Those drip caps are nice. I have just been cutting a piece of 1inch angle aluminum to the right length and screwing it into the side and silicone sealing where aluminum meets trailer side. Seems to work well.

But I think you are right. Windows just not complete without them. I also think they do a great job of diverting water around windows so less opportunities for a leak if seals start to weather.

i'm very happy with the interlocking foam workout matt, it's so nice on the feet and adds some insulation and sound deadening :)

i'm trying to figure out what size of awnings i want so i took an old 9x12 tarp, folded one edge over a length of cord and fed it into the keder rail, it was a pain to feed it through but it worked quite well. i have enough keder welt to do 3 sides but i don't want to risk wasting any until i know the sizes i wantImage

it got too cold outside for the paint to cure properly so i had to take it all apart, bring it into the house to paint.

Cool trailer . Might be able to sew rope in 2 sides of the tarp and make it so you can slide in a shorter side if needed.
