    I meant the singer but I feel ya.

    I just bought a new one. Had my grandpas and the handles just gave it up. Needed a tire again so I just went with a new one for the same money it would take to fix the other.

    my dad would spend $50 to fix that and then have it break again a year later. True story cause it keeps happening.

    Yeah. Now there is no wood and a solid rubber tire. The crappy metal will give way but I’ll be too old to use it by then

    Can make a trip any day I'm off so if Brian can't get them I can grab them and come up. Got a buddy in Fort Mill so I can use it as an excuse to grab a beer with him lol

    The frames are thin so that little plate that you weld sliders onto slowly dents the frame in. I'd fully skin the outside of the frame with 1/8" before doing weld on. 4xinnovations has a video when they dropped it from really high it did that. I've seen the dented up frames and tweaked ones from lots of use. Bolt on tends to distribute the load well. I'd thow BudBuilt in there for sliders and they are local. Slider length is tough as I don't think anyone really has a good length one some a little better than others. 4xinnovations use to have the longest ones and some IMO the best coverage ones they changed the design up a couple years ago and kinda just did what everyone else was doing.
    LFD makes some decent stuff take a gander at BudBuilt if you are wanting local their stuff is really well engineered and impressive.

    Budbuilt are great guys, and right up the road from me. They aren’t well known but they know their shit and top notch stuff. They trail test everything before they release any products.

    They can be extremely heavy also depending on how you get them made.
