Re: My 1st 68 panel

Today I was the one armed sign hanger . Took the truck out on its maiden voyage to install a new sign for the local school. I installed a wired remote on the boom so I can run it from the ground without having to be up on the truck. That way I can control the sign by myself while it is in the air. I made the control box from some scrap aluminum I had sitting here. Here is a pic of the remote box as well as the sign it helped install today. Everything worked out real well.

Instead of having to put a hydraulic pump on the truck engine I went with an 11hp electric start honda with a 2 stage pump to run the boom. The entire structure is modular as well so if I need to take it off for some reason it is just 4 bolts and a battery power wire and it comes right off the truck with my big boom truck.

Speedy recovery for your wife as well.

Richard

Most women like the strong, silent type… Fortunately for me, my wife prefers the out-of-shape, mouthy type.
