Wolfgang's 2&2 built updated December 25, 2010

[Wolfgang92025]

Here is an update for the weekend.
It was pretty productive.

Made a drawer for the inside tall cabinet.
Also gave the weight set a work out.



Drawer installed



View from driver side with the drawer open




Cabinet above opens to from a platform for small electric heater for those chilly nights.



Also bought the aluminum for the trailer skin.



Cut the first piece to skin the hatch.



Yup, it will take some polishing to get the water stains out...

That's about it............

Beautiul cabinet work.

Well, another two weeks are gone.
Ended up spending 4 days last week working in Milwaukee. Needless to say, that means I could not work on the trailer.

Worked some more on the skin, and got the rock guard mounted.



Also got the Fantastic Fan mounted in place and sealed up.
Outside view



Inside view



Worked on the electrical. Wiring harness is inside the bottom of closet. None of the wires are marked. Better not loose the paper with all the wiring data.


Need to vacuum out the mess in the bottom.

Got the charger, converter installed and wired. Tried out the fan and everything works.



Also made one of the eyebrows (rain guard) for the door. Still need to make the other one and seal and install them.



Well, that's it for today. Unfortunately I will be in Milwaukee for 3 days again next week, so work is really cramping my time to "get R done"

Wow! You've gotten a lot done! It is looking great. I never thought of attaching wiring connections on the inside top of the cabinet that way. ...Clever.

Thanks Burke, Yes there are two LED light strips (high/low) hidden behind the walnut fascia. Still need to glue the other ones on.

Thanks for all the kind comments.

Some parts look really good, others I'm not real happy with, but I guess that's true for just about very built. I'm not sure if it will be done for IRG III, but it will be done enough to go............. I hope

Blinking marvelous Wolfgang
Loving the two tone wood. Fantastic finish.

What are your walls made up of ?

What are your walls made up of ?

Thanks Jackdaw,
It's a sandwich construction. 1/4" on the exterior, 3/4" center with insulation and wooden support structure and 1/8" inside wall.
Inside is plain maple with 3 or 4 coats of varnish. Exterior bottom is walnut, top half is maple with red oak trim all with 3 or 4 coats of varnish.
