Beat my 15 month build by 10 months... :thumbsup:


It's cause you put all that fancy-shmancy stuff on yours. It takes time to build a TD that is nicer than the average home.

But then again, maybe it took you so long because you are an Aggie. :thinking:

CD ;)


+2 on the Aggie part. I'm coming up on month 12 of the build and 15 months seems about right (if I use the rule that 90% complete is "done.")

Gig'em, :thumbsup:

I have done some refining work on CK2.

Image

I added a rug on the floor, and some curtains so I can change clothes without mooning anyone...

Image

I put some hooks in a few places for my lantern, and some clothing hooks...

Image

And, I got my divider panel for the pass-thru galley hole, featuring yours truly and my "sleeping compartment." ...

looking good CD. I especially like your divider :lol: :applause:

how did you like the pass through galley in actual use? I'm guessing since it's still there it works as planned.

The first camping trip did no require the pass-thru. I made that for cold weather, which we have not had.

Maybe I'll get to try it at LCG4.

Shaun they have this thing in Texas,and other places, called humidity when mixed with even slightly cold weather equals mighty uncomfortable conditions. Your *** will freeze off, trust me. High humidity and cold is worse than high humidity and heat.

Hmmm that suggests all sorts of interesting possibilities (the picture). We have been joking about a Harry Potter tent, Wrinkle in Time teserac idea, bigger on the inside than the outside. I can even see having changeable pictures e.g. spa, living room...

Man that devider looks funny! Now is that photoshop or a real printout slipped in there because it looks real! Oh and I like the accent lines on the side too! I know those aren't real though, but it looks kinda cool!

I am assuming your AC box vents through the floor do you have a pic of the underside? Did ya just put a screen on it or a prefab vent deal? Any kind of fan? Planovet just has it open on the bottom and says it has never over heated so I was wondering it you had the same deal.

oh I know all about humidity, I was raised in the Willamette Valley. Also spent 5 years in Wyoming. Thats cold. It alll relative you might say.

what I'm curious about is if the coffee maker puts much humidiity inside the trailer and if it will cause any condensation inside the hatch or if the vent will alleviate it.

I did the image in Photoshop. The bedroom is from a photoshoot I did for Lamps-Plus, and I traced Bryan in Illustrator, and put him in his own layer in PS, on top of the bedroom pic.

I had the PS image printed out and mounted on Coroplast, with a protective film over it.

The AC vents out the side. Go back a few pages, and you can see a photo. The vents are just below where my side table attaches.
