Howdy
« on: March 18, 2011, 08:13:36 AM »
Hello all.
Michael from Sale (Vic) here, well after years of thinking I don't want to tow a camper trailer because the hinderance would outweigh the advantages I have changed my view.
Unfortunately for me having the "I reckon I could build it better" (well cheaper anyway ha ha) afliction, this will mean a lot of hours in the shed pondering and building. Bloody shame that!
I have been doing a bit of lurking on here lately and have enjoyed all that I have read so hopefully one day soon you may be reading my build thread.
I am still working through the thought of buying one to fill in the time between staring this project and completing, then selling it later as my builds tend to turn into epics and drag out a bit but we will see.
Anyway looking forward to contributing and learning.
Michael
