Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

I have one wall completed! I would have two, but I was a complete idiot and made two identical walls instead of a mirror image. How is that for a confession? I can attest that while I could pull Titebond II glued boards off Luan with minimal issues for reuse, if you use Gorilla Glue all you could do is destroy the 1X2 frame boards. Strong Stuff!

Here is a picture of the basic outline:

Boy is it slow going!

Looking cool!

And gee--why does this mistake sound familiar? Who did the same exact thing to his SKINS?

At least you didn't have to go out and buy another piece, like I did!

Also, what's with the two cutouts in the wood frame? (I went to your gallery.) Both for storage? And you still have to cut the floor deck for these?

Ira,

Rest Assured I did have have to go buy anther sheet of Luan while being laughed at by the wife!

The holes are for the storage areas. You can see the installed boxes in a few of the later pictures. I just haven't got around to taking a picture of them from the top. I had a sheet of Hardboard on the trailer covering them to prevent the Gorilla glue from making too much of a mess and or gluing them shut.

I kinda' did the same thing. I was cutting them out so the ripped out edge would be on the inside but alas I don't know left from right sometimes. I'm just going to cover the ripouts with edging.
Peace

I didn't make that mistake. I carefully put my luan skins face to face so that when I cut them out, they were mirror images. Then, I proceeded to cut out the door opening in one pair while clamped together. Problem? Well, I only have one door. But, I put the cutout piece back in place with frame backing to join it with the main piece. I just have one joint too many on one side.

We all make mistakes...I know I've made more than my share.
