I just ordered a 5kw and 8kw from Vevor's site. They are the same price so who knows. Were they a brand that was tested? For insulation around the pop up fabric, you might be able to find an inexpensive polyfil or thinsulate blanket that you could cut down so it hangs like a curtain. Maybe a...

What conditions are you insulating for? Did you see the insulation system system I did in my Spacekap build? https://forum.expeditionportal.com/threads/spacekap-diablo-6-build.236893/

Thanks for the links. I saw more Gustafson products on etrailer and was wondering how the quality is. https://www.etrailer.com/dept-pg-RV_Interior_Lights-sf-Puck_Light.aspx

Didn't see your post. It's a blank slate. Converting a cargo trailer.

I'm shopping interior lighting and am wondering what other people's experience has been? There is the usual Amazon Alibaba express but I'm hoping to find something slightly higher quality. Not much better on RV sites so I'm going to start combing the marine world. I'm specifically looking for...

What steered you away from dope? I've found dope works 100% of the time on metal pipe threads. Teflon works 95% of the time on plastic and I never use it on metal because most of the time it doesn't work.

These look great. I'm curious to hear peoples feedback as well.

That's a cool idea. I bet the holes wont be bad if they route through the middle of a side panel. Where are you thinking of housing the propane tank?

Thanks for introducing your company. Do you sell extrusion packages with panels? Do you also have instructions for bonding panels and extrusions? The 2 part extrusions look a little tricky for DIY considering the panel cut tolerances for the overlap and any fixturing during bonding. Do you...

Do you know what CPT's warranty is on a custom design if there is a mechanical failure?

Looks like you have a short box truck and from the camper drawing it appears you're doing a 7ft flatbed and 10ft cabin. Regarding the door location, what are your thoughts on sheer and stress at the inside corner where the nose meets the cabin? Also are you adding any internal framing or extra...

How would Frolis or slats do when the lid is lifted up? Seems like they would need to be secured in some way.

I capped my honeycomb panel edge with 1" wide C shaped aluminum shelf stiffener extrusions. I don't think you need that thick of panel to span the ribs in your drawing. The general idea is to find some type of cap to bond over the edge. Here is a site where you can look at the different...

A napkin drawing of how your going to lay it out would help for anyone offering advice. I'd consider bonding in thin wall aluminum rectangular tubing for the support/partitions and then a honeycomb core FRP panel for the lid.

Depends on the test and panel matrix. Big loads in bending and axial compression, the skins buckle. Tensile, the skins tear apart. Normal compressive load the foam gets squashed and the skin eventually tears or punctures. Fatigue, the foam core can turn to dust. Environmental, thermocycle, UV...

With my install, I'm hoping to apply adhesive in the field and run a bead around the perimeter to keep any moisture from condensing between the foam and Aluminum. I'll probably leave some gaps in the bead at the bottom of the foam to allow moisture to drain out if any gets trapped.

I've done diesel heaters on a couple of builds and like anything, they have their plusses and minus's. That said I'm going to use them on my current build. The 2 tradeoffs I live with are the solenoid fuel pumps click pretty loud at night and the heaters like to be cycled hard to burn clean...

I've been wondering the same thing and did a little internet searching as I am starting a utility trailer build. I haven't tried Sikaflex. I bought several tubes of Loctite PL3x premium and am about to give it whirl. It's also a polyurethane adhesive...

I've wondered out them. Those are the same pics they have had up for a couple years and I vaguely remember someone posting that they weren't able to connect on it. Will be interesting to see if anyone has contacted them recently.
