Again thanks for the nice comments. Hiker Girl, love the drop painted to match the tow vehicle even if it is an enemy Honda, sorry, I'm a GM employee.
I need a new Avatar. I'd put my dog up there but she doesn't look much like me. She's the skinny one.

WOW..........beautiful.........I love the way you utilized all your space.

Do you happen to have a pictue of the shower when it is ready to use?
I would like to borrow your ideas when I get Charles to build me a cargo trailer with very basic living area for craft shows out of town.

Can't wait to see the next build

"Do you happen to have a pictue of the shower when it is ready to use?"

Sorry Linda, I don't have a pic but it's simple

I throw the dinette table on the bed. I lift off the false floor under it. I have a 3/4" PVC water pipe square frame with 2 uprights stored in the shower floor. The 90s and Tees are glued only to 1 tube so it breaks down. It plugs into brackets under the dinette seats. 2 shower curtains sewn together store in a tip out cubby behind the front seat back, I hang it on the pvc and get clean. If I'm not being clear I can post a sketch.

Change in plans, the next one was going to be a Big Benroy for the maximum floor space usage for sleeping and galley. I looked at Doug Hodders beautiful trailers with the wife the other night. She oooed and aaaahed about the wood work. Now it is going to have a Kenskill profile that, although built in the 40's, comes off as being older. I will try to incorporate some Art-Deco wood-work features in the inside. Should blend well. I played around with the frame I have working and decided it will work. Build thread to follow.

I think that will be a wonderful combination Jim! I'm looking forward to seeing what you build. Glad you got some ideas from me, that's flattering! Given the quality of your first trailer, it'll be a honey! Doug
