Sometimes you just have to get the job done. Frustrating though. When I win the lottery i'll set up the Landyzone communal workshop where we can all just do our projects. I'll provide all the tools, spares and materials. Anyone have any lucky numbers?

It
Its a 200w panel but more than I need. In the gloom of the day it was charging at about 2amps and when the sun broke through this afternoon it went up to five. The one thing I definitely didn’t want was cables strewn all over it so I’m happy with it so far. Recon I’ll be using about ten amp hours per evening if I use the heater. Other than that it’ll only be a few LEDs and charging the phone.

Nope. No sink either. Or a shower or a crapper.Wot no fridge? Water pump for a tap?
Bed, kettle, warmth and light. Everything else will be contracted out to third parties. Mostly the pub but site welfare facilities are often a better option that squatting in one’s living room.

Just like the gypos, they don't use their trailer for toilet duties either.

I’ve probably got a few weeks of work setting up the second lockup. Just as well with this weather. Can’t do anything now without wheeling the trailer outside.
Not got the keys yet but should have them next week with a bit of luck. Once secure etc I’ll be treating myself to a Bison Warrior genny to run everything with the probability of getting one of their welders eventually to team up with the power plant.
It’ll have to be impenetrable before I put the genny in there so lots to do. Just not on the camper
I have however picked up some brass sheet to have a go at reproducing the missing plaque. I’ll be popping down the sign shop this week so he can do me some vinyl and I can get some etching done.

Are you going to invite us all round to have a look at your etchings?I’ve probably got a few weeks of work setting up the second lockup. Just as well with this weather. Can’t do anything now without wheeling the trailer outside.

Oh and I’m building a mobile solar array. 
It’s a curse
3x 130ah Batteries with 3 100w panels. The idea is I can wheel it out when the sun is peeking, fold out the panels to charge then fold up and wheel it around for portable power. It’ll have the obligatory controller and a small inverter.

Between prepping the man cave 2 I’ve knocked up a box for the solar array. I’m using all the scraps and half paint tins as fast as I can as this has been relegated way down from practical to functional. Hence the chassis black for the inside and Iveco blue for thexterior.
