This past weekend, Jack and I finished planing the fir boards. Each of the 3/8 rough cut has ended up being 1/4" at most. We're using about 11-12 slices per rafter. Now all boards to laminate are ready to laminate. We finished laminating rafter #5. Two more to go.
The trailer company is also working on July 4th-- and working my trailer! Two questions / issues are being discussed:
(1) where do you put a spare tire and a battery box? Here is what I hope will be possible: http://teardropsnw.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Tongue-Box-Spare-Tire.jpg
(2) I'm not a fan of aluminum looking trailers, I prefer black. So I'm asking Tom if this can be powder coated. If not, I may have to get over it. The rough iron supports are black and it would be nice if the trailer was too. I guess I could spray them silver but the look just won't be the same. What we will do for appearance sakes.
It is amazing working on interior details. The smaller the tiny house, the more planning is required. Details! I'm working on many phases all at once. We finished 80% of the dining table / utility closet this weekend, too. The design is complicated. We'll have to do a video just on it. Above the dining room table, I'm planning to install a stained glass swag lamp unless I can figure out how to replace the chain with a pipe/extension. Additionally, to keep the theme going, I hope to get a stained glass window for the door: http://www.alpineglass.com/shop/images/unknown/dragonfly.gif
