You could always come visit us and camp for a night or 3!

 

[highdesertranger]

I wish I could but I have to stay focused. highdesertranger

Congratulations on the new trailer. That is an awesome blank slate to start with.

I have a 7X16 cargo camper. It is great and the perfect size for us, but I know that you have lots of equipment and 3 Engels to house so you need more room. Pictures of my build (and many other CTs) are over on tnttt cargo trailers. For mine: http://www.tnttt.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=55219&start=255

Good luck and enjoy your new camper!

Very nice Mike, with your knowledge and expertise, you will end up with a rig to be comfortable and proud of.
Good luck!

Will negotiate...

 

[Gypsy108]

well actually I have it all loaded up ready to go to Arizona.  I have been buying parts but it's been slow going as the trailer put a big dent in my wallet.  don't worry it will come.  highdesertranger

I have nice furniture if you need anything 
You’d have to swing by and pick it up ...

I didn't realize you were in south texas! 

 

[highdesertranger]

the trailer is over in Mohave Valley, AZ. I no longer have a place to work on things in So Cal. I already told my boss come October I am going to be real scarce so plan accordingly. highdesertranger

 

[Cammalu]

What kind of stuff? Inquiring minds want to know.,,

 

[B and C]

Shaker, clarifier, etc LOL

 

[highdesertranger]

what kind of stuff?

well I have 2 of the 435 watt solar panels.
I have my old 2 80 watt panels which is a complete system
rood top combiner box
conduit to run the wire in, plus fittings
battery box for the tongue which is a cross the bed tool box. so it will hold more than the batteries
circuit breakers and box
misc wire and fittings

I still need the controller and a few other misc things for the solar. I want to get the solar up and running first then I will work on the other stuff over time. my goal is to get the solar done before January.

a BIG SHOUT OUT to Jim in Denver for help with the solar design. Jim I have a couple bottles of your favorite adult beverages with your name on them.

I will try to get some insulation done and maybe a couple windows and a door done by then to. but once the solar is done I am good to go. I will just put my cot inside and camp in it. after all I have a complete camp already,

I will post build threads once it cools down. there will be a.

roof rack build
solar build
window, door, and insulation build
bed build
shower build
storage system build
and whatever else pops up build

@HDR
Let me know if you need an extra hand this winter. I intend on being in AZ desert at some point then and would be more than glad to assist for a week or whatever.

 

[LowTech]

^ Yep! I'm on w/ that as well.

 

[highdesertranger]

thanks guys I will let everyone know when I start work. from memory it's usually towards the end of October when it starts to cool down. highdesertranger
