esterday I spent the day getting my wood work shop cleaned and ready for the cutting. I needed to cut 16 foot two by tens down to 9″9″ to further mill them down to make parts for my I beam floor joists.
I was left over with almost the right length for the center sections. With only an inch of waste. I wish I could tell you that I planned it that way. I was lucky.
After a couple hours of work including gluing up some cracks in the ends of the wood, I had some center section boards and some boards ready to rip into smaller boards to use as the tops and bottoms on the floor joists.
Once I have the parts then the real work starts. I start with a two by four that I finesse into the c channel bottom of the frame. Then i glue and screw a 74 inch section of two by ten to the two by four. That section gets bolted to the cross member.
Next step is to bolt and glue a 9″9″ two by three to the two by four at the bottom.
Now I am ready to add a filler board to the top of the frames rails that runs the entire length. Just about there now. I add some two by tens to the 
frame rails in order to extend the trailer two feet. They are bolted and doubled to support the weight.
All is left is build a few boxes made of two by tens. They will make up the outside the frame sections. Those will be bolted, screwed and glued to the rest of the I beam floor joists.
Finally the top two by threes are added to the tops crewed and glued. Hopefully when I am done I will have a structure that will hold the weight.
I hope that all was understandable if not leave a comment then I will be happy to explain.
I added some pictures from my tiny workshop. And some C&W I don’t usually cater to that music but some of you might.
