Title: extension across pavement
Post by: Spruce on December 21, 2010, 09:59:27 am

Hi all,

A few years ago a member posted some pictures of a 'boom' that he had made using a swivel from a castor wheel fixed to his van's roofrack. When locked in position he could extend his hose out above the pavement and position his hosereel in the custies garden - this was his solution to preventing a trip hazard. He had a white Berlingo or Partner van.

I just wondered if anyone knew when or who it was, or even had saved the pictures.

I have tried to do a search, but can't find anything. It would also appear that searches further back than 2009 are not being catered for at the moment. I think this was posted about 3 years ago.

The reason for my request is that it may help other members on here who could use an electric frost heater in their vans but have no driveway and are concerned about running an extension cable across the pavement.

Thanks

Spruce

You ought to have the Thunderbirds theme tune on in the van while setting it up.

I don't know who's van it is, It's a few years old I believe. I remembered seeing it in a post a few months ago and did a search and found it in a couple of minutes  :D
