Ordered our FWC Hawk in early July and used the time since to put new tires (Firestone Destination ATs), and a backup camera (wireless) on the truck. Then just waited... and waited. Decided to turn my distress into productive effort yesterday and built this dollie for the camper I have yet to obtain. I think when pregnant women do stuff to prepare for the soon-to-come baby it is called "nesting". I nested.
About 4' x 6' x 3' made from 2x4s and a sheet of plywood plus some 4x4 to help mount the casters. Did pretty well on planning except I made the width beams 4' and so when dropped the plywood on the top it came out 3" short. Oops. Rather than take it all apart and correct it, I added a 3" strip of plywood to the short side As a former mechanical design engineer, it agrieves me to make this kind of mistake because I didn't bother to make a proper layout of my design. On the other hand, it's liberating to just scrawl something out on a scrap of paper and go out and build it.
