A 12 ft. FEATHERLITE conversion

Jim,

Well, 8' wide, but only 12' long is still in the "small" category.

I wouldn't want to tow it, especially not down Baja on that narrow road. Must be okay for roads in Wales.

Trolly top anyone? Is it a mortuary trailer or a madam's trailer? I have no idea...and I wouldn't want to tow this one to Baja either.

What do you think Jim? 8 1/2 wide?

Dave,

Porter, not lager?

I would guess a train car maybe ?


Question: At what night time temp in your trailer do you generally turn your heater on ?
When it drops into the 60,50,40,30's. ? And how warm do you like it to be 68 ?



Can't seam to get answer from folks.....
To determine how well their insulation works
I can go down to 30 deg F - without using a heater...
Personally unless it drops below 49 Inside I'm ok - then I get sick below 49.
Everyone says their insulation works great - with their heaters


Thanks Jerry

Jerry,

No. It's a trailer built from scratch.

Heat my trailer? Nope. I don't go in it when it's cold. Moisture from exhaling gets behind the block foam, condenses and runs down the inside of the aluminum walls, which leads to warping the plywood sheets of the inside of the trailer. I'm a fair weather camper only. Not kidding. Had I spray foamed the walls instead of using block foam, it would not be a problem to spend time in it in the cold weather.

It was 17* F here yesterday morning. Saturday it's suppose to get down to 10* F with a high for the day of 31* F.

Prem, Howdy;

When I used to work on aircraft (another lifetime ago), we used to have
some small vent tabs that helped to cut down on condensation (promotes
corrosion which is a bad thing for aircraft), went on a search to see if I could find
some and ran across this;

Some kind of technical info for helping keep condensation from forming in metal
buildings.
I'll keep looking for those vent tabs and let you know what I find.

Nice CT! That sure looks like a good place to clear the cobwebs out of a feller's head.

Definitely a nice place to relax and soak in the hot water coming out of the mountain, 100+ miles from the closest city. It was the second time we've been there. Definitely worth the long drive to the middle of nowhere.

Sweeeet! Hows the fishing on the John Day there?

[Prem]

It sucks. What also sucks is the hassle and cost of a fishing license. For the cost of a fishing license in Oregon, I can get three nights in my hotel room in Mexico. And there the fishing doesn't suck. Here's a picture of the last three fish I caught without needing a license:
