Big O's Trailers

Posted on 7:33 AM by Unknown
Got my trailer. Now I need to get hold of the Wood Fairy to do some tweaks. I would not mind having that bed liner stuff sprayed in. Also I need to get some square boxes made with wheels on the bottom for my canvas prints.   I purchased it Big O's in Portage.  Nice family owned company AND, I got two caps,  shhhh don't tell LeRoy! 

Seriously though, LeRoy talked me through everything and I really like and trust these guys! 1 3/4 inch plywood base, weighs 650 pounds which is 150 pounds lighter then the U-Haul, 7'7" interior length (5 inches shorter then U-Haul). 4'8" wide, Max load is 2340 which is strangely 500 pounds more then the u-Haul.

Empty it was great on the interstate but on 151 from Madison to Cbus it was as bad as a u-Haul with road harmonics.  But it was empty and bouncy.   Hwy 151 totally sucks for trailers anyway. I need to turn my hitch around as the trailer was slanted up a little and I want to get it more even.  

My ONLY disappointment was I could not get a black trailer!!  :-( 

If you are looking for a trailer check these guys out!!

Big O's Trailers!

Good thing I started Lucroy and Gomez last night on my fantasy team (only 4 games out of 1st place).  Brewers actually look good offensively for next year.  Problem will be pitching which is not new but I think there is a chance Grienke could come back to Milwaukee.  He is totally sucking in LA and uncomfortable.  Let's hopse so  LOL.

----------------------------------------------------------

Hey - there is a new show on BBC America called COPPER!!  It's really really good.  It's a cop show based in 1864 New York at Five Points.  It stars three Irish cops that are like an old time CSI.

Highly recommended!   Deadwood-ish.

Ever notice when you get a scratch in your glasses it is RIGHT where you look?   grrrrrrr

I'm finally getting to the end of my Wooden Boat show images.  Here are a few and one from last year that I did not see on this blog, did I never post it???  I must have.







--------------------------------------------------

Ever since I learned that not only am I in first place for the three week League Golf Tournament but also am in some sort of playoff for League Championship I can't stop hurting myself.

First I tweak my back reaching for milk and now last night I flushed the toilette and a mosquito flew out, I went to squish him, missed and strained my thumb.  I am so doomed!

Have a good Tuesday!
