hi mate, (just me) thanks for input, i might just do that next time, but I sealed the whole thing, in an aliminuium expanding paint thats used on boats,with two coats,then a primer then two coats of weathershield, and now fitting the interior, this baby aint going no-where! to be fair I do six shows and it`ll be used for them, the rest of the time she`ll be parked in my yard under cover , I had her out in a downpour yesterday and she aint leaked yet?.

Having thought about this project for a few yrs,I wanted to create something between a sheperds hut and a caravan,something I can carry stock to shows,whilst looking part of the stall.something I can sleep in, and not look out of place on my pitch. due to the limit on the amount of pics allowed, i`ll try and put up pics daily over my progress. 1/ weld up a base, 2/buy a trailer kit from ebay 3 create a overlap over wheels to get full 6ft sleeping width 4/lay in spare insulation I had free 5?make some little brackets from hardwood.
