Well, after a year of occasional nights and weekends, the tear is really starting to take shape. With just a few more big things to get done, I just might make it to the Last Gasp of Summer this year. Well, that an a fishing trip or two (I hope).

Looking great. You're a lot closer than I am and I plan to camp in it for the LCGIII :?

Thanks all for the kind words. Sorry for the delay in responding, I posted the note then ran away on a business/vacation trip. :o

Levi. The exterior is three coats of CPES from Rot Doctor and then three more coats of an oil based exterior paint recommended by the local paint place (the Paint Spot). The white was applied with a roller, but I had to sand after the second coat because the rollers left a lot of fuzz in the paint. The third coat was applied with a foam roller to keep it from looking like I painted a rug.
