dam you did an awesome job on the camper! I build decks and patios for a living so i have a good appreciation for that deck, nice work! i would love to build a deck like that for a camper!:cong::metal:

Re: 76 Terry Taurus
 

Wow that's cool! Thanks for sharing.

Re: 76 Terry Taurus
 

thanks guys
its sure a lotta work when you start rippin
If i was to do it again i'd prob go start with a bigger trailer
level it flat and build it up from the floor in a square(of course) shape
like a house,with house type windows/doors,the none drafty kind

and after a year of using the deck,we love it.best upgrade yet

na he's not spoiled eh....mmmmm bacon
behind me you can see i moved the corner support for the gazebo out to gain access to the shed area
next year we are gona pull it out and leave more room in front of the BBQ/shed

somebody said there were bears seen on the beach....compared to buddys paw i duno

Re: 76 Terry Taurus
 

hahaha.. that looks smaller than a bear print.. although it could be a small bear, but the shape of it definently does look like a bear print

Re: 76 Terry Taurus
 

finished up around dark
went to the beach ,got stuck,got pulled out

Re: 76 Terry Taurus
 

Thats the most amazing thing I've ever seen done to a trailer, you are a great carpenter and designer! It was really something how fixing a leak turned into a remodeling of the whole trailer. What did you do with your old work of art? And where did you get that wicker blade fan? I love wicker blade fans and cant find them anywhere!

Re: 76 Terry Taurus
 

thanks
the fan was a cheapy only wicker for one side
lol the work of art is sold,but sitting in storage till we move it
seems the jerk that did all the work didn't bolt the box to the floor lol
(I couldn't get under it in the spot)
there were bets on wether it could still be intact (or roll sideways down hill )
after pulling out....no probs

Re: 76 Terry Taurus
 

this might be my next burb
trailering special....with diesel? $3000.
i know both the original owner and current

Re: 76 Terry Taurus
 

storage
A friend is buying it for her Mom they are putting it @their cottage

Re: 76 Terry Taurus
 

I was at a friends garage, seen a wicker fan and asked it it new?
No it was my grandmas(found it still in the box)
His mom wants it but they figured 20 plus years old lol

Re: 76 Terry Taurus
