Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

Flatbedder in training!

 

Atleast u wont have to deal with tailgaters ! How the heck do u back up into a truckstop with that much overhang ?

 

Decided to give these another shot.

 

Looks like $$ in the bank to me.

 

Will your hook fit in the hole in the arm?

 

Yeah but those holes dont go through so i cant get both sides attached with just 1 binder, id like to get it up there so the chains arent pinching the tracks... u know of a way?

 

The only way I can think of would be to run the chain down thru the rail, under some spools then back up across the deck to do the same on the other side. Problem is the chain might want to catch somewhere throughout all of that and leave a little slack somewhere. And your binder would be all or partially under the machine ahead of it, which would be a giant pita.

I carry a half dozen snap binders because they are cheap and take up very little room.

 

The only way to park is if you have a wide open field behind and a straight shot exit ahead. Cannot park between two trucks and right or left out of the spot lol.

But in this case, I loaded and drove about 6 hours more or less and unloaded.

 

This is how I would chain.

1 chain
1 binder
Straight over roof.

 

Picked up a load of coated rebar. I don't know who the hell thought this was a good loading pattern, but it's not.

Well at least it's all gone now. Covered in 30 inches of snow in PA.
