eatSleepWoof gets a Winnie

[eatSleepWoof]

Good sir, can you kindly point to me where you got those? that is exactly what I need in order to sleep in.

This is the blind product I used.

Pay attention to the size. The width is the width of the frame itself, not the blind material. The blind will be about an inch narrower. So in case of a 22x72" blind, the frame will be 22" wide, and the actual blind approximately 21".

Ah ok, makes sense, that is cheaper than I expected.

Thank you for the link.

Very winterized. Much sad. Many depress.

waaat, already? we got one more trip before storage, then it's almost 6 months of sadness lol.

Have you ever seen the Micro Minnie 5th wheeler? I knew they made them for like a year or two back in 2018 and 2019, but never seen one in person until few weeks ago saw it driving by, here's the kicker, the dude converted into bumper pull, very tempted to buy a used one and convert it into my own FLX version.

If they ever make a new version, I'd buy it, even with all the crap I had to deal with on this one.

Our vacation time is used up and sub-freezing night-time temperatures are already here, so yeah, it was time to winterize. In the past we've never done this because the trailers fit into the garage and we also winter camped, but that won't be happening this year .

Never seen the 5th wheel Minnie. Honestly, I've never understood the appeal of 5th wheels.

Some parks are now open year round, but no sanitation stations, I've kinda want to try, but not sure if I wanna risk frozen black tank.

fifth wheel tows nicer, the load is on top of the rear axle and you can maneuver easier, I still like how ours tow, its easy to fit into everything I just wish for more interior space, I know you mentioned before on another thread we are looking more or less the same design, may be I'll just end up build one myself lol.

Always prepare for every problem. The overlanding mantra.

Hope to see more update on your trailer when Spring arrives, got the key to the new trailer so it's time to leave Micro Minnie gang.

Nice work. Did you match the pantry (where TV was) and drawer setup? Or some how find a matching laminate or did you just match as close as possible with stain?

I have same camper, but FLX. Might be moving to an MDC tho as this camper is just too big to get many places.

A bit of both.

With the drawers under the bed I tried to match the stain. Red Oak plywood + the weathered oak stain I used result in a pretty close match.

For the other items I used original trailer materials/panels which I previously removed.

Bummer, silly Canuck woes. We were just discussing a beach weekend in the coming weeks in our camper haha. That said, down here in south Texas, mid-summer, the last place you'll find me is camping (at least not locally) yet the majority of the rest of the country will be out in force, wild differences.

Just made it through the entire thread. Nicely done. I wish I had your wood working capabilities. Love the drop drawer under the microwave.
