Lots of things happened lately, worked on the Jeep today for new controll arms rear axle lower ones. Will do the A-frame controll arm upper section sunday or monday.
Did some maintenance to the winch as he let me down during a recovery. It wasnt a problem, just an annoyans. Especially when it just was a matter of corrosion.
And of course made the tool wall a bit bigger, buidl a new workbench for the Lathe, bandsaw and the oscillation sander.
And cleaned up the Garage in General.

It has been a while but busy me was travelling, having fun, and some sorrow.
The sorrow part is that my body slowly getting older, and the illnesses are getting worse.
That said, I had to change a bit in my kind of lifestyle.
We always travelled with our Jeep and Trailer, but unfortunally the trailer doesnt suit me as well as before.
So, before it getting really bad, we decided that it is time for a change.

So the Trailer is for sale and we , well mostly me, are busy with building a campervan. It will be an improvement, but also a downgrade.
Improving the ease of travel and moving around in the van is the plus. Driving less heavy tracks is the negative.
But as we keep the Jeep, we can do both, just not at the same time.

So since september we do own a Mercedes Sprinter w906 from 2018 and that will be turned into our campervan.
The philosofy were the trailer was based on will be continued in the Van. Live outside, sleep inside. Just a bit more comfort.

Well first it is working on fase 1. Making the cockpit and such ready for the buiild.
New radio, rearview mirror, Ram mounts for phones and tablets.
Upgrading the seats and such.
And in the cargo bay uphholstering the walls, ceiling and floor.
But just see for yourself.
