My little turtle build( revision)

[Dirtytires]

The plan for today was to get the aluminum primered up. The weather is not wanting to go above 40.
I am going to go take it to the carwash and clean it up in order for it it be clean before the spray tomorrow.
I have some spring fever...

Nice day today. Had a little time to play with the Turtle today.


I put the quick locks on for a shovel or whatever.
I am looking for a Nato can holder.

Installed a utility light on front of the box.
Always good to have light. Will need to get a switch and wire it up to the small battery.
The fun continues.

Went with Pikeman, had a good time and did some obstacles that will impress I think, waiting for the video and pictures. Mike is a great guy, very funny, and is quite a capable driver. Great to put faces with names, hopefully during the summer at Ouray. I promise you have never seen anything like Ouray, Colorado. Not even in other parts of Colorado, nothing like it. The trailer is looking great man, you new guys are showing us the ropes, east coasters are ruling. Titan the god of all trail worthy with his young deciples following closely along. Great work on the trailers Dirty tires and Maine.

We learn form the best . You ole men..I await the pics and videos.. We can't touch Titan.

Trailer is looking great, have you figured out any interior plans yet?

 

[Dirtytires]

I am going to have storage on the right side and , a pull out sink and counter on the opposite.

 

[Mark Harley]

Will you use the gull wing door as an awning over the cook area?
Please post more pictures, this little trailer is cool!

 

[Titanpat57]

lol...you guys are too funny..

The TB-1 is coming along nicely...and I have a feeling some nice weather is right around the corner. It'll all come together with the paint!

Good luck and keep up the good work,

Pat

 

[Mark Harley]

Pat how is your interior coming?

 

[Titanpat57]

Coming good, Mark..thanks (don't want to hijack)

Picking up wainscoting for the inside tonight, pretty much finished all the foam insulation.

On a side note Craig..is the "kitchen" going to slide straight out once the outside door opens? I used a sink and stove top out of a donor pop-up. I just cut both the holes to fit in the top, and they just lay-in, once the aluminum top is in place.

If I can help let me know.

Pat

 

[Dirtytires]

I have no idea to be honest with you Pat.

 

[Mark Harley]

Slide out would be cool!
Keep us posted!

Today I placed a spot light on the front of the trailer. I wired a switch on the side on the box.

Switch picture. I know it is a Switch.

I took some time to put some containers together for the trailer.
I commited one to be the fire box, socks box, beauty, ect. I took a few
hardwood logs and split them then cut then up for timber with a saw and
filled a med box up with the wood. I t never fails for me, everytime I camp it rains
and all the wood is wet. Not this time baby..

New cot in the mail today. This thing is great..

Holds 300 lbs. Since, I only weight half that. I am good.



I will pick up the lift arms for the doors on Saturday.
A little more tweaking and paint.
