Houseboat build, pg4...

Lots accomplished on the houseboat project! First, here's a "toilet paper drawing" of the floor plan and houseboat layout. Lots of time was spent on the design, changes, and finalization. We now have the remainder of the flotation devices and interior appliances selected and sourced. It's amazing how much one can cram into a "tiny-house" of this size. Here's my crude drawing...


We got the lower tracks installed for the outer wall structure, and got much of the vertical walls in place. Next, metal 2x4's will be used to frame against the interior walls, and the upper track installation will really strengthen the structure. 







The last photo shows a prototype metal stud installed vertically in the corner. Next, I have to cut, fit, and install around 32 studs like this.
