    Not much of a fan. I have curtains in my shell and usually always have the back window covered.

    Very close to being finished. Snaps need to be installed along with the material for the ceiling. Windows will be the last task3F0AF60C-EC67-41DF-A99A-45F177BE4317.jpg

    How are you creating a seal at the bottom of the fabric for water buildup, or do you plan on adding an overlap piece along the bottom? Pretty motivating going through all of your updates seeing how its all put together :thumbsup:

    The material lays flat on top of the frame at the bottom, any water will run off. There is a strip on the inside of the frame to stop any water from touching the cushions if it happens to seep under the vinyl.

    Cushions can stay bedding endless sheets should be packed away. You open it from the outside same with closing

    Looks great man! Nice looking build! I am glad there are people like you that post your progress on your builds! Great job! You could probably put Alu-Cab in a sweat with competition!
