Load binders & hooks
gatorincebu replied to landman's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Personally I would want the ratchet type binders. done with the seperate hooks etc. Never have like the snapover binders. But I would take some of them as solid units to hang un behind the cab or onthe side of the trailer rub rails. The KFS binders are photoectehed. Don't know how much load they will stand?

Carl, Yes I do get around. Got to stay active ya know? I had to come to where the action is. It seems some of our other haunts have just about died. And that is distressing! Now I just need to get moved and get back to building. Be Well Gator -
Log Truck Question............
gatorincebu replied to fantacmet's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Buying thin gs from KFS or any other Euro Aftermarket supplier. I not a bad way to go. Yes shipping costs can be an issue. When I b uy from KFS. I buy a lot of different things.And while I do not have the order shipped directly to the Philippines ( I could, but don't want to go there) I have things shipped to me Daughter IN Florida. And she then forwards things to me. n My point is that in my opinion if you buy a lot of parts it makes the shipping fee all the more reasonable. Howard at KFS does a great job of packaging things. For your log trailers I would recomend the chain binders and also the starp winders that could be modified to use small chain.KFS also has cleavises and stuff like that as well. So for my money it is worth it to me to pay the shipping. Be Well Gator PS there was also any article in one of the model mags on how to make the strap or chain winders. I just donot remember which one. Tjhe Ducth Model Club website has all the how to articles. You might try looking there. -
Peterbilt 352 Wrecker
gatorincebu replied to Superpeterbilt's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Terry, Looks like you've come a long way in your modeling skills since I met you a few years ago. I like what I have seen of your builds here in this Forum. Oh a suggestion. If you are going to invest in a lathe and or a mill. Do not go to Harbor Freight. There is better stuff available out there Be Well Gator -
