I waited two days for pl adhesive to dry on the last two spars the very back double oak spar is clamped, so call three attached. I was going to attach two more today, and wait two more days, and repeat. When I pushed up to pencil in the spar location everything was close to being in the right place, so I pushed it into place and penciled them all. Couple of tubes of pl, and some good luck. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!

Recycled polyethylene insulation from packing materials, lower r value, but free and in Southern California camping is mild.

Today I got the eighth inch luan, put on roof, and put hot towels on it. The straps tightened up nicely. Not sure how long to leave it wet. Hopefully it will dry with the correct shape, I have heard of this as training the plywood

So far build cost is $1047, my goal is to keep costs as low as possible, disclaimer, I already had invertor, solar panel, Battery was free. This doesn't count the 150+ hours of love!
