My Country Peanut – Weekend of Progress

This beautiful warm weekend I spent about 10 hours working in Peanut. I was by myself Saturday and Sunday so I googled how to do framing and got to work (I wasn’t about to waste a nice day) I got most of the framing started for the fridge and installed the raised floor for the toilet.

Sunday morning I spent a couple of hours installing the wood look vinyl plank flooring. This is the second time I’ve used this product. They are really easy to cut and snap. So easy I broke one… thankfully I had a bit extra.

Today my dad came over and we continued with the framing. Leaving us only 4 braces to add before the wood siding can go on to create the walls tomorrow. And I began to add the shoe kick around the perimeter of the trailer to help secure the flooring and give it a more polished look. Once the walls are in the remaining shoe kick can go down. To give a cleaner look I used some wood filer to fill the holes and slight imperfections on the shoe kick created by the brad nailer. Once they are sanded down the trailer will be ready for paint (fingers crossed the weather holds up this week).

The progress continues with the next update Friday. Hope you are all having a fantastic week.

Stay tuned 🙂
