Trailer Build continues...

Well, we are coming along.  We have the four walls up and are working on getting the roof on.  We have made the ribs out of plywood glued together for it is stronger than wood and will not warp.  Denis's reading material that he lent us us an amazing resource.  He also lent us a large bag of clamps.  Without those the trailer would have been impossible to build.

Here is our first set of photos since the last post:

 As you can see, we have the lower walls up. 

 Our grandson Satchel came one day to help us!

 What you see here is the front of the trailer and all the walls are up.  In the centre we have put a support for the centre of the ceiling  We are making the support into a cabinet.

 This is a splice for the joints of the ceiling where the bendable plywood meets the firm plywood..  this consists of two 2''X2" with a piece of plywood 2" strip all glued and screwed together.

Here is a look at our trailer from the door side.  Things are moving along.

 Here are the plywood ribs that will hold the arch of the trailer up.  We have made six ribs.

 Here is a look at our trailer from the back window.

Satchel is our little helper.

Today we have made the arch supports that will be against the walls and follow the shape of the curves.  We also made more ribs out of plywood.  We will continue to waterproof the window cut outs before we place the windows in. 

Because rain is in the forecast, we will continue work in the Garage and Rick will start the wiring.  All is good and we should meet our deadline.  Until next time...
