I still don't have a trailer, still debating between a HF or a NT 4x8. I eventually want to upgrade to 15" tires, and think the NT trailer will be better supported with parts for this. I do know that I want my build to be 60" wide on the exterior. I have some components on order now, like LED lights for the interior, 14" ceiling fan, charge controller, etc.
Since I'm set on the 60" width, I thought it was safe to build my front wall. I used 15/32 plywood for the exterior, 1x2 furring strips, and 5mm luan. I figured the front wall will take the brunt of highway abuse, so wanted a fairly durable section there. I plan on side walls to be 1/4 plywood, along with the hatch and one of the roof panels. The other roof panel that secures the solar panels will probably be the 15/32 material again.

I had to spend a solid hour digging out our table saw from the garage, and finding other items. Then had to buy a new pneumatic finish nailer. Will probably have to buy a new circular saw (currently a death trap with tapped power cord about 80% of it's length), and jig saw (deck won't stay flat). Or maybe I'll just buy a Roto-zip, I read one of forums here that was all a member had used to build his TD.
