Was able to get all the wear bars painted tonight, rear crossmember removed and the tank set into place. There is something now missing in the second pic, who can find what is missing ?

How many pieces of wood did you go through before you decided on the ones you were happy with? You had a stack in the pic when you had them shipped to you.

And a local coming by and helping me get it done

**GR8-68** · 02-15-2017, 09:27 PM

I dug through the whole stack, the rest belongs to the company for butcher block tops

cknfrmr · 02-15-2017, 09:39 PM

ouch. the truth hurts. u got me on that. I can only supply moral support. I don't have your mad skills and talent. that's why I don't have pics of mine. probably will stop by this weekend. need to check it out.

**GR8-68** · 02-15-2017, 09:43 PM

I will definitely need a hand when I am ready to assemble the bed. That would be tough by myself especially being painted. I will be out of town this weekend. Maybe the next weekend though.

cknfrmr · 02-15-2017, 09:47 PM

Its a deal.

rusty76 · 02-17-2017, 08:57 PM

We'll do a bed putting back together get together next weekend. Give me a better excuse to see the truck. Lol.

cknfrmr · 02-17-2017, 09:07 PM
