Re: Let's see your homemade crafts!
This is my 18' camper/cargo/snowmobile trailer I made 6 years ago. It started life as a 18' boat trailer that I made to have a flat floor. Originally built to be a aerodynamic snowmobile trailer that fits 2 sleds. It has evolved more into a camper that sleeps 4 and a dog. The rear bed is a queen pullout couch frame and the bunks are wood with 3" foam, all fold up to the walls. It has batteries that will run it for a weekend, with a 25W solar panel. Running cold water, stereo, 19" tv, L.E.D. lights, 1750W inverter, built in 10A battery charger when we have power. The rear door opens up and has a screen from a gazebo that covers the opening. The sides and roof are aluminum sheeting used on transport trailers. The empty trailer weighs about 1300lb and still fits 2 snowmobiles or 2 quads. Pulls like a dream.

Re: Let's see your homemade crafts!
That works! I had a 20' enclosed trailer that I used as a camper but didn't have water. I just slept on a queen air mastress.
I did have AC/Heater though.

Re: Let's see your homemade crafts!
All by hand with a Dewalt Scroll saw. Something I've done a lot of over the years. I made a bunch of trophies for a model boat club in San Diego over the summer. Make a little money here & there. Keeps me busy.

Re: Let's see your homemade crafts!
The weather has turned and the WMB's motor has expired I going to be doing some carpentry inside for a while. I thought I would post some photos and bring the thread up to the top. This is a banister I am building for my house. I hope you enjoy.

Re: Let's see your homemade crafts!
Necessity is the father of all inventions as well as most hobbies. I picked up leather work a few years ago because I carry a lot of crap around at work where I work maintenance. I hate having my pockets loaded down so I bought some leather and taught myself to wet form, dying and stitching to make that dark brown pouch to carry my cellphone, notepad, pens etc. Then I made a flashlight holder. Soon after another guy I worked with wanted a pouch so I made him the blue one and my supervisor wanted a messenger bag for his laptop. I was happy to oblige as I've found the craft very rewarding. Soon I'll be thinking of something to make for my truck lol

Re: Let's see your homemade crafts!
Thank you. But its not near as impressive as Ken O's scroll work. That man is a true craftsman and an artist.

Re: Let's see your homemade crafts!
Two months ago I delivered my last double bass, repaired, modified and pinstriped.
It came out well, customer was very happy with it. After seeing it, it was quiet for about three minutes, then he only said: Bizarre!!

Re: Let's see your homemade crafts!
Bumping this back to the top. Back on post 172 I showed some photos of the banister project I did. I failed at follow up then so here's the rest of the story.
The second photo is of the mockup of the ballastors and the spacers I used.
