This morning’s project was to reinforce the interior of the C in the over cab bunk floor to give me something into I could screw the flooring:

showing the difference between the edge of the floor and the top of the padding

had to remove the ladder supports; the only way to get up there safely now is to climb up via the captain’s chair!

before, with the padding; it’s about a 1/4″ taller than the floor would be

No More Nails

now the floor can be screwed into solid wood that won’t split, unlike the edge of thin plywood

This would have been a teeny job with a powered saw, but took seemingly forever with a handsaw. I’m reluctant to spend the money on a new jigsaw when I’m so near the end of my renos and may never have use for one again.

Next, I’m going up into the loft to clean up a bit, finish the insulation, and get proper dimensions. Time is running out this week to get that plywood bought!
