I managed to get a job last year for a couple months in a steel mill in New Bedford, MA= 50th year of work in my trade. Good luck on your conversion. Working on my build has been a great retirement project for me.

Mine was not "done" when I took it on its maiden voyage. I used it without a head liner for a couple seasons. I have added things, changed things etc. If I was in your position, I would make a list of mission objectives, prioritize them, and let the level of "done" fall where it may. Dont let your "fun" project stand in the way of a good time. Stop on occasion and have that beer while admiring your handywork. Your little camper will be your travel companion long after this deadline.Chief-John wrote:friz wrote:Should be a cake walk for someone with your background. I did the same thing.

Friz, Your teardrop is a work of art! So, 2017? Happy 5th yr anniversary! 6 mos would have been a more relaxed pace... I gave myself like 26 days?

Going to be early June before we get on the road. I'm an old biker, now retired and doing the cage thing. Just wondering how the teardrop pulls behind the bike.
Why does everyone type in such a small font?[
