I like the interior you picked. It looks nice. I see you have a vent on the headboard. Curious to know how is that hooked up?

John
The lady I am building this for wants a Petcool. The hook-ups are here behind this access door
Image
and the ducting is thru the bottom of the forward cabinets and then up thru the wall cabinets to the vents. I fabricated an aluminum register box an attached it to the vent and 2" pvc. Of course that was after I puchased, modified, adapted and eventually tossed out a floor sweep head for a shop vac, trying to make it work for a register box.

Image
Since only one pvc duct continues past the first tall cabinet, it allows for some storage under the hinged center panel with cup holders. The tall panel behind the center vent hides the LED lighting and reading lights

That is lovely Dan,
mine is nowhere near the quality you are turning out, but hopefully it will sleep two in more comfort than a tent.

Dan! That's a great-looking trailer! Is is a "tenner"?

:thinking:

You do great work... I first noticed when you finished the '47 Kit.

In the pic above grizz'a post... that's the fender I want to use, and the tire-to-fender gap is about perfect. You using a torsion axle?

Any assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated!

:thumbsup:
