There are still things missing but the list is getting more complete every day... and I should be buying frame materials next week...

And that is not counting the days when I was tired and mistake prone, and make 3, 4, 5, (6 once?) trips to Lowes/Home Depot to replace a piece of wood I cut one time too many, or ran out of pocket screws, or something like that!
I live in a unique spot. There are 3 Home Depots, a Lowes, and an Ace Hardware all within a minimum radius of 3.1 miles and a maximum radius of 3.3 miles from my house! I tend to go to the Lowes / Home Depot locations that are across the street from each other to minimize stock issues.
I love the look of the suicide doors, just remember when you are setting up camp you will have to walk around these doors if you use the open bay of the Grasshopper to haul stuff!
