Well gave the dobinsons lift a baptism today, very happy! A lot less playing bulldozer and dragging my arse! Good fun play today with the Vic Crew and managed to pick up an awning on the way home. Have mounted the Rhino Sunseeker II, just need to set it up tomorrow.

Looks like fun. And my excuse for being awake and on line early this morning was I just got back from seeing Ross Nobel up at Caloundra. Wife had to be back for stuff today so we turned around and drove back, had to let the brain relax for a little while before bed. Well worth seeing if he visits your neck of the woods though don't give him easy fodder!My 150 build - http://www.pradopoint.com/showthread.php?27423-A-Random-approach-to-a-Bluestorm-150-GXL-D4D-automatic

New Rhino sunseeker II awning fitted up
Setup
Awning extension and new swags.
The awning and extension had been used once by the store manager @ Roof rack City, so it was out of the box and I got a bargain, very happy with it.
Still a bit more to do before we head off Thursday avo. Might do some work on the iPad mou t and fridge slide this arvo.150 with stuff bolted on!

It's in a separate bag with the two poles, and a bag for the two ropes and pegs. You can see some of it standing up at the back of the car in the first photo. I was hoping it would fit between the drawers and the back seats, but a bit too long, will probably strap it to the cargo barrier.
Cheers

You should go into it as a business. CNC routers are expensive though.
Once again, impressive mate, the Roo.
Originally posted by BendmanHi Josh - loving your set up mate. Saw your awning and extension and thought this might be of interest to you. It's a wind breaker for the side of your awning which will give that little bit of rain protection to the swags in unexpected showers. It was a post here that gave me the idea but I can't remember where now. I picked one up recently, looks good and am only using it for the first time this weekend.

I have to admit I never though of sleeping under the awning! Use it for shade on the beach etc but that is a great idea.My 150 build - http://www.pradopoint.com/showthread.php?27423-A-Random-approach-to-a-Bluestorm-150-GXL-D4D-automatic

So it's been a pretty hectic few weeks, over Easter we decided that we would be going to Fraser, so we managed to get a few jobs finished off. Fitted the suspension, wired up the Lightforce Genesis driving lights, fitted second set of prototype drawers, whipped up a quick ply fridge slide and fitted my custom half cargo barrier from Autosafe. Next sort out some Led lighting, some USB points and replace my poor battered bash plates!
Apart from the tie down straps, this fridge slide cost me $8 for the slide bolt, everything else was offcuts in the factory.. choice!Last edited by JPH; 08-05-2013, 12:51 PM.150 with stuff bolted on!
