Building the Eggmobile - Chapter 2



Framing is nearly complete now. We still have some diagonal bracing to do but we're going to save that until after we get the weight of the roof on. We used 2x4s and bolted the walls to each other at the corners. The trailer still flexes and twists quite a lot. We're hoping that the metal siding and some diagonal bracing will stiffen it up.

The roof eve hangs over quite a lot on one side of the eggmobile. The nesting boxes will be mounted underneath this eve on the metal framing you see about knee high in the photo.
