    I'm looking forward to watching more updates! I can't see your pictures in the forum at work since all the image hosting sites are blocked. So I'm following along purely on youtube!

    Would you happen to know how tall the trailer is at the highest point?

    Put a nice finishing touch on the front lip (the romex is just jammed in there to keep pressure on the flooring while it dries)

    All I hear is motivation to build! Screw the high rent; build camping trailer...move into the trailer, live in Wal-Mart parking lots! :boink:

    So, still thinking you'll meet your Easter deadline?

    Damn right I am going to meet my Easter deadline. Anything else is failure! (Although there will always be things to do to make it better)

    But seriously, I am putting in work. Look what I did today:
