Sequoia Build in Foam

[CampsALot]

Will update my project here,

Today,
-- Cut out the opening for the front window
-- Installed wooden framing for the door in the rear wall
-- Glued three 2X8 panels together for the roof.
I need to install wiring, lights and pre cover the ceiling (roof), before installing it on the trailer.

Not a bad way to spend three hours after work.

My little travel trailer LOOKS like a little travel trailer !!!

Not much getting done today.

It's the family barbecue day. (Which is good too...)

I did have to take the trailer out of the garage to get the kayaks down.
I couldn't resist the opportunity to see how it looked, (Will look?), connected to the Jeep.

I like it.
Tomorrow will be a busy day on the trailer...

Moving Along ...

I didn't get as much done this weekend as I'd hoped, but I still made progress.

I decided to change the shape of the wheel wells to make it easier for covering with the canvas.
Thats not as hard as it sounds when using foam. I glued the original cutouts back in, wait a while for the glue,,, cut the new shape back out.
Went from round to the angled look. To be honest, I think it suits the trailer better.

Finished the wheel wells and filled all the 'openings' left here and there with 'foam in a can'.
WOW, my foam trigger finger was working extra well today !! ( 31'C 94'F, in the shade may have had something to do with it too)

I decided to change the shape of the wheel wells to make it easier for covering with the canvas.

Now it will match the jeep better too. If you did not know, the trapezoid wheel well is a Jeep trademark as well as the 7 slot grill.
