Last weekend was terribly rainy! Not at all the kind of weather we had hoped for. Consequently, no work was done on the Lil Loafer last weekend.
It was a different story this weekend with loads of sunshine, so in between attendance at various social gatherings, Jim was able to make further progress on the Lil Loafer's transformation. He worked on the other wall frame, and also replaced a section of the floor that was rotten.
I haven't contributed much in the way of skilled labor to the project thus far. Hopefully I will be able to do more in the future! I spent an hour or so on paint stripping this weekend, but was bothered by the knowledge that I was exposing myself to VOC's (volatile organic compounds). Maybe I should find a respirator/filtration mask....
Here are a few new pics. One day I'll have to get Jim to write the photo descriptions....mine are very basic and won't give you any technical information unless that information has been fed to me immediately prior to posting! Maybe he can even write the entire next post :) It might be a little more interesting for those of you who are restoring trailers of your own and want more of the 'how-to' details.
