Trough
Kerry,
That's an interesting way to form the trough for the weather strip and drainage. I have yet to tackle a similar problem on my teardrop trailer, and will likely use the method. Are you planning on using some sort of seam sealer on the bottom? Thanks for the post.

Most definitely! I'll use it to seam all the edges. For your teardrop, you could probably make a U shape or even a U shape with a flange and curve it with a Pullmax die. I can't do that as easily because it's a compound curve...but I might try.

Joe Hartson just called me with a way to shape the U that sounds perfect. It's simple but difficult to explain. I'll document it and see if the photos help explain it.

I remember when this project was still just a group brainstorming session on the old site. It's looking good!
*cheers Kerry on*

Not really Mark. Per and Jim Hery did some bumping and smoothing during Dixieland '13 but I've been tied up with life....
