Looks great

Looking good! I was curious how an epoxy would stand up for longevity. Time will tell

 

[Texman]

Thanks.

cant use the struts for the doors without head trauma, so i just made some fixed support to hold open.

shovel with monkey fists

water tank drain and access if no power

 

[Texman]

Texas tag and titled done. (not fun) 1700# full of gear but 42 gallon tank empty. so 1700 + 350 water + 50 spare is 2100 # loaded up.

epoxied all the cabinets and drawers and added hardkorr led for galley

64 ah batteries (16 x4) solar charge port, lights and pump switch

any thoughts on jerry can mounted sideways?

 

[gjk5]

I don't think sideways is an issue, what are your thoughts on the Gazelle tent and the Joolca shower?

 

[Texman]

well, can't say yet since I haven't had a chance to use them. usually go to New Mexico, but the state is on fire.
