Well it has finally all calmed down after the Christmas and new year stuff so managed to get a few hours this morning to my self in peace and see how the trailer was looking since I left it 3 months ago
Well everything seems to be still there and not finished but I made a bit of progress today with the battery box and running all my wiring the battery box is in the rear due to me needing the weight at the rear due to the extension and the spare at the front. The box is big enough for two batteries if I ever need it but at the moment I am going to mount the Ctek in there for charging. Not sure how it will all fit at the moment but I am sure it will
All filled the water tank up and gave the pump a good run through to check everything was still working and no leaks.
The plan for later on in the week is to get the doors finally made I have made 2 (well the frames) so only another 5 to go :(also has anyone got any ideas on how I can coat the wood? The MDF is not that nice/ good finish so I don't think varnish is an option so I was thinking paint? Any suggestions? I have looked at the PVC cladding but for the amount I will need it is rather expensive
I am going to put down some rubber matting on the decks of all the storage areas for a bit of protection anyway 07 Java Black TD V6 D3, EGRs Blanked, Tow bar, Full dog guard & divider, LED Spots , DRLs, GG ATs, RLD Sump guard, RLD Spare Wheel Protector, D4 LED Rear Lights, Limo tints on boot and Midnight tint on rear windows, Kenwood screen with Garmin nav, Rear cameras, D4 Steering wheel with flappy paddles, T-max split charge system, Tree sliders, Prospeed roof rack & Ladder, Alisport fast road inter cooler,

Looking good
But you're not really doing the doors on a camping trailer in MDF are you?Bodsys Brake Bible

You got it Greg! I was talking about the partitions and walls etc!
Bods don't worry the doors are steel framed with the same PVC coated galvanised sheeting as the rest 07 Java Black TD V6 D3, EGRs Blanked, Tow bar, Full dog guard & divider, LED Spots , DRLs, GG ATs, RLD Sump guard, RLD Spare Wheel Protector, D4 LED Rear Lights, Limo tints on boot and Midnight tint on rear windows, Kenwood screen with Garmin nav, Rear cameras, D4 Steering wheel with flappy paddles, T-max split charge system, Tree sliders, Prospeed roof rack & Ladder, Alisport fast road inter cooler,
