    Default Motorhome made with Tassie Oak! Impressive

    Check out this motorhome built fully out of Tassie Oak! Very good woodworking skills. And i believe the owner has dropped the price to $275,000

    Good question BobT I tried the obvious and it obviously didn't work so I went to advance reply file attachment,browse found the photo I wanted,then used photoshop to resave it as a file under 100kb size click open on the file attachment then scroll down the screen to (Additional Options) Attach Files manages attachments Attachment 28879 If you see a picture attachment it worked if not I just wasted 20min.:confused: There must be an easier way???

    Hey mods!!! How come this blatant used car ad has survived in "Inspirational Web Sites" for so long.

    I love the bit about "The aerodynamics of this motorhome are superb, with no wind resistance what-so ever. " Yeah, right! Oh! and only 250,000Km since the motor was rebuilt - just run-in then...

    And yes, toss it messrs. Mods at large!

    Id love to see that go over the pits here Bob!!

    See thats what I thought he was talking about something MADE out of wood... ah well... some mothers do ave em as they say

    I would love to know where the one I fell assovertit over a few years back huge ruddy thing a bloke over east built from an old 6x6 Inter fire truck body... "big motha" or somesuch... all checkerplate on the outside huge patio on the back brilliantly mind boggling interior... bloke was a photographer of some sort had a webpage and all... basically got the old truck and rebuilt it from the gound up remodeling as he went even had a pivot system underneath so he could take it ANYWHERE... brillaint setup... he came over through Mandurah while we were there but I missed him by a day (typical me eh? ) anyway those buses are a dime a dozen even the majorly overpriced ones are nothing to write home about a caravan with a motor is all ... but something special with something truely inspiring about it or its build? or made of wood like Bobs? yeah Id love to see it... but this? buggar all real timber in the thing!
