Hey, hey now. Let's focus here! There is a bug out camper being built. No distractions allowed.

This is just an accessory for when he is bug-n-out to help get distracted

Not that there aren't already enough distractions .. I think the only one around here concerned with having a soak is little Django ...

Back to this ... June 1 is right around the corner ! With the promise of Nice weather on the way , we’re looking forward to getting this done ... Got the studio cleared for the skeleton build ... Once we get the OSB for the floor , and attach it to the trailer , it will be a simple matter to attach the skeleton and cover it with the foam ... (beadboard ) ... Not worried about that BB Foam because the skeleton alone will have Much inherent strength by itself ... That and a judicious use of Fiberglass drywall tape and a heavy canvas should insure a tight, rigid , and long lasting structure .. yet Light enough not to bog down the old 6 cyl. Shooting for < 1500# AUW ... with EVAC gear ...

So, after I got up yesterday afternoon (new jobs, I work oh dark hundred to about 9:30, then grab some shut eye until about 3, so I can work 17:00 until...) I was reading through this thread and the LOML pops in to the computer room. I happen to have the page with the interior of the bottle and Genie showing. One thing led to another and I showed her your sketches for the foamstream, and I swear I saw the lightbulb turn on over her head! Now I just have to figure out how to swing the money for it!

... and the upholstery ....

[KCStudly]

It must be done! It has to be done. Someone must do it.

I originally recommended it for GPW because he is a proponent of lots of cushions and has an eye for color and fabrics. Seemed like a natural.

But I don't care who "steals" the idea. It must be done. Just do it!

Hi GPW,

[I posted this link in Roly Nelson's Blimp build in the
Nontraditional section but thought you'd like to check
it out also.]

This is a self-propelled 'Art Piece' shaped like a huge
capsule/torpedo, with twelve segments, CNC cut.

The construction pics are @ 3/5ths down on the page:

That’s pretty COOL eh !!!

Driving down my street (dirt road) , I finally saw a trailer that looks like the FoamStream , many trailers in fact ... HORSE Trailers ... several in the neighborhood ... Must have been a subconscious thing ... Nothing is original eh ???

[GPW]

April already !!! I just HAVE to get this finished ... might have to do something Drastic and spend money ... Hurricane season is right around the corner

Rain with Names are coming... any progress (Just trying to help...)

Just getting over last years tree falling on the house active season incident ...
