Rather than add a new project, I have updated this posting.
This is the tiny trailer house as it looks now.
I updated the pictures on 12/21 to show the current state of the trailer house.
Picture 1 is the exterior, all painted ready to go.
Picture 2, 3, 4 are various views of the interior with the insulation installed.
Next up, close in the insulation and then begin electrical and plumbing. These will not be in the walls, since I may need to get to them again at some time. I will build coverings for them as I go.

Even Humphrey Pennyworth didn’t have one this nice. Those are double glazed windows aren’t they?

The windows are double paned, low e, vinyl framed glass. The should do a good job for me.

Thanks all for the comments. I added a couple of more pictures to show the door in place.
The plan is to use this for traveling to Alaska next year.

This is looking really good – I hope you have left the pace for the 2’ of insulation in the roof and 1’ insulation in the walls and floor – it can get a little chilly that far north :)

Bill, it would be great to hear about how this trailer faired on your trip to Alaska…how did it turn out?

Well it hasn’t made it yet. I am still building it. Everything has taken much longer than I planned, so no trip this year. It will have to wait until next year now.
