Part 3:

Minor update, we had no snow.... then a typical Colorado "1-3 inches" after a 69 deg day.

(For those not in co where I live we got around 8 inches some did melt).

I realized I forgot to mention, I will also be making and installing an automatic transfer switch so that if I do plug into my block heater via an external outlet, it will not back-feed power, into my generator ( really easy, a 120v relay [single or double pole, double throw].

I built the wood frame, did not have time for the walls (yay daughter friends birthdays.... yay ) I had one wooden divider in my bed [ for those that do not know your OEM bed (assuming it came with one) has slots (3 or 4 pairs, depending on bed size) for wood dividers, if you use the right size wood, you can lay down flat a piece of plywood as a flatbed, and have no wheel wells to deal with! ] now I have 3! (yay home depot 70% off damaged lumber) one piece was slightly wARPed others had knots that I cut out.

If I finish the walls tomorrow I'll just edit them into this post.
