Considering the short timer I gave my self at the beginning of this build and I was doing well, because I was mostly building the same trailer I had built before except for the round front. Then Doug brought up the Trolley idea and then I was in a new world
Leaning new things and how to do them.
Steve B helped me build the doors on the boxkite my first trailer (5 yr build) and now the cross bow started in 2013 or 14 and now it is 2017.
The build stopped but the drawings and ideas kept flowing. I even tried 15 min. builds for a while but life had other curves for me and the build stopped. I have one more thing to do for the Los Osos sewer and maybe I can resume. My wife will not let me retire so I keep working a job too.
Here is where I am at.
1. Doors need to be put together and window wholes cut, door nobs be put on, hinges installed. Have all parts.
2. Rear hatch is ready for the outside skin need to buy wood for it. have locks Wiring is ready on hatch.
3. Spare tire was to go on front but now I have metal to mount it under the carriage near the front.
4. Trolley top is built but the window coverings I think I have finally figured out.
I want to keep the plastic and plan to cut out a wood frame with hinges at the bottom and The wood frame would copy the plastic shape only bigger to reinforce the plastic.
5. The back of the trolley top will have fans from computers and a plastic lid to keep cold air out when fans are not in use.
6. The Galley is designed but no where started.
7. Some wiring needed under carriage for road lights. but lights are installed until I have the saddle bag sides made to replace the basic rear trailer lights.
my thinking is if I can get the basic trailer made and licensed, I can take it out camping before the complete trailer is done
this was I will better know what is missing and the add ons that are missing can be improved.
8. I need to build the wall between the galley and the cabin.
9. under the rear I plan to build a box to hold a table to aid my wife in her cooking and clean up.
I the time I have been working on this trailer the things that have changed. LED's have improved, Sound systems no longer need wires but lots of small batteries, Solar have jumped leaps and bounds, Laser cutting systems, and 3 d printers for a start.
Trailers have changed in so many ways and yet still look basically the same. Soon Siri will trouble shoot your trailer.
