I am making my own living quarters. I bought a 05 Featherlite 4 horse with a 6 ft short wall and a 10 ft long wall. What all do you think I could put in that space. I want to go conservative. Also where do you find your stuff to go in there the cheapest.

In 6' feet you can have a great deal. If you go to the Trailer for sale section of HTW and look at the photos of comparable sizes, you will find many nice interiors. We have a 4' with a weekender. It has a full bath and shower, fridge, air, sink, hot water heater, microwave, and lots of cabinetry. The folks we bought it from used it for weekly vacations.

Gard, can you post some pictures of your interior? I have a 39" shortwall that I'm considering finishing. Most layouts are the same, but it would be nice to see how others have theirs. Thanks!

If I weren't ignorant in my computer skills and knew how to post a picture, I'd try to help. Also my trailers are currently buried in snow banks and access is difficult.

Go to the trailer for sale section in HTW and select Gn, Exiss, three horse and photos. Go down the listings until you find weekender, 300, 4' short wall etc. Most of the listings will be a "Sports" model, but the interiors are very similar to my "Event", except they don't seem to have the cabinets at the front of the bed as mine does.

I have a Sierra interior which is usually described in the advertisement. Depending on where the LQ was installed, other conversion companies also outfit this trailer. You can see how they use the available space and compare which is more favourable to you.

We don't use this trailer for vacations, but it works well for an overnight or two very well. It's amazing how much equipment will fit in a small place, and how comfortable it makes your usage of the trailer.

I'm currently attempting a conversion on a 4' SW and I'm going to have a shower with porta potty, sink, fridge, microwave, cabinets, TV and a bench. I think I would kill to be working with a 6' SW right now instead. LOL!

It makes me even more excited to get a larger trailer in the next year or two.

Does anyone know where people are posting pics of their living quarter conversions? I am trying to see what I can add without taking up all of my floor space. That is important to me since I have a small child.

Here is a link to some trailers I have done, they are bigger than what you are talking about. I have done a few 4' shortwalls and they have turned out nice, I just don't have any pictures of them.

I'm finishing up an 8' shortwall right now, I'll get some pictures of it on here in the next few days.
