Off to a good start!

Postby Graniterich » Fri Sep 19, 2014 9:33 am

I decided last week to build my TD. My wife is not the camper type, but is supportive of my dream. I need to watch the out flow of cash to keep it that way. On Wednesday, A guy at work who I've talked to about the TD, says he has something for me, digs out a brand new Powersonic 35A SLA battery, and says we don't need it it is yours. I will be using very little juice, a few hours of LED light, maybe a fan, and tunes, so this is great. Yesterday my Wife emails me, and asks if I need any insulation, of course I do. She brings home enough one inch insulation to do whole TD, and some nice carpet squares, and...... a slide out server rack (perfect for stove slide out). Her work was throwing all away!

And today I pick up HT 4x8 trailer :D

Looks like you are ready to start your build thread. We love pictures so go ahead and learn to put them on here, so we can watch your progress. .......my build has been very slow but I can see the end. My build is in the foamie section. Good luck!!

Granite, sounds like you and I are in the same boat. My wife isn't the camping type but said that if it had an A/C she would go, and I had to take my time building in order to keep the financial officer happy (which happens to be her as well) :lol:

Good luck!!

I hope to be starting soon as well and plan on picking up my trailer in the morning. See ya in the build thread section :thumbsup:
