Apparently, I did not seal Itty-Bitty as well as I thought. She/he/it has developed cancer (a serious case of side wall de-lamination, not the masonite roof). I'm going to use her the way she is as long as possible; but in the mean time I've been playing with designs to rebuild her. Those who know me, know my affinity for the 40" wide trailer built for one person. I plan on re-using the same trailer frame. The design I'm currently playing with is the Midget shrunk to fit.... kind of a Mini-Midget. Which brings me to the point of this missive. Preliminary drawings show the trailer body being approx 4'6" wide (over the wheels). I would like to make the hatch in from the edges about 8" on each side. I'm drawing a complete blank on how to frame and seal the edges. Any thoughts/input would be greatly appreciated.
Just the rough drafts so far....
(I was able to figure out a way to even squeeze in a small a/c unit that Itty Bitty should have had right from the git-go!!)
