    Artisan's M916

    Yep, the project has changed. It is no longer a flatbed. It is a mount and catwalk for 5th wheel plate. The superstructure is a catwalk and the mount for my 16K 5th wheel plate. (Not to mention this is all removable and my 3.5" or 2" SafHolland 5th wheel plates will mount up allowing me to...

    Nope, that is cat walk :-) LOL I was thinking about this a few hours ago I ship-u-not. I will get stencils that say KEEP CATWALK CLEAN, STORE NO CARGO ;-) It has been addressed in so much that there is 4" of travel, there is about 5.5" of space if you measure from the tangent of a wheel...

    Wire Spec

    The site Mtn sent us to has THIS wire. It is 3 conductor, not two, I still am looking, they want $7.00 a foot for that stuff too! I also saw this on that website; SOOW Jacket is rated to 600 Volts. Jacket is Oil resistant and Outdoor Weather resistant. Typically used for outdoor extra hard...

    Wire Spec

    Ah HA! Starting to get some place here. Thank U Mtn This wire I need will go from the crane winch to a "box" maybe even a Fat 50 ammo can so a 10' piece is more than enough, from there it is powered by a Slave Cable so we should be A-Ok on the length vs amps issue.

    I think I will simply add a tiny 5th wheel plate to the back and call it legal. I appreciate the input tremendously. I found one for $100, let's see how creative I can get w/ it. :-)

    Wire Spec

    Thanx Gimp but I am looking for 1 cable that has 2 "Conductors" inside it. The Conductors need to be #4, stranded. The outside of the cable needs to be ROUND to fit my plug perfectly. The cable needs to be BLACK w/ an OD of real close to 5/8" . Somewhere there is probably a manufacturer...

    I am electrical ignorant. Tables? I never work w/ wire, welding leads sounds about right. Who makes that stuff and I will research.

    What man can do, man can undo. Looks like I will grab a mini 5th wheel and connect the dots or perhaps just mount it on top... HA! Holland/Binkley FW0001 miniature 5th wheel

    Wire Spec

    What is the proper way to spec wire / how do I call out this; Wire Color = BLACK 2 Wire in one round casing 5/8" OD #4 Stranded Wires (high amp usage, a small winch) Mil Spec? I want it to be very plyable, easy to coil, so FINE Stranding yes? ) The connector I am using is an IIT CANNON...

    Artisan's M916

    I think I paid $335 or so, plus I flipped a guy $100 to pick it up for me. The boom needed some massaging, the motor lid was missing, along w/ power cord and circuit breaker and switch. I got insanely lucky and found a NOS winch box assembly COMPLETE so now my winch motor and solenoids are...

    SNIP ( A HUGE misunderstanding on others parts, all is handled, all is well SSville again... :-) ) ... the frame is now painted and bolted back down to the bed w/ 11- 3/4" Mil Bolts and Nuts. I designed a sandwich mount for the front so no welding to frame was necessary and no frame...

    Artisan's M916

    Yes, the key word here is "removable". I I have a 3.5", and a 2" kingpin, oscillating 5 wheels plates and mounts for it. I can't wait to accessorize...boxes and stake-style gates, chain lockers, tie-down o-ring banjo holes...etc.
