Title: amphibious all-terrain fire unit
Post by: Clong on September 12, 2011, 01:25:42

This unit is for wetland/swamp fires or hard to reach forest fire
I apologize for the sticks on the hoses but I had an accident and the glue was still drying

VERY cool idea! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v321/luwerner/gif/thumbs-up.gif)
How did you "glue" the pump engines atop the water tank? And the water tank on the truck bed?

Maybe its just me, but isnt that water tank too heavy to be set this way at the edg of the back?
Otherwise, great idea!!!

I guess with the engine in front it counters the weight. I was just going by a picture i found on google.
