Wow! Thanks for the kudos, everyone! Without this forum and your collective help and encouragement, none of it would've been possible.
MJ - My "inspector" thinks the trailer is pretty cool now, but when I've spent what he considers too much time on it, has uttered phrases such as "Do you love the teardrop more than me?", or "Trailer builders neglect their children".
No, you don't need to send the DCFS to our house - he thinks he's being neglected if he is only getting 98% of my attention, rather than 100%.
Tony - From the beginning of this project I'd been thinking of using Uniflex paint for the exterior, but now I can't bear the thought of covering the wood, so am scheming up trim ideas to hide my sins (screw holes and glue smears) and use CPES with something over the top for UV.
Doug - Thanks, since I consider your work to be the high standard against which all others are measured!
Duane - If I can do this, anybody can, as long as you have the determination to do so. It doesn't take special tools or skills (since I certainly didn't have them!) For me, however, it did take an exorbitant amount of planning.
M Olsen - I don't think we'll be able to make it up to Idaho for your event this year, but thanks for the invitation! The last time we were up to Redfish Lake was on our honeymoon, 21 years ago!
Julie - I'll have to admit that I've been jealous looking at your pics, too (back in the days of my trailer being 2D and yours being 3D!) Keep at it and we'll both get 'em done eventually!
Teresa - And I hope to see your trailer someday, too! (And yours, too, Sunny!) I'm sure we'll all finally meet one of these days!
Again, I appreciate everyones' congrats (especially all of you whose builds I've watched and admired - Bledsoe, Sonetpro, etc, etc) Thanks!
Jeanette
PS - now I gotta get back to work in the garage and finish this thing! I'm trying to beat the snow so I can vacate the garage (ie, my workshop) and get the car back in there so I don't have to shovel it off and scrape windows every morning! But then I have to put my teardrop out in the elements!!! Aaaarrgh!
