Why is it that every-time I see the thread tittle, my brain reads something different?

Because I gave it a groovy thread title on purpose ;)

I also like that "asstastic" is pretty much part of the name, because right now this trailer is 16 feet of pure, unadulterated, nasty ass. There's even a scary schmear of something right next to where the toilet was.

Was that the same infamous one that coughed up a motor in Colorado and almost brought your whole enterprise down around your ears?

Most of the wall area is just skin, insulation, and 1/8-in. birch plywood. It's sick, in a genius sort of way.

No. This was several motorhomes later, though they were all terrible in their own ways.

Remind me again why we're doing this trailer??

The nice thing about trailers (as opposed to motorhomes) is that you can park them, set them on fire, and still drive away.

You're doing it purely for our amusement. Or to spend quality time cursing alongside your husband. Or to plumb the mysteries of the screw nail and why such a misbegotten fastener even exists. But mostly because, combined with the Edsel, this will probably result in one more epic, hilarious cross-country crawl with your kids before they truly strike out on their own.

Thank God Cherrios have holes in them. I have a few lodged in my nose.

Wood repairs almost complete; I would recommend using sheet foam for insulation

Hah! I remember when I thought it would be fun to build a camping trailer.
