I just try to make the videos the best I can, I know whatever music I add won’t appeal to anyone, but in some formats it’s kinda weird to have long builds with sped up sound or no sound. It’s actually hard to find music that TH-cam will let you play without muting the audio of the entire video over copyright issues. Not sure if your comment was sarcastic or genuine, but until you start editing and uploading videos, it’s easy to take things like the soundtrack for granted.
Hey man I building a dump trailer myself I can only load maybe 3500 lbs or so… I have the hinge and I building a scissor lift I was thinking of using a electric trailer jack in place of hydrolics what do you think
Those electric trailer jacks are really, really strong, but very slow. I have one on my camper and it’s a tongue heavy beast, but it takes several minutes to cycle it up and it only lifts about 10”. That would be painfully slow and may not be enough travel for your hoist. Check Craigslist, marketplace and junkyards for trucks with a tailgate lift, rob the pump and lines and solenoids, then all you need is a single acting cylinder (and you can find them somewhat cheap used by themselves often.). I’ve even seen guys use engine hoist cylinders, although they usually aren’t the most high quality.
damn that music really adds to the whole experience
