Thanks guys. I still have to trim the wood around the hatch area and place the seal. Probably have to adjust on the hatch to make it fit just right. I also received my diamond plate for the front, it will really look nice when that goes on. Still have to paint the rest of the trailer, place the vent, figure out how to hold up the hatch and install my 110 volt plug and charge wire. Ordered my mattress this week and already have my stove so it shouldn't be too long before our first trip. :thumbsup:

Hey everybody, I know it has been a while but I am almost finished. All I have left is the hatch vent and I will probably put in a 12 volt line to charge the iPad. I am taking it to my brothers house at Thanksgiving for a trial run. Here are some pics.

If you mean the size of the sleeping area, it is 47x72.

Thanks for all of the nice comments.
