You may have to double that added travel time now! That is a nice piece they did on your project, and best wishes on the trip!

We keep a copy of the story our paper did about Hamlet, along with the book about his restoration and first trip in the trailer. When we're expecting people to drop in, we keep them out for all to see. Fun stuff.

When we're expecting people to drop in, we keep them out for all to see. Fun stuff. We also have a picture book to show people. When you tell them that we took the camper down to the chassis and axle, they don't really get it until they see the picture! And then they're blown away! Lol |

Very proud of you both for doing such a beautiful job on your trailer. You two are living proof that you don't have to own a shop or have a degree in trailer restoral to build your dream trailer. A few tools, 800 spare hours of time and $10,000 will do it. 
And of course VTT...  |

And of course VTT... We only WISH we had the good info that's now available here. Back when we started Hamlet, the old VSTF had only been up and running for a few weeks. We might have saved ourselves several dozen hours, several hundred dollars, and several (hundred) disagreements during the process! |
