Some 12" diameter styrofoam caps that I will cover in fiberglass.

Here is the boattail storage box so far
What I'm thinking for the profile of the top which will be a frame of 1/2" conduit covered in 1" foam then covered in epoxy.
This shows how I left room to tow a 2nd small trailer, my Jetski, and the new LED lights. I will cover the wood in Titebond II and fabric then paint.
Here are the cones I made for the awning, they need epoxy and paint.
Here is the whole side shot.

Can you see those, because I sure can't. If I go to http://www.hilotrailerforum.com/memb...7-imag0234.jpg I see one white pixel centered in a black field.

I can see them but maybe because that is where I hosted the pics and I am a memeber there. Maybe I need to host them here instead if they somehow block non members.

I use "Tinypic.com" cause it lets you share larger photos. Some web sites limit you to medium sized pictures. When you put something on TinyPic, the"Image code for Forums & Message Boards" to put in your post is right there on the page which is created for your new image, you just copy it and past it in your post.
Easy peasy once you get the hang of it. And you can link to a very high res image that sort of crashes the ecomodder site.
Try This Link
Ahhhhhhhh
Hope this helps. If you need more detail let me know.

Agreed. The only place I've seen that front corner treatment, I believe, was in a PDF from some university. You may be the first.
And done right too—cut at an angle so they level out. It fits well with the front window. Down the road you can replace the quarter-round caps with light fixtures, or drill a mosaic of tiny holes in the stainless steel and put the light inside.
You put a trailer hitch on your trailer so you can trailer while you're trailering?

An opaque fiberglass dome with a light inside was brought up on the Hi-lo forum, that would look pretty sweet at the campground, light could spill out the bottom as well like a wall sconce.
I have a 500 pound jet ski on a 300 pound trailer, or a 500 pound motorcycle on the same trailer I may want to double tow. It's legal here and an 800 pound single axle trailer behind a 3500-4000 pound trailer, behind a truck with a 8500 pound tow limit should be OK. Just can't back up without unhooking but I wheel that small trailer around by had all the time already.
