Nobody warned me..

Postby Larwyn » Mon Mar 07, 2005 6:11 pm

I was warned of the excitement I would feel when the walls of the trailer were finally standing upright on the trailer.

I was not warned that I would be banging my head on those 5 foot bar clamps, the top of the door opening, and the temporary spars....LOL

Still having lots of fun when I get to work on my trailer. And yes, I have learned to watch for those head bump hazards now... :lol:

Mike, do you recognize this profile yet, or did my Porter Cable scroll saw modify it beyond recognition... :thinking:

Is it a curved weekender?

Mike...

Yep, that's it Mike. The one you drew up somewhere between the weekender and the Lil Diner. I'll try to get a better pic of the profile soon. The pic in the avatar is the best I could do with without pulling it out in the rain and as you can see it aint quite closed in yet.... :D

Thanks for your input and influence in scraping my first profile. This one is working out great for what I wanted. I'm also working on the lower galley mount for the air conditioner which you drew up for the weekender (vented out the back below the hatch).
