Some of you may remember the little single axle grain truck we bought this fall for real cheap. Dad has been working on completely redoing the brakes on it on rain days when we can't farm. It had a metal plate that was 8X10 inches that slid up in the back for a grain door. I can only imagine how long that would take, as it was the only way to get the grain out. Dad mentioned needing to make or acquire a better door. I went over and took some measurements for size, and this is what I came up with. 42" long, 12" high, built totally from scraps I had been saving for "projects". The hinge assy was a bit of a bugger to figure out, but believe it or not, it took me 2 tries to get it where it would open and close completely with the handle in the correct position. I'm going to make a better handle holder for the open position, probably a flip latch. I called dad and told him it was done, and he came and picked it up while I was at work. Said it fit perfectly in the hole I cut for it, all the countersunk screw heads were in the right location, and works perfectly. Makes a guy feel good to build something useful. Ross
