Corner Cabinet

Last weekend we continued working on the horse trailer, particular the corner cabinet.  This is probably the hardest/most complicated project but we made some great progress over the past few days.

 

I even managed to get a photo of myself helping with the construction.  The picture doesn't really do it justice, but I'm covered head to toe with sawdust!

 

 

In order to install the drawers, we had to do some creative carpentry to get the angles correct.  Good thing Matthew is skinny because the cabinet space kept getting smaller and smaller!

 

Installing the runners.

 

It might not look like much, but these three drawers really add a lot of storage.  Next up: cut out the shelf and build the cabinet face.

 

Matthew also did some painting on the underside of the trailer (no photos) and I installed our US map that Emily and Miran gave us for Christmas.  We were going to put the map in a frame inside the trailer but decided that we liked it better on the outside. I did not add Hawaii or Alaska since it is unlikely we will ever make it to either of those.

The criteria for each state is that we sleep in the camper there for one night.  So far, we only have three states but that will soon change!
