HS. Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I mind in purchasing a large tin of nitromors last year for stripping layers of paint off of sandstone quoins, lent the remainder to a pal needing to strip a door, never got it back, had it been in the shed, i would have used it, nitromors will be getting purchased tomorrow, or when ever the mrs will let me out the house 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jdeere6910 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Looks fantastic James, all I would say is some rams for the back door would finish it off lovely. Seen some great custom built trailers built without them and I think they never look right 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stabliofarmer Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Not put any rams in yet Pat, they're next on the to do list but it will have ones on the back. If you look just under the screw for the back door there's a small peg sticking out to hold the door rams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
