    Thanks. Nice thing about a trailer is you can drop it for a base camp and still go explore.

    5000lbs from Tractor Supply. Welded the mounting ring to the rear bumper and tongue so each could be removed and stored inside the trailer.

    I used aluminum angle and screws to attach the main countertop to the slides. The wings (rear and right side), are attached with piano hinges and wood screws. Everything is very solid and can hold any pans, dishes and a sink full of water. I would estimate the whole thing can hold probably...

    The countertop is mounted on sliders and hinges. It slides out and the "wings" drop down. The countertop that holds the sink countertop attaches to the other part with a "J mount". The sink is a collapsible type and just sets in the hole. It took a little bit to figure out and did it by CAD...

    The 6 rock lights work together as one, so no on being able to be independent. I understand your thought of using a switch on each one, but I would be concerned that is would loose the connection with the controller and may not work. I think I have seen rock lights with only 4 lights, so you...

    There are several different lights. The led lights in the cabinets are 10" long and just plain white led with each cabinet having individual push button to turn on. The led string "bulb" lights are USB patio lights that get strung at camp and plugged in to a USB plug on either side of the...

    Here a a few pictures with everything lit up at night. Plenty of light to cook, cleanup, and sit out visiting or playing games. The under trailer lights can change color, but we usually leave them on yellow for the bugs. Now it just needs to warm-up around here to be able to sit outside more...

    Build a double slider for the cooktop. Keeps the unit from bouncing around on the trails. Sets up very quickly. Just pull out and connect the gas line and your ready to start cooking. Worked great last weekend and even added a little more storage underneath.

    It has been a while since I posted some updates. Pics are of the cabinets loaded with pretty much everything we take, literally "and the kitchen sink". Have a diesel heater, works good so far up to 9700ft. Will probably be testing it soon at 11000ft and hopefully it will still keep us warm! . I...
