Hello from On Canada

Postby Advant63 » Tue Jul 21, 2015 10:27 pm

Hello all,
I have just brought home a 6x12 v-nose and am turning it into a bike hauler/base camp. So far i have painted the floor with blk/blu sprinkles and a handful of grout for traction, insulated the ceiling and walls, run the wiring, painted the walls, installed a cabinet in the left v, a truck toolbox in the right v to act as the power centre/electric storage, installed a cable hatch and some e-track to tie down the bikes. I'm a bit pressed for time as we are leaving friday morning for a week in the algonquin area. I"ve only had the trailer just over a week so progress has been good. I still have to install the ceiling panels, finish the lighting and hang a little wire shelving above the power box on the right v for helmets and riding gear. I should be able to pull it together in the next two nights. Pretty basic but it has everything we need. My wife is already talking about upgrading the front half. :o

Hi Dave
He is from back east ....but where are you from?
Why is everybody so secretive about where and who they are????? :thinking:
The Forum is about sharing not guessing??????
Hate to even sound the least bit negative here.....but frustration can make the truth come out! :roll:

Wise decision for one so young ;)
Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day; teach a person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks.

Hey dave, sorry for not responding. I've been away in the trailer for the past week.
Great success, by the way.
I'm from Ilderton, just north of london ontario.
