Just did a 4hr rounder to the city today for materials. I picked up 40ft of 1/2", 20ft of 5/8", 6ft of 1" and 4ft of 1 1/2" aluminum (6061 aircraft) round stock. Although I won't be using all of it on one project but can't wait till day break to get started. Can you guess what is on the drawing board???? Hmmm....maybe you might have to wait till monday nite to find out??? Heres a hint (duh) its for the nomad http://s2.images.proboards.com/lipsrsealed.gif http://s2.images.proboards.com/lipsrsealed.gif http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif :) :

I'd say so as well.
You sure are a busy bugger and your craftsmanship is fantastic. The wheels never stop turning :)

A shelter to keep the Nomad in. You forgot to buy something to cover the framework with though.

nope..not a still..not a sidecar..not a shelter..but I did make a mistake and now have to start all over again...%$#@%^ way too many angles, so I simplified it back to the drawing board...oh well..a week from monday it should be done..fingers crossed. But hey..you guys are sure comming up with some good ideas.

An outrigger so you can practice doing trick stuff without dropping the nomad on its side!
