209 TACOS - B/S and shenanigans

I didn’t have plans to go to the taco meet personally. (Don’t judge me)

So the 13th is fine by me. I just didn’t want to put everyone else in a position to choose one or the other.

 

I made some progress today.

 

Watcha making? I like where this is going.

 

Looks good so far, is that going to slide around once you have the platform in since it is not the size of the slots in the bed?

 

I'd like to go to the meet up... But I'm not driving 5 hours (round trip) for some tacos lol


I'm good to go on the 13th. I'm sure there'll be others that are down to wrench on some shit on the 13th too.

 

I have plans for a camper shell. This will be the sleeping platform once I’m finished. I don’t like how a lot of after market systems and some others sacrifice storage space. My whole goal is to keep as much open storage underneath. I’ll run cross supports and add some legs. Still have a lot to do. I may figure out some sliding drawers but I have to figure out if I’m willing to lose that space. I’ve got some ideas though.

Nah. It’s all part of my master plan.

 

I used a Comcast internet bill.

 

Well then, clearly DMV gives no fucks.

Needed a 2nd form for the FAA a few weeks ago (can you say, sweet drone footage of trail runs?) and I used my renters insurance. Probably will use that again, but will have a copy of my comcast statement with me as well.

 

So I'm currently working on getting into merced PD. I made it through the written, interview and now I'm in the middle of background. My investigator emailed out questionnaires to all my references like 10 days ago or so. I let all of them know to keep an eye out for the email and to answer their phones if a 209 number calls. He had to call me today and tell me that not a single person has got back to him -_- gotta love that. So now I cant move forward until they respond to his emails/phone calls. Wtf lol

 

That sucks! Hopefully they get on that, good luck man.

 

So how's this for a total pain in the ass?




But... Believe it or not... I didn't fuck it up.

 

Speaking of switches......
started working to see if I can get these shipped to the US
they can be ordered momentary or on-off independently top or bottom

 

I want one labeled ‘ejection seat’

 

I'd say Jen is pretty excited about the RTT.

She started ordering some shit to make it cozy.

 

You’re in trouble now. This is what she’s going for....

 

That would be sweet. Does it come with the extra chic too?

 

if you havent already thought of lighting inside. i used some 12V LED rope lighting, put it on the support bar inside across the top and it ran through my back window into the cab and plugged into the cig lighter port. only used it at night when getting ready for bed or early in the morning when waking up so didnt have to worry about it using the truck battery much at all. my girl has the same kind of stuff in her cart for the camp trailer later on lol

 

That mattress pad looks pretty thick. Is the plan to leave it in the RTT?

 

Some more progress today. There will be some angles coming off of the foot for suppoty.
