Thumbs up to Brett B
« on: April 12, 2014, 05:23:30 PM »
After seein Bretts tent pegs at Knockwood and how well they worked, I asked him to make me some.. :)
So he did   :cup: :cup: Inc painting and welding on some chain links to hook the guide ropes to :D

While at it, he made me a rear work light to mount on the spare wheel bracket.
This thing is a work of art!

This all included fitting drilling, coffee, and wiring right up to the dash to the switch

Will get some photos in the fark soon to show how well it works.. Brett has some photos of it fitted

Even with all the probs with his health, this is the kind of bloke Brett is.. :cup: :cup: :cup:

So massive thanks to Brett..
I O U some stuff that I'll bring to knockers

While there we talked spotlights, and I showed him the light bar I got off McGirr, it fits his bar really well...
I said take it and pay me when you can, but been thinking, hes helped plenty of people out I think he can keep it. Early birthday present. Make the most of it mate.  Better pay McGirr now... ;)

He's a very special bloke. We need more like him that help fellow swaggers instead of blokes who like to argue a point on here

Yet again the typical swagger ethics shine through,  this is what makes this forum a bright place to hang out with lots of bright sparks

Great work Brett. Double the pat on the back considering the clientele!  >:D

But seriously it is great to hear of members helping out others. Proof that all is not lost in this world (no pun intended) and that there are some humans left in the world, and members of this forum  :cup:
