Day 317

Saturday, November 13, 2021

All caught up…tomorrow I start the annual moving of the Travel Trailer to Arizona!  Hooked up, washed up, gassed up.  I hope to leave by dawn (7:27am).  It will take three days; I hope I get better mileage than last year…I hope to get at least 8mpg one part of it! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 290

Wednesday, October 13, 2021

I got the Trailer effectively finished.  Trim and decoration are not my department! I put a frame up for the butcher block counter to sit on ($199!) and used a 2×2 I bought for the purpose (the salvaged 2×2’s that were left are pretty miserable…) $3.48, as well as the section of the counter I […]

Day 287

Saturday, October 9, 2021

I had the Alternate Trunk Monkey helping today! We hemmed and we hawed and we sawed and we did it!  Actually the dimensions and the right angles came out so close to plan that it scared me.  We cut this 1/4″ plywood top for the water heater compartment from a bunk base and slapped it […]

Day 285

Saturday, October 9, 2021

Still working on the sewing room in the trailer…getting there! Here is the plan…but the rare earth magnets got dropped.  On the other hand I have still spend $0.00 on this remodel! Making the basic frame for around the hot water heater. Fitting the piece of veneer that is the removable front access panel to […]

Day 284

Saturday, October 2, 2021

Another panorama of the inside of the trailer.  (hmmm, we might have to christen it with a name…).  You can see how the removal of the bunks opened up a lot of space, even with leaving the half wall! Click to see it larger; BACK to return! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 282

Saturday, October 2, 2021

An odd looking vertical panorama of Toots pulling staples from the boards we recovered.  You can see the half-wall, too.   That was at the end of the bunks.  There were a LOT of staples… ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 281

Saturday, October 2, 2021

When we talked to the dealer about removing the bunkbeds, they said it would hurt the resale value.  We aren’t concerned about resale: we intend to keep it for a while, and could use more space.  The Dailylife Wife wants a sewing area. Here is our personal Trunk Monkey (TM), Toots, at work.  Once I […]
