Floor is built, epoxied, and siliconed! Tomorrow, I will put bed liner on, the off to the walls!
Tube of silicone says it may take up to 7 days to dry. Which is no biggie because I am going on a motorcycle trip for a week next week anyway.
Better pics of almost finished trailer:
Profile and holes cut. I still need to cut the notch for the hatch, which I will do later today.

The silicone dried up faster than I thought it would. So today, I cut the notch for the hatch on the walls. Then laid down epoxy, then bed liner on the bottom.
I also I put the bed liner on the bottom of the floor. So I am going to let everything cure for the night. And in the morning, I'll place everything on the trailer, and start on the cabinets.

Sorry for the lack of updates over the last couple of days. But the camper shell is done. Wiring is done. And I am working on the cabinets, and hatch tomorrow. Should have the A/C in too. I am waiting on tan bed liner and more epoxy to come it before she will be done. Other than that, the galley is all I have left.
I'll be 99% done other than waiting on bed liner to come in to coat the outside, and she'll be finished.
Carpet on the wall on the window side. Painting the ceiling.
Door side:

You started out with a chip board wall and now your walls are plywood? Did you decided to change materials?
When I saw you first picture with the chip board wall I said to myself "That is a shame!". Plywood is a much better choice!
What bed liner did you go with?
Did you level out the frame when you welded to keep from inducing any twist? Why Tig instead of Mig? Is that just what you had? Nice looking beads!
Looking forwards to you updates!

The original OSB was just a template to cut the 2 plywood walls with.Originally Posted by oughtsix
I went with Durabak bed liner. It's the best DIY liner out there. A lot of the offroad guys use it.
All I had was a TIG welder at the time. I wish I could explain how to get away from it twisting from welding, but just a lot of tack welding first, then actually welding.

Stuff needs done:
Remount fenders.
Carpet ceiling.
Build interior cabinets.
A little touch up painting.
And very little trim work left on the galley:

Very nice work. But by the look of your "galley" with all those speakers, I'm glad I'm not camping next to you!
