Get the Reynolds Wrap out, time to wrap it up

 Time to put the aluminum on the roof.  I glued some 1/8" wonderboard looking stuff that was supposed to be waterproof to the top.  The straps are holding it down while the glue dries.

Front of trailer with lid glued down and straps holding it down.  Notice the sweet dirt bike looming in front of the trailer.



First sheets of aluminum on the trailer.  Using tape to hold down the aluminum to he body before I got the trim ready.  Used an 1/8" Router bit to cut the aluminum to shape.  Word to the wise:  Wear a long sleeve shirt when you do this job.  If you don't you'll wind up looking like a small pox patient like I did because I wore a short sleeve shirt.
Trimming the inside of the door to keep the aluminum in place.

The trailer is covered in crap right now, but its pretty easy to clean up with some white vinegar and a little elbow grease.  The trim takes on a nice shine with very fine steel wool.

Here's a picture of the trailer covered in aluminum, and sporting some cabinets.
