Fascia Mania!

 
 Starting out the day Jacob, Marie, and I worked on leveling the Gypsy Shack. First we had to get it off the blocks, and lowered down on the wheels and corner jacks. We decided it would be easier to level out the trailer if we kept one cinder block under each jack. After much finessing on Jacob's end the trailer was declared level! (for now)



Then came stage one of the fascia! We measured and cut all of the 2x4's to fit around the trailer frame. Then Jacob used the router to cut the slots in the 2x4's so they fit snugly around the welded bolts. I marked out 16" increments in the fascia pieces and drilled countersink holes in preparation for the final step of gluing the wood to the trailer, and then using the self taping screws to secure it in place. Hopefully by next weekend the fascia will be fully attached and we can move on to floor insulation!
