Box Kite New ideas for my sleepable trailer

Postby Ron Dickey » Thu Sep 20, 2007 9:56 pm

I am Stating a new section for the decoration and utilitary needs to enjoy this trailer.

Rotating kitchen is on the books now. the slide out swing around idea I had at first has chances of Kinking the drawer pull but it was worked out.

Round of half round so it would be flat when closed is possible also
Image
the above example would turn all at one time and no cupboard. So it would be flat on back side when traveling.

I am not sure if I have the skills for a round kitchen. We talked about a 1/2 round kitchen that would be flat in the back so it would stick in when turned in and stick out when turned out. The back of my trailer is strong enough for a central callum.

I have been working at painting the beast. Wiring got goofed up and I am still working on that but when I get frustrated I just paint.

outside royal light blue in side royal strawberry? :? what am I thinking, you say ... I have a plan..... glossy white top.

Side Doors are still being redsigned.
Rear door are figured but not assembled. I want to do them like this, but no windows.

Image

Windows will be on side doors. Over head vent may still happen.
I am taking pixs as I go but it still takes time to get them down to size.

By the way, the fenders for that Morris Minor Traveller are available here as fiberglass replicas and they would make excellent fenders for a Grumman or any other trailer with half-in/half-out wheels.

As you can see to the right the blue works but the Stawberry was more then I thought and would be a hard color to sleep with. I am now thinking of light blue and painting some kits on the walls.

Image
maybe a quilt or just line drawings I am getting creative here and have to think about this one for a while.

Andrew I am beginning to look more at jeep fenders they are more utilitarian. /"""\
