You cant do that, It has to be all designed in CAD or at least Sketch-up first before you can even think about building this sort of thing MASSPILOT. HAHAHA just joking! I know you use Hand CAD. You cant fool me! Its looking good by the way. Now just hurry up already and lets go on a trip. Oh and hurry up and get me my hot water heater, I'm freezing!

Hand CAD

Is that available on iPhone or Android? Can I run it on my phone or do I need a tablet?

 

[Another Ahab]

You KNOW there's "an app for that"!

You need to take it to the scales ?

 

[Masspilot]

Already did it's well under the 26000 lbs the box actually only weighs 1640lbs when they lifted just the box the crane had a scale on it. The box is actually lighter then the original bed. Airdrop version weighs just a little over 16000lbs without fuel.or crew from original. I made sure I looked up all the specs. So I have plenty of room to play with.

Did you get the number on the bed weight ?

And "WE" need more photos !

 

[Masspilot]

The bed weighs almost 2500lbs those tie of lift arms weigh alot. I'ma definitely going to be under weight

 

[99nouns]

Just for the search results FMTV M1078 bed weighs about 2500lbs in case someone searches in the future.

The box is pretty much done just a few small things to finish and should be painting box with Rust-Oleum gloss black this week.

It sits exactly 11'6" right now from ground to top of camper box. Once ac is installed on roof I will sit at 12' 7". Well below the dot limit if anyone has any questions feel free to text or call me 502-640-1225

That's not too bad. Our one ton dodge with camper was 12,4" to the top of the ac.

Very nice. I wish I had that garage and truck.

 

[Mos68x]

Looks great! I can't wait to see it finished! How much interior living space are you calculating there to be?

 

[Another Ahab]

Very nice. I wish I had that garage and truck.

No kidding, that's a real sweet "shed":

- overhead gantry

- two-story office space

Nice!
