You are going to want to beef up that frame. We had to do that to ours after 5 yards of compost.

Cleaned up the rust and primed the doors. Got all doors attached.

Got in the small area to fit folding tables and solar panels

Now a deep dive. Looking like I'm going to have to modify the door jams to get the cooler to fully come out. But I know that I'm going to need to put the slide-outs on a 1” lift so that it came to miss the bottom jam.

It's good to see that things might work. But my math was a little off. As you can see I had to remove a fack to get the cooler to come out. One little thing but not a deal breaker.

Learning from your mistakes can lead to better things happening. So far I did not have to shave down door latches to get the doors to close.

This weekend I can take more pictures. I have to make sure that the sliders for the refrigerator and sink and stove are going to work properly.

For the doors, I used 1/2-inch square tubing for the frame. The door skin was 20 gaga cold rolled steel. The door jams are angle and step steel at 1/2 inch. What else would like to know?

Building the door jam frames is fun. I have never installed the flush mount door handles, so you can see my mistake. That space us going to be fun filling back in. Oh and I had to shave the latch to get the hand to close.

I love the concept drawing. If only we had more hours in a day. And other life stuff would step aside for us to work.

Shocks and limit straps in.

Why is it the smaller tasks take more time than others? The electronics and kitchen doors are done. Ok not fully done but you get the idea.  electronics and kitchen doors are done.

Hint running wires is going to take a long time. Harbor Freight has a spot welder for $175 240V don't forget to get a plug for it. Yes, it does come with the wiring but no plug go figure. The doors I started came out better than I thought they would.

2 fn days dealing with wiring both ends. Was hoping to get wiring done one day and skin the doors another.

Have fun welding two sheets of sheet metal together. Take your time I mean really go slow with it. No one likes warped sheet metal.

Thought I posted these pictures but here we go. I have this weekend away from it due to other things that need to be done in life but next weekend more to come.

Started working on door frames using 1/2x1/2 sq tubing. I got the front and back trailer walls cut and trimmed.

I’m using disks like the one you show. For the A army’s I’m going to keep them the way they are. I’m not doing a Baja with it so I don’t think it’s going to be an issue. If I do see it hitting things I would test out nylon sliders.

So to register the trailer in New Mexico we have to show what we paid for to make the trailer. I’m waiting for the last day to add up everything to show the DMV. I have a feel this amount is what they are going to tax me for register.

Why is the small projects take the longest to do?
