Teardrop trailer construction 9

Our schedule this weekend did not include very much time to accomplish much, so we concentrated on the little things that needed to be completed. We built and installed the face and doors for the electrical chase. We also built the shelves for the cabinets and installed missing drawer hardware , handles, and roller catches so the doors would stay closed.

We also started installing the light fixtures. When we got the wire run to them we touched the wires to a 12 volt battery from a drill and lights came on. It was amazing that these little lights flooded this small room. We were happy to know that it was enough lighting to get the job done.




Kent purchased the oven and cook top we were planning on because we wanted to make sure it all fit. It does have a couple of problems but I think we will be able to adjust to make it work. These pictures show it with the top closed and with it up. It will sit on a rolling tray so it can be pulled out for use. We were hoping that the oven could be used right in place but the heat requirements mandate it to be pulled out.
Additionally we started the wiring of the power converter. It took a little while to figure it out but it is coming now. We appreciate all those who have placed information of their own experiences on the web. Without your help it would have been harder.
