But even more important than anything else, the module frame is "Rule 0" compliant, so it will actually be available for use in a setup:
It looks like a Mini and I am sure you were just trying a lengthwise fit. Having transported modules in everything from a F-150 to a Beech Baron, the precarious placement of the module in the photo leads to scuffing of your vehicle and module and its details. One panic stop and you module experiences, a wicked scraped earth/tsunami effect.
Have you seen the new Santa Fe to the Bay book? 4 pages dedicated to Ferry Point, map and photos of the Santa Fe Navy. Particularly good shot of a SF barge deck.
Dave Love the industrial look of the module construction. is the aluminum framing going to be covered by fascia? Some unwanted unsolicited advice I would try a test fit of the module in the Mini. G
One thing I would change though , I'd run the long pieces the full width and tuck the side pieces in behind them . It would look more finished that way ....Mike
It is finally time to start building the ferry slip module. I wanted a to make sure it was strong and light, so I went a bit crazy and spent some $$$ on aluminum extrusion to build the module frame.First step was to cut the t-slot extrusion to length (yes, we moved everything out of the way before we turned on the saw):Next came some of the "erector set" pieces to join the cut strut into a frame:But even more important than anything else, the module frame is "Rule 0" compliant, so it will actually be available for use in a setup:(fixed images that appear to have vanished)
