[Dusty-NZ]

Hahahaha I drive down Lineside road every day on my way to work.
Do you have kids at Rangiora High?

Used to have , but they have grown up and left now.

re your TTT get together , would you consider the Hurunui Forest camp? just a quiet place , eh.

[felixx]

Sounds nice, but no crayfish there! LOL
I went dumpster diving tonight and got a whole lot of timber for roof spars

I have no pride

[felixx]

Hi team
Well I have had a big big week and hopefully have a new job (find out in the next 36 hours)
In the mean time, tomorrow I cut foam and put inner skin on one side (and do the other on friday)

Sides go up in the weekend and spars go in

Hopefully galley basics might happen too (Keeping it simple for now)

[Wobbly Wheels]

Congrats on the new job Felix ! Fingers crossed...

[Sheddie]

Good luck with the job
Good to here things are happening on the TD, but need for proof.

[felixx]

Well lots on
got shortlisted for job, had 2nd interview today
Find out monday! Thanks for the kind wishes
HOWEVER
I did this tonight:



I will cut the edges flush once I have done both sides
(Using Sheddies smooth as hot knife)

Tomorrow night the sister in law is coming over so I will get the other side done, side cit smooth and interior skins in place

[felixx]

Well I started cutting foam flush, as per sheddies method!


My crappy old batterycharger gave up the ghost 1/4 the way thru'


I will 'ahem' Borrow a powersupply from work

[felixx]

Also I brought these online today

Solar powered fan that will run overnight too.. will be jamming this in the ceiling


some 3W Led Lights for:
Red one for a night light for the kids inside cabin
2 red ones for under the galley in the evening
2 white ones, unsure why


Some LED Dimmers, just in case:


Some Puck Lights

(they are only 2W but 3 should give enough light

Also 1m LED Strip (wharm white) for the galley.

Thats electronics sorted except 3 USB ports (2 in cabin and one in galley)

They will all be 12V with the plan to buy a solar panel for xmas,

I got some of those small led lights for reverse lights, they are pretty bright! I think mine might be 5w though.
Cheap as chips on ebay

[felixx]

Yeah
I figured I don't need lots and lots of lights
And as they are unknown quantities in terms of output I got oodles of em

[Sheddie]

The battery charger I used was a 50 year old lump of metal that the father in law was throwing out. It has a big heavy transformer in it, and I put in a slightly larger fuse.
Otherwise try a flattish battery.

[felixx]

well it has been a busy week
I got a new job, I start in between 5 and 8 weeks.

I also did this:




I need to cut the door out! oops
