I'm going to put a doubler across the seam where the two panels meet and I'm most likely going to carpet the inside of the front cubbies and the bed platform and back wall to cover the kerfs. Are you talking about the roof panel or the fiberglass pop top?

Well the front wall is fixed. It wasn't too bad to get done. I'm over cutting these panels up. So much fiberglass dust and foam specks. I'll be glad after the roof is on. New vid is up. Link at the bottom-

I think you'll beat me to completion. I have a lot of work left. Probably another 6+ months on this thing at least. Thanks for the offer on the tape. I'm going to stick with the aluminum and Teroson. I don't mind having a strip of aluminum across the front panel. I'll cover the seam on the...

Your frame is looking great (y) (y) You are doing great at keeping track of time. I wish I would have done the same but all I can do is guess...

Haven't done much lately due to waiting on backordered Teroson 939. It finally came in and I got a few things glued. Aluminum angle on the rear shelf and top corner of the pantry. Also got the corner guard on the bottom back corner of the body. I also had a colossal ******** with the front panel...

Scott is correct. They are BAL C Jacks. These are the largest ones they sell.

Great progress!! Looking awesome Scott (y) (y)

New vid up. Got the back panel glued and riveted today. Screwed up the kerf cuts but they will get covered with something. Ran out of Teroson. I have 6 tubes coming but they are backordered. Hopefully gluing the front panel next weekend (y) (y)

The roll was 84" x 196ft. I think I'll have somewhere around 60-70ft left. I know I used at least 120ft of it and probably a bit more. I stopped keeping track :)

Louis - Any exposed foam or fiberglass edge will be covered with either a door, aluminum/steel angle or plastic T-molding. The front and rear storage cubbies on the interior will get T-molding along with the exposed edge of the bed platform. Everything else should be covered by metal of some sort

New short vid up. Got the pantry panels glued and riveted and experimented with some aluminum angle for the edge of the fenders.

Looks great. Nice beefy shackles. That truss looks good too (y)

Thanks, that is one of the main reasons why I post how I do things. So other people can see another way and maybe come up with a better way to do it or at least maybe get a bit of motivation/inspiration to work on their own project. I know Styromax uses foam with grooves in it. They buy it...

I made up some protection angles for the bottom edge of the walls. I didn't like the exposed skin even though it would be somewhat protected by the raptor liner. Got the rear shelf installed too. That stiffened up the walls more than I thought it would. New vid below. There's another episode...

Thanks buddy (y) (y)

Thanks I appreciate that (y)

I did but it was quite a while ago. I'll have to rig one up and do a test. Good idea (y)

Yeah I didn't want to just rely on the Teroson only at the panel joints so the angle pieces and rivets really put a lot of strength into the joints. I'll keep your epoxy anchor hole in mind if I need to do any bolt thru stuff. Trying to keep that to a minimum. I learned my lesson on the pvc. The...

Thanks Scott. Glad you like my work :) I took a look at your thread over on tnttt. Looks like a good concept. I like your train of thought on the new one too. Let me know if you have any questions about my build. Always happy to help or answer if I can. Good to have you here (y)(y)
