today I started on the murphy bed! I built the frame, installed 1/2'' plywood for the platform, and installed the hinges. next I will install 1/8'' plywood to the bottom and trim the walls so it will look like part of the wall when it's up.
I framed the wall around the bed and installed lauan on the wall and bottom of the bed, installed trim and installed latches. im using barrel bolt latches to hold the bed in the up position and when down it sits on the wheel wells. tomorrow I will try to varnish the bed and wall.
Looks real nice. How much is left to complete? You seem to be almost done. The satisfaction of building your own trailer is big. Getting out and using it, and seeing all the interest it brings from other campers is huge. So many people believe they could never complete such a big project. You did well!
today I made a handle for the murphy bed, varnished the bottom of bed, wall and wheel wells, finished installing the lights, and installed breaker box cover next I will install the carpet, finish the trim and build the back bumper.
today I installed the carpet, finished the inside trim and carpeted the bed platform. tomorrow I will try to make and install the outside trim and build the bumper.
