My chocks

[T bone]

So I borrowed the idea of the 4x4 and threaded rod and took it a little further. .... hope you like!!

I wanted to be able to tighten them down without any tools and came up with a t lock nut to help. I used the following to make 1 chock starting from bottom to top

24"x3/8 threaded rod
4x4 8"long on the short side of 30°angle 1/2 hole drilled thru
3/8 nut
3/8 lock washer
3/8 nut
3/8x2" washer
4x4 8"long on short side of 30°angle drill 3/8 hole thru then 1/2 hole 3" thru from bottom
3/8 t lock nut
Top 3" of rod bent over

looks like it works nice I just always have tools and set out my 3/4 in wrench and socket before I get the but that's a great idea

and on mine I just held the board up to the tires where I wanted it and traced the tire angle from the back

Nice job....a little something to call your own.

Great job! I got the stuff to make mine last week. Just need to get around to doing it.

Looks like it will work nicely.[emoji106]

Looks good and I bet it works as good as the $50 ones.

T-Bone: You inspired me into action!
I looked around the forums and saw several options.
Then I looked around my garage and realized I had the following:
- Left over piece of 4 foot long 4 x 4 treated post.
- Extra sets of 3/4 inch pipe clamps.
- Some old black pipe for which I had no use.

I put the following together this morning, and it didn't cost me anything new, except for my time. I made a set for each side of the travel trailer. I don't know how well it works until I'm laying in the TT bed at 2 AM and someone goes to the bathroom on the other end of the trailer. The pipe clamps make for easy tightening, although I'm guessing I'll need to whack the 4x4 with a hammer to loosen them when I want to take them off. Hopefully it will help dampen the bouncing.

Thanks for the inspiration!

Good work!
I am the ultimate procrastinator. Still have the stuff to make mine. Still haven’t made them. Was hoping to have them for this weekends trip. Not happening. Maybe I will make them before next weekends trip!
