Finished my subfloor. Installed the bottom pieces of the front cantilever. No pics, but the bottoms of the 2x12's are skinned w/ sheet metal. I had a couple of extra pieces of 1.5" angle iron, so i scabbed them to an "outrigger" on each side of the cantilever, and screwed to the frame for a little extra support of the cantilever. I figure it can't hurt. I'm glad i remembered to run the trailer light wiring through the subfloor. Insulating the floor next, then plywood.

Subfloor insulated. Not sure it's Energy Star 3.0 quality, but pretty close. Trailer light wiring pulled out through holes at bottom plate area at rear.

3/4" plywood cut, glued, and screwed. Trailer light wiring pulled through plywood.

That's it for today, and for a couple of weeks. I've covered it with poly to keep the plywood and insulation dry. A buddy and myself are going to meet my son next weekend for some dove and, hopefully, pig killing. So it will be a couple of weeks before anything substantial gets done. Next step is to go vertical. I may have time to cut some pieces, etc. in the intervening evenings. I guess so far so good. Thanks for all the positive commentary. I'm figuring it out as i go. We'll see..
