Trailer Raising: Day 2

On day 2, the trailer kit we've spent months building actually seemed to go together pretty well.  The curb side floor was not very flat, so we attached the wall in the middle and used shims against our clamped wall holding boards to flatten the floor out.  The secret to these trailers is the the metal frame is actually pretty floppy...it's the unibody camper box that actually holds it all together.


The street side wall was actually pretty easy...just lift, hold and screw every 6 inches with 2.5" deck screws into the plywood, fir joists and the cleats.


 Since the walls don't stay upright without some help, we quickly installed as many of the ceiling panels as we had time to do.


Day 2, and it's starting to look like a camper again.
