cheers mate Considering they're uneven posts not too bad, although final adjustments are by eye as that's what has to be deceived, especially in older places still going to add a couple of steel angles on the inside corners for extra load bearing strength. remains to be seen how i go turning the ute in the given distance :lol:

I am sure you will work it out
Do you have stands to put it on or are you going to lower it onto bricks

 

[Secret Squirrels]

No stands yet marksman, but i have a few ideas, it will all depend on what i have on hand to use as too what gets made. it has to be up high enough to work on it without stooping :Y:

If you have any poles left what about somthing like saw horses can be moved when needed with ease

 

[Secret Squirrels]

I only have 1 3mtr length left, the rest are all used up as garden edging at my cottage, but i do have half a dozen solid square bull nosed verandah posts that could be used.

 

[Secret Squirrels]

A sketch would be great mate :Y: as i said i'm no builder but i can mimmick things from pictures. :lol:

That was a quick one :lol: :lol:
If you can get some hard wood 4x2 or 4x4 they would last longer but all holes need to be pre drilled

 

[Secret Squirrels]

I'll have a look in my shed's, i've got a habit of salvaging stuff when i do jobs for clients i've got a fair collection of assorted timber I,m also going to have to make a jig up as the lifting shackles are welded in place all corners front and back, and i will be needing to keep the chain from rubbing against the canvas when hoisting.

Rubber floor matting like they use in pubs think its called anti stress matt however i could be wrong about that ] ]

 

[Highway1]

Once again well done SS. I think I would have some extra supports for those poles, to stop them from moving around when you have the weight of the camper on them. Might be just me, but 30 min work now might save you from having a bad situation. :Y: :Y:
