Nice progress, good to see another builder in Edmonton, looking forward to updates.

Wouldn't 'this' weekend with our 20-25cm of snow be a great time to go camping :)

Thanks guys. Burke- I had to shovel my driveway just so I could come grab a coffee, good thing about this weather- nothing to do but build.

Good to go. Both sides bondoed and cut out my window spot (hope it fits) and ready to stand up.
Image
Gussets tacked to the front, and all the glue and screws I may need.
Image
Curb side up and plumb.

Here is the bottle holder and the propane hose entering the floor.

Cut the hose, plugged the hose with a dowel and filled the holes with thickened epoxy.

Then I cut off the bottle holder.
