Hi Guys, I'm starting a project and I need a piece of 1" square tubing, thin wall, rolled through a tubing roller to the desired radius. I don't have such a machine as of yet...does anyone have a tubing roller with 1" square dies in it? I only need about a 4' length rolled. Thanks! Chris

Cruiseroutfit, myself, and Clutch attempted to make it to Forest Lake today, since it was opening day (within a day or two, anyways) of the gate opening. We had a good time! The river crossing was high, but not as high as it was last year (so far). There was a river running down most of the...

We had a group of 10 built rigs and there were at least twice that many cameras going at all times, so let's see the pics!! Wow, what a neat trail! HUGE rocks, very technical, everything muddy/slippery which made it even more fun. That was the firsts time I have been wheeling in a long time...

4WDSU is doing a treasure hunt thing where you have to find GPS coordinates hidden somewhere within the pages of their magazine. Once you find the coordinates, go to them with your GPS and retrieve the hidden laser etched 4WDSU logo plate. Turn it in and get a prize. Anyone found the...

Ok, it isn't really a contest.....I am looking for good HI RES photos for the cover of the next U4 newsletter, the Compass. Oh BTW it's not a newsletter anymore, now it's a magazine. We're looking for advertisers too. So anyways, I need some good high res photos, 3mp or better. Don't send me...

I want to attach one piece of brass to another. What is the procedure? I have oxy/acetylene.....I think I need flux and brass rod, right? EZ

Written by Maverick: Last night we went for a quick little outing up AF canyon. It was a chance to use my new tow rig, to do a little exploring, to get out and do some jeeping, and to take my nephew who claims he has never been with us and was dying to go. So, altogether we had EZ, his...

This is a two part post. Part one: Look at me!! Look how I broke my axle HOUSING!!! Part two: Wo is me! Please donate to my axle fund. Or suggest what I should replace it with.

Okay, I've heard of some kind of anti-mud spray recipe that you can use to prevent mud from sticking to your undercarriage. WD40 would sort of work, but I think after enough water splashed on it, it will all rinse off and the mud will start to stick. This is in preparation for the TTC event...

I had an interesting conversation with my Mom and Dad tonight over dinner. They were telling me how they were in REI and bought a new tent for backpacking. FYI, I have done some backpacking in my day, along with a lot of skiing, rockclimbing, mountaineering, hiking, etc. in addition to the...

I must have nothing to do but dream up crazy crap like this. Let's say we have a 4 hour (arbitrary number picked out of the air) nascar style (lap) race at Rattlesnake. It could be for land use, a charity, or whatever. All participants pay $20 (arbitrary, again) to enter. Here's how it...

Topic of the week: User Conflicts. I'd like to hear about conflicts you have had on (or off) the trail with other people, related to your rig of choice. It could be other motorized users, pedestrians, ATV'ers, etc. Or even with other 4x4 users. When the FS and BLM revise their...

A few of us RME'ers are finally going to enter and compete in the Team Trophy Challenge! It is a team event, two rigs, two people per rig. Unlike a rockcrawling competiton where everything revolves around driving the course, this is an event that puts other skills to task: Navigation, problem...

Brett and I were out exploring for the Winter Convention and stumbled across this ravine. It is well inside the Open to cross country travel area so it is fair game to drive/develop. Go here: N 40 degrees 16.126' , W 112 degrees 11.103'. When you get there, look to your left. Down the...
