My Mini 18 is complete
« on: April 13, 2015, 08:15:11 AM »
Thanks @Troy , @pbe gummi bear and @Craig

It's not red like everyone elses, I went single wheel with mine which seems to be sturdy enough.

18 OTG converted to a mini 18.

Awesome job. I was showing my wife pictures of these yesterday and she told me I should build one. Then I had to remind her that my kids are all taller than I am now.

Cajun 18" stacker may be my next item on the list, I think @Troy said he was getting one for his.

Very cool L.B.. A stacker would take it to the next level.

I saw Troys post and said the same thing. I gotta make one of those. Of course I had an 18 laying around I wasn't using!

Is it possible to make a mini 22? I'd like to make one out of my spare black 22.  Any idea what dimensions to cut the legs and triangle down to?

So who's going to be the first to make a mini ranch?

this is incredibly easy to do I followed Troy's instructions the front leg was 20 inch long as took off about 35 to 40 % about 7.5 inches of the 20.

I think the same could apply to the 22 incher.  If it is 24 inches long(IDK how long it is) take off 9 inches, you would take off the same on the top of the two back bars as well.

With the triangle cut the outside triangle and make it fit.

@pbe gummi bear what do you think a mini 22?
