I finally got to work on the Camper again! \u00c2\u00a0I added some framing to the roof section that was sagging.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00c2\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

It stopped the sag!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here is a close up. \u00c2\u00a0The 1×2 was as a spacer so the 2×2 would fit into the lid better when it is closed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But I didn’t like the way it fit, so I took the 1×2 spacer out and now the ends are at a bit of an angle, with the roof having a little overhang now too. \u00c2\u00a0The whole works will be held in one solid piece with one wing nut on each end through those 2×2’s.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But having it at an angle exacerbates another problem: \u00c2\u00a0There was always a little air coming around the back of the end piece. \u00c2\u00a0Now there is a lot more. \u00c2\u00a0You can see where the light is coming through.\"\"\u00c2\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

Here is the outside of the other end. \u00c2\u00a0I think the easiest thing to do will be to stuff something in it when I set up. \u00c2\u00a0I am more worried about bug entrances than rain!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So I put a sleeping pad (I am getting a real mattress for this!) and crawled on in. \u00c2\u00a0Rock solid!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But loud…all that empty space below the bed wrapped in 3\/8 inch plywood is just like a drum! \u00c2\u00a0It should quiet down a lot when there is stuff in the cargo bay.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

AND it is a long way up and down. \u00c2\u00a0I definitely need some kind of a step or two. \u00c2\u00a0And there will be a fabric cover over this side also.<\/p>\n

So I am almost ready to sand, fill, sand some more, and paint!<\/p>\n
