Great pix Swisho B)

I'd rather have tools that I don't need, than not have the tools I do need.

Swishy mate
Two things firstly I think finally I have worked it out why you paint them Battleship grey, Steel in it's raw form is grey so no one realises there is no paint on the underside of your trailers. Now please don't try and tell me you never touch bottom.
Secondly notice the super sender one by 8 dolly in the other photo, just curious how is it going?
