Well it has been a busy week or so and we have made a lot of progress, the deconstruction at this point is about 90% complete.



Here you can see Susan working on the front end.  You can see that all of the wooden structure has been rotted.  This was true of just about the whole trailer.  It was amazing it was standing up.


This is the roof and it was removed.  We were not able to remove the awning screws on the other side so I manhandled it with a crowbar, no loss since the wood was so badly damaged.  We will have to find an awning track but there was no way to get it off.



Did a lot of measuring and drew a complete plan of the trailer for rebuild.  Had to measure from the metal since most of the floor was rotten too.


We were able to get the roof off without too much trouble, not so confident about getting it back on but too late now.

It took a bit of pulling, pushing and sawing but we were able to finish by the end of the day.

Meanwhile, we have been starting to understand how to repair our windows, Susan is working on the cabinets and I am planning the electricals.

I know a great trailer person and the trailer will go in later this week for repair and make sure it is sound.
