Just caught up with the build. Very impressive, and to think started in an attic! Can't wait to see the finished product. :thumbsup:

Steel trailer frame under the build for the final time!

I also got some trim on today. I ordered some 16 foot trim from a local RV store (Hanna In Milwaukee). It was really nice not to have any Butt joints.

It took all day and I’m exhausted.

atticdrop,, :thumbsup: :thumbsup: It has turned out so professional looking, you're going to need a sticker on that lil camper, that says "Home Built, not Bought" or people are going to think it was done in a factory.. They may even want one for themselves..
Be ready for the questions, How long did it take to build? How much to build one? When can you build me one? :thinking: :)
Stay safe, David

Years, too much, and no way! If I had to sell this one it would cost 20k, given all the labor, time spent on research, and materials! I have been having a blast building, but this is a one time deal for me.

I got all the lights on tonight. Pretty excited!
