Andy down there, told us no one was signing up for anything other than state certified or hot classes. They also had a conflict with a couple of other conferences that week so I guess there wasn't the interest. Maybe next year, times are tough. Take care

Thanks for joining CSF (Common Sense Firefighting)
It's about decision making on the fire ground. Add your 2 cents like the rest of when ever you can.
I see we are almost neighbors

Our 12' Box is 22" X 22" inside height. I believe that the 10' box is the same height. The Roof Sim, is 10' X 10' it also turns into a platform, so that we can crawl under it. We also used peg board to drop wires through for intaglement situations. Anyways, if you want to see these just let me know.

We got alot of the wood donated from Kapers building materials after that it was simple. I would check there first, before you go dumpster diving.

At 8:10pm on April 28, 2008, Tom Fentress said…: Hey Mike, Nice to see you on here. Hope everything is good in your neck of the woods.
