thanks for the nice comment Doug & Bill

The ac is not for camping on the red woods. More for stopping along the way and spending a night in comfort. The Central Valley and other parts out in the West get plenty hot during the summer.
The 2&2 design gives us the space we wanted inside and I really like the shape.

Bill,
Just take your time and you be surprised how good it will turn out.

One the road again..............

Yup not at home, bummer.
Can't work on the tear.

But I did work on it earlier this week and here is a pic for you.

Image

Lights are mounted, but not yet wired. Hatch shocks should be at my house by now. Mattress, brake controller and license plate light will be there about next Wednesday or so. Boy, time is running out.

Got some time in on the trailer over the weekend.

Played with the trailer wiring.
Hooked up the running lights to a battery charger.

Image

Fender is held in place with clamps, hope to have it on permanently by the 4th of July . Also found out I had wired the license plate to the brake lights. changed one wire it it was right.

Brake lights work too.

Image


Also installed the rain guard over the door and mounted the porch lights.

Image

While I was traveling, got the hatch struts delivered. Took a couple of tries, but works real nice now.

Image

That's all for now.......

Thanks Whtknight.

It's getting closer to being done.
Jim, my next door neighbor help with the installation of the round window. I really dreaded that, buy with his help done in about two hours.
Then it was time for a well deserved cold brew. :beer:

Here is a pic...............

Thank's Sharon

Had a neighbor's sons baseball coach stop by last night, he really like the trailer. :thumbsup:
Right now I fell pretty good that it will be ready for the road to IRG III. Not done, but it will be rolling.

See you at IRG III.

Amazing progress, love the tongue box, I have decided to give mine a skip, as it seems to foul the profile, but doing a pretty shadow curve looks great, maybe I will try that some time.
Greetings from England.

Rian.


Hoping to get it all done in time.

Nice work Wolfgang. I was wondering what your plan was to cover the a/c - nice choice.

Thanks guys............

I'm not sure if the tongue box will be in its final configuration for the trip to IRG III.
But the good news is the doors with windows and locks installed are in place. Finished the trailer wiring and tested it with our pick-up. everything works. Now I need to get a wire harness for the TV. Another thing that will done just in time. Went and took my mother and wife to get curtain material. Mom was a seamstress for about 30 years, so making the curtains is a apiece of cake for her.

Will take some more :pictures: tomorrow.

That's all for today.

Only 11 days till IRG III
