The fitout of the camper trailer has begun.
I resisted the urge to put some miles on the new D4 and spent time in the shed over the weekend.
The trailer is now useable as a camper trailer:cool::cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:
I got the top fully installed.

Another job sorted this weekend.Got my storage tubes made and fitted.
Ordered 20 large hose clamps to secure them,also need to find 2 decent taps.The 2 homebrew fermenter taps are only really good for keeping dirt out.

Something's not quite right here. How do you get time to do this when you have a brand new D4 in the garage??!!😜
Well all this time later,1 camper trailer ready for its maiden run.Its not finished,but finished enough for 3 mates to use on a fishing trip:cool::cool::cool:
Hopefully using it will inspire me to complete the job.

#Set up solar panel system,complete with inverter/mppt controler.(have panels and aluminium for framework)

Sitting in the back yard christening the new camp:):):):):):):)
Set it up with the bare minimum tent poles and no spreader bars.
Where the table is there is the option to canvas wall that room,plus split it in 2 if needed,there is a spare floor too;there is a cover for the exposed trailer section too.There is also another roof section the same size again,with the option of shadecloth walls.The shadecloth walls can also be used on the room where the table is.Its a big setup,some work involved to erect it if you want it all up.

Looking good Andrew, the beer just sets it off nicely.
Would have liked to set it up neatly Ron.It was my first time setting it up and wasnt easy,and I was squished for room.I sat down for a beer at 6.45,just after taking the pics,the tablet said it was still 37degC:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
No wonder I was thirsty.
I pictured us two sitting back having a beer whilst Aaron cooked up some fillets on the BBQ;);););););)

I think I had better vac pack some meat, not that I'm doubting our collective abilities...
