    Very impressive. Is it wood or a composit? Where does sink drain?

    Material is baltic birch ply. I coated all of the top surfaces with "bar epoxy". All other surfaces are coated with urethane. The sink has a hose that I run to the ground, under the trailer.

    Galley details from my build thread:

    Found some good 250 lb. drawer slides and cut up a bunch of baltic birch ply. All of the working surfaces (counter tops) are coated with "Bar Epoxy". Gives a good hard finish and looks great. Then covered everything in urethane for waterproofing and UV protection.

    I have to use the air bag suspension to level the trailer. Must be level or the flat bottom sink to drain.

    I modified (shortened) a cargo bar that I purchased from Harbor Freight LINK to support the fold out galley. It's got well over a foot of adjust-ability for when the trailer is not parked on level ground.

    I haven't been happy with any of the stoves that I've seen. I wanted something with a little more power. I'm building my own stove and it will have two 30K BTU burners.

    The water heater is from Campchef and I'm pretty impressed with it. The mounts are not very strong, so I strapped it with large zip-ties. The head has too much flow and I don't really like the water valve on it, so I'm going to be changing those parts out.

    I purchased a Sea-Dog LINK switch panel with 5 switches and a cigarette lighter socket.

    One thing I would have done different. The kitchen counter is 24" deep. The sink determines the minimum depth (20") and I should have gone with that.


    To do list:
    Finish and install stove
    Wire power to charge galley battery
    Install stereo
    Add two drawers to galley
    Add one storage box cover to galley
    Add gas springs to one galley storage box
    Build additional counter space and storage on tailgate door
    Enlarge trailer lid
    Add another 10 gallon water storage tank
    Misc. plumbing and electrical to clean things up
    Install new sink faucet / shower head
    Figure out a paper towel holder for the galley
