Picked up the trailer from Iron Eagle. Thanks Rob! I opted for some trailer additions: 22 gauge steel floor pan and some extra fender flashing to help prevent moisture invasion. Luckily my sister volunteered to let me start my build in her huge garage. It rained all weekend and the covered build site is fantastic. Here is the birthplace of Misanthrope Manor:
then I frosted the whole thing with this stuff:
I used it to prevent thermal bridging. The trailer is metal and cold and I didn't wan't that temperature leeching into the house. Also I'm hoping it will be an added moisture barrier between the cold metal and warmer wood. Here is the end result:
I also bought some 2x6s for the subfloor framing, roxul insulation, a vapor barrier, screws, extra bits, and some simpson strong ties to attach the short floor joists to the longer floor joists, maybe, I'm still working on the vocabulary. The first small step felt huge. Next weekend: floor framing.
