Foamies,
I am new to this and working on design for my first foamie. May start a build journal after I get a few design challenges worked out.
My plan is to build a 6' X 11'6" Winter Warrior that lifts up to standing height in back. Walls will be 2" foam covered with canvas drop cloth/glue. Ceiling would be kerfed 2". The back half where the hatch sits will be 1" thick with a 1" thick hatch that will "nest" in the opening created where the 2" meets the 1", if that makes any sense. Does that seem workable?
Planning a raised bed that sits lengthwise and has a 10" walkway on either side of the bed, with the bottom half of the bed pop up to create a dinette with benches on either side of a 2X3 table. That part is built.
Question about the walls - has anyone ever cut a 1" notch (i.e., a rabbit cut) in the 2" at the bottom so that a 1" thickness of the wall overhangs the floor and the steel frame of the trailer? Walls would then be glued to the edge of the floor and 1" of floor itself, thus covering the plywood edges of the sandwich floor and the trailer frame).
Could really use some feedback/ideas as I have never seen any of the trailers discussed in the foamie threads.
