thanks Mac!
feel free to borrow it any time you are around OKC

it was pretty easy to build, the thread link posted back a page or two has all the dimensions on it.

Thanks for all the cab pictures. Nice to see that gizmo in action

well work is getting in the way of my free time again so it will probably be the weekend before I get anything else done

oh, i did get the cab unloaded at work tonight. the cab jig works well with a forklift also

now I need to get my cab dolly built!

Man Joe you are one busy guy!!! Keep up the good work, I'll have to come check 'er out one of these days once you get it back together (probably soon from the way you work lol). Let me know if you need a hand, I'm just down the road
