Roof for the trailer

Hello again

There is a problem with the trailers roof.  A mat plastic within the white frame looks really better than a clear plastic. but the second enables a far better view of the indoors.

I have not yet glued it on and ask your opinion.

Mat roof which allows light but not view.




Clear roof  which allows both light and view but looks somewhat unfinished.





I left a few items to be finished at the meeting scheduled for the 31st of Jan.  Unfortunately I shall not be able to take part at this meeting.  We got notified that a minor operation for my husband will be
on this same date.  It was a long waiting list and we don't want to miss it.

On the other hand I'll finish this project within the next days and send photos to the group.  In
return I'll get theirs.  I'll be very sorry to miss the company of my local friends.

Will soon post again showing photos of the finished project.

Have a wonderful weekend! Blessings!

  1. La decision del techo no es facil...si el se aprecia el interior...y con techo queda todo escondido...igual dejar un techo de quita y pon.

  4. Hola Drora! Siento la coincidencia de fechas, qué rabia, siempre pasa igual... espero que la operación vaya bien y nos consolaremos viendo las fotos de la reunión local. No te disgustes, seguro que pronto surge una nueva ocasión para reunirse. A mí me gusta mucho más el techo transparente, me encanta que pueda verse el interior. Quizá para paliar esa sensación de inacabado podrías añadir alguna decoración a los bordes o también, simular un toldo de tela que puedes dejar recogido a un lado. Sería una caravana descapotable :), no sé si será posible hacer esto. Un abrazo

  6. Like the idea of light coming, yet private. I think it would be fun to have to peek inside . Completely open seems to look unfinished.I

  7. Hmm, hard to say. On one hand this clear roof makes possible to see what is inside. But then again maybe you could use roof you like more and just don't glue it firmly to the trailer? I wish your husband safe operation and fast recovery.:) Hugs

  8. I would also find it hard to choose the roof. It is nice to be able to see into it it is so wonderful. I will keep your husband in my prayers and hope all goes well and wish him a speedy recovery.Take care.

  9. I like the mat one, it looks better. You have the front open to see inside, so it is not necessary to look through the roof

  12. Que pena que coincida la intervención de tu marido con la reunión,pero es importante no perder esa consulta,espero que todo vaya bien!!!
    Ya veremos las fotos de la reunión!!
    En cuanto al techo,desde luego es mucho más interesante que se vea el interior,por lo que yo me decidiría por el transparente ,para que no parezca inacabado,puedes hacer algún pequeño adorno,incluso una tira de color en el medio del techo,estoy segura que encontrarás la mejor manera de terminarlo!!!
    Besos.

  15. First of all I hope all goes well with your husband's treatment... sad that you will miss the miniaturist's meeting but of course this is no thing to even think about, your husband's health is of course more important. About your trailer roof - I see your dilemma and I think both versions have their pros. I think I would go for the clear one because it would be somehow a shame if the lovely interior could not be seen with all its details anymore. But I have a question - isn't it possible to do both? The white one as some kind of lid above the clear one? So you would have a realistic look while the trailer sits on your shelf and could take off the roof when you want to look inside...

    Hugs

  16. The question about your roof is a tricky one. I like the way it is with the mat roof, but the second solution is good too because you can see inside. I think I'll go for the mat roof in the ned, it looks really finished.
    I hope your husband will be fine.

  17. I agree that the transparent roof is an excellent solution, it will be easier to see the inside!

  18. Hi Drora! First of all your husband's treatment goes above everything and yes, Drora it's sad that you'll miss the miniaturists meeting of course, but your husband's health is of course more important. Regarding the trailer roof: I agree with Birgit, so I would make two roofs, one transparent and the other like a sort of lid above the transparent one. And now I'll copy her: this way you would have a realistic look while the trailer sits on your shelf and could take off the roof when you want to look inside.
    Warm hugs, Ilona

  19. Hola Drora, yo también opino que sería una lástima tapar el interior y la opción del techo transparente me parece genial.
    Espero que todo vaya bien.

  20. A mi me parece más bonito el primer techo pero con bisagras para que se pudiese elevar. Espero que la operación vaya fenomenal.

  22. Difícil decisión. Una posible solución sería que el techo fuera movible para poder ver bien el interior.
    Espero que la operación de tu marido salga bien, es una lástima que la intervención coincida con tu reunión `pero otra vez será. Un beso.
