CHUCKY'S TREE HOUSE !

For those that are thinking of building nerf bars/ cage for the outside of your truck cab i have run across some products to make your job much easier !
Carbon steel weld butt long radius 90 degree elbows sch 40 ! I found mine at local pipe supply in 2 in id for $6 .50 each and that saves me a shat load of draging the pipe bender out and my dies wouldnt make a radius this tight anyways without crushing the center a little even with sand in the pipe !
And no matter hoe wide or narrow the radius you need you can trim the elbow to fit your pipe /weld/grind/paint easy peasy !!!getpvf.com/carbon-steel-butt-weld-long-radius-90-elbows/?sku=SL901.0&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIo6mAzfuW-gIVjT6tBh3MHQNKEAQYAiABEgKXFvD_BwE

Still trying to find pipe to do the project without buying it new in 2 in sch 40 turns into 120 bucks per pipe and probably need 3 =21 ft stalks at least so maybe i can stumble on some cheaper pipe if i dont get in a rush !

so did you have to buy new or were you able to scrounge up from around town enough left over sticks of schd 40 pipe to use?
I had enough to do these 2 roof side and down the windshield pieces but im going to have to get another 40 ft . The 4 cross bars will be 24 ft then the 2 sloping bars to take limbs up and over the box another 16 ft . Figured i would knock the windshield angle to roof done with what i had then the cross bars will be easier/faster when i get them ! The 2 in id sch 40 turns into 115 per stick x 2 and going to get it and any other time i would be stepping over the stuff ! Plus ive got to get the material for the surprise that will be on the rack .

Well, it’s official. I’ll be hauling Chucky’s property across state lines. It’s funny… I have a strange inclination to get a shot of penicillin and an attorney on retainer.
Penicillin is our friend !!! And always keep a fleet of snake eating attorney's in the shadows to handle the (OOOPS) in life !
Oh and dont worry bringing the girls home you wont even know there with ya (lmao) they only cause a little ruccus when you stop to get fuel and such the truck drivers get a little exited and seem to gather around quickly !!!! Just keep them plenty of tequila and bublegum and suntan lotion and they stay fairly passive ! Just dont stop the truck if its dark and theres any kind of neon glowing in eye sight cause then its ON and drama follows so show no weakness or they will eat ya!!!
Rhino 5/4 was kind enough to let them come down for some camping and exploring !!! I hate they pulled him away from his truck build for the past weeks but he seemed really happy every time i talked to him ! Sorry about all the glitter and perfume on your upholstery stanley steamer usually gets it off the furniture and carpet pretty good ! I feel sure they made him enough money to cover any and all mishaps they may or may not have caused while (CAMPING) LMAO !
Hey m715mike thanks for trafficking I mean bringing the girls back home from their Texas Tour ! When you get close to Nashville call me on the burner phone 5/4 gave you and my associates will meet you for the offload at the secure location ! And try to not make eye contact with the Associates if all possible during the exchange for a more pleasant outcome !
I hate to be MR Obvious but just unpin the leg of the Uncle Chucky LOVE JACKS to raise the height to reach your habitat for ANTI-ROKN at that level ! I will be producing a lighter built LOVE JACKS for folks at your age that dont seem to rock the boat as much as you once did in your youth ! At a slightly reduced price of coarse !!!!!!!!!! lol
