+1 on your bracket design. :thumbsup:

I may borrow that detail for a small fold-up utility trailer of my mine that has floppy fenders.

I did swipe the frame attachment using the spring bolts from CDFNCHICO.

Heck, keep 'em wondering how you "got away" with no fenders.

Glad to help. I sure learned a lot reading other build threads before diving in.

Didn't some come (or were built) without fenders originally? I guess Mr. Vet would say "Tell it to the judge" :lol:

I would let you off with a warning, especially since you are a member of the forum. :lol:

The DPS might not be so accommodating... :roll:

An air conditioner and a tale of two doors

OR - Monty, I'd like Door #2

A had a donor candidate knocking around the house.

I also had a lot of scrap wood left from the building. I even had a second set of door hinges at the ready.

Laying it out.

Before you even ask, of course Gravity Clamps were used.

True to her name, the Princess Helper helps out.

We did take a few breaks in the action.

Not to be left out of the fray, Creepy Cat supervises.

Why, yes that is a water heater box in the background. Where do you think I got the scrap of pipe insulation for the edge of the door?

Doorpipe insulation in use.

I didn't have any door size pieces of red oak left. I did have pieces of BC plywood. BC is not very pretty. Baltic Birch is. I had several door size pieces. You see where this is going.

Wedged in. I've had these door shims for years, and used them repeatedly for a number of things. This is the first time they've been used on a door.

Just hangin' around.
