The plan is to have it back together by Saturday afternoon, then run over to a backcountry stream that is known to hold some decent fish. If I can get the lid sealed, primed, and painted.

It will be a great time to go camping for about 4 days. If the weather holds out.

On deck.

Was going to redo my cap this year before putting the top back on but time got away from me.

Strong work.

I wish I had started a couple of weeks ago on it, now I'm trying to crunch as much as I can into a few days. It's doable, but I like having time to work on it peacefully.

I'm still planning to have it loaded and on the road to the mountains by Saturday evening.

While I'm redoing the gutter, I should really develop a better solution with the gutter clamps. They really gouge into the seam sealer causing it to fail prematurely. If I flipped a small piece of angle iron under the clamp on the top side, maybe it would help distribute the clamping force better and hopefully keep from cutting into the seam sealer.

I'm pretty sure that seam sealer also comes in white. I think that's what I used, in white.

I think the SEM comes in either gray or black, either way it's getting covered with paint so I'm happy.

The 3M seam sealer might cone in white, also the Dicor.

Probably a good idea. Even if the sealer came in white, the spray paint should at least provide some extra UV Sun protection for the sealer.
