[@trejackson3777]

Good jobs guys! Take your time & keep up the good work.

REALLY enjoying your series. Very well thought out editing wise, and I'm liking your design ideas. Peanut from Tiny House Customs sent me here, so Hi!

Great Job!

[@redwhiteblue7831]

You said "Tell Us What You Think" Here's what I think... You both are doing a great job, and this project looks like it will turn out awesome... #1 I would've put wedges under each hole drilled in 2×6... Wood will split in a straight line overtime where holes are line up in a row( stagger the holes)...#2 When you put the boards down on top of the plywood, you should have put a nail or something to hold it in place, the insulation won't hold it... #3 Stagger the insulation, so that short pieces aren't on one side in... Thumbs up ur vid...

+RedWhite&Blue 78 : that's for the tips! Hopefully they'll help others who come to the video.

Rookie Roost... I watched several more of your build videos... very nice... I watched the video of the break up or something along those lines... I left a funny comment if you have a weird sense of humor like I do. Take care.

How did you guys do your sewer plumbing?

[@wheredidileavemycell]

the "brackets" that attach the base plates to the joists are called "hangers" the majority of the hangers are called concealed face hangers and the one that looks different are called face hangers. for this application, being that there is already a metal trailer frame holding everything up, hangers arent really needed. I would have predrilled the holes for the for the perimeter and then attached the joist with simple structural nails...then i would have dropped the subfloor into position and fastened it to the frame. assuming the hangers are Simpson LUC210z...those are pretty pricey.

[@RookieRoost]

That would have made sense to do, yeah. We definitely spent more on the house than would have been necessary, but I guess that's the result of our overall ignorance. The second house should be quite the improvement ;)

I live in W.V. where can I find a trailer like that close to me? And how much are thy?

[@RookieRoost]

If you have any custom trailer builders near you, there's where to start. They may not specifically build tiny house trailers, but you could work with them to design something. This trailer cost about $6000 Canadian - expensive, but worth it to know I have a solid base to build on.

The bird in the background is a varied thrush. I take it they are in the Pacific Northwest.

Change that skillsaw blade for a cleaner cut , it'll lengthen the life of the saw too . Less stress on it

[@RookieRoost]

It was a pretty awful blade... I'm far less rookie these days (at least I tell myself that).

[@DraculaxAlucard]

Is that the iron eagle tiny house trailer?

[@RookieRoost]

Sure is!

[@redsresearch]

wont that condensate between the insulation and the sheet metal?
