    Todays Progress

    Well rained again today but got some more work done on my Rear draws..
    Today i got the Top of the frame on, made the draws and have mounted up all of the bearings and slides.
    Tommorrow i will make the front of the draws and mount the latches, Glue everything together, paint and get ready for carpet.. Once all done i will install the LED Lights and draw switches

    Frame together, bearings attached


    As draw sits at the moment in back of the troll
