Progress

Wednesday, March 27th - Its Starting to Look Like Something
       Our day started by taping the gaps between the subfloor frame and filling with Great Stuff.

We spread and fluffed the wool insulation.



Then the subfloor top was cut and attached to the frame.




Tomorrow we begin work on the walls.


Tuesday, March 26th - It's Good Enough
      Today we flipped the subfloor into the frame. In anticipation we raised the frame and placed 2X4's under it.

We then attached ropes.

With the combined efforts of dad, Leon, Jenner, and Ben (I tried to help but I never bore any of the weight) the frame was safely lowered into the trailer.


Next a sledge-hammer finished the job.

Bolted the frame to the trailer.


Called it a day and drank a little beer.



Monday, March 25th - I'm Not Hating This
     Today we pieced together our subfloor frame. The wood was pretty wet and therefore quite heavy.



Despite the weight, Ben, his dad (Leon), my dad, and I lugged the frame to the trailer and hoisted it on. From there we caulked and screwed on the subfloor base and attached the flashing. We hit a high of four trips to the home-improvement stores!
