Oh right, you posted the model pics earlier. Neat concept. Stitch and glue, yes, well a composite variation on that method anyway. Bravo, not many know what the stitch and glue method is. My method can be done completely frameless on the inside of the trailer at that size. Like half an octagon in cross section at max width/height. 6’ wide at the walls, 4’ tall side walls, followed by 3’6” width of panels canted inward about 30 degrees, with a 4’ wide flat top. Tapering at the front, less so at rear. All with 1” structural closed cell foam bonded to the exterior with 2 layers glass cloth over it. With tail cone to match.

I’ve done something with that method before. It came out great. Frameless, light, and very stiff.

I could finish it in clear coated carbon fiber. That would sparkle nicely in the sunshine. Ha. That’s a little over the top for me…
