Wicked nice. You a carpenter or furniture maker, or just real good with a hobby? Reminds of the vintage tear drop camper trailer with that kitchen shelf in the back! I like the Mountain House, I use them when I'm backpacking, freeze dried sure has come a long ways since I was a kid.

Fabrication is a life long hobby. I think I like the building as much as the riding. My first career track was electronics and my second was air traffic control. I picked up the fiberglass and paint experience when I ran a charter business in Valdez AK.

Ok, perfect. I was going to be concerned about the effect of weather on it, but I see you've got this figured out. Great job.

Very impressive, got that US Army look! Consider some plans with measurements for a good cold weather garage project. All I did today was put a hook on the front and went riding. I think I need to start looking for a spare stock tire. Is that angle iron you made the tire mount with?

Yes I made this mount out of two pieces of 1X1x 1/8 angle iron. But 1X2 X 1/8 channel would be easier and work better. Also some flat stock and 1/2" ready rod and 1/2 nuts. I mounted it with 1 1/2 x 5/16 U bolts to the ROP. I will consider a set of plans and bill of material. Thanks for the interest.
