I’m wondering how the glowforge travels…? I had no idea what life would look like when I ordered, but now that the time is coming for a production unit, it looks like hubby and I are moving into a travel trailer for a while. Like the rest of you, I cannot wait to get my machine, and am not going to…

Suggest you ride in the back of the camper over a few bumps to cage the ride. You might be surprised at how good or bad it is. Mine is bad. Of course illegal to do that in most states. Last weekend. [image] Quick whovian fun Just got back from a vacation on the ocean in our little camper. …

That’s a good idea. Once it’s road worthy again, one of us might have to try that. On a side note, as kids, my brother and I always traveled in the camper on our way to and from. One time, I saved up my allowance and bought myself a box of fruit loops, (as we never got sugary cereal), and I had th…

Ha! Love me some Dr Who! We are still working on a theme for ours, trying to find something we won’t get tired of staring at quickly. Cute trailer btw!

Like yours, complete rot 9 months ago. [image]

I think you’ll want something comparable to the shipping box…

Oh man. Lots of work, but worth it! How long did it take from start (tear down) to finish? Ours currently looks like a flatbed. And I think we are even going replace that. We are both pretty good with construction…of buildings. A trailer is a first for us. We are currently trying to figure out the…

Which I will hopefully be able to check out soon! :smiley: If it’s not to complicated, or huge, I guess I could just travel with it in the box. That’s an idea. Thanks!

Took me about 5 weeks. Didn’t know what I was doing at first. Did not replace the floor. Replaced all of the top wood from bumper to bumper, 1/3 of the right side and segments of the left side. Took out the propane because we don’t cook inside. Too greasy. Threw a microwave inside for emer…

We started on the inside, and worked our way out to the skin, removing that too. We did it backwards. Although, we weren’t planning on stripping it down that far, but decided we couldn’t just patch the rot. We are in the middle of framing it back up. I am praying that we get it right and the skin fi…

[image] shronimo: But I’m wondering if all of the bumps of traveling will mess with alignment or cause other problems. If you replace the axle, get a torsion axle and not a spring axle @shronimo . They ride much smoother and don’t bounce as much. Dexter makes a good product. They are a surpr…
