Wouldn't have seen it if I hadn't been signed up for email'ed comments. That did get me thinking about square feet so I calculated my inside finished cabin and it came out to 165 sq feet with the 6 inch walls.tffnguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01830558433596399955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051650307488354823.post-4876696291116949392012-03-29T08:55:45.388-05:002012-03-29T08:55:45.388-05:00Congrats!

Seems like most of the really bad wind comes out of the north, northwest or west. The trailer will block the west and northwest wind. Of course if the trailer were to blow over like one did in my home town last week then that would cause a real problem because it could take out the cabin.tffnguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01830558433596399955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051650307488354823.post-45035071632692350392012-03-27T21:44:47.349-05:002012-03-27T21:44:47.349-05:00Looks great David - very happy for you that your n...Looks great David - very happy for you that your neighbours gave such a welcome hand :)<br /><br />Why not place the RV in such a position so as to block the worst of the wind on the new structure?Danihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04020970904311512357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051650307488354823.post-64724769486424947772012-03-27T19:23:41.679-05:002012-03-27T19:23:41.679-05:00Allen the answer is yes, but I plan to put in smal...Allen the answer is yes, but I plan to put in small 22 inch windows as I can afford them. They will fit between the studs, one on each side mainly for lighting and a cross ventilation. They shouldn't hurt the R rating near as bad as larger windows. A picture window in the front overlooking 9 points would be nice though.<br /><br />rj, I think its about 37 feet and as far as plans go for it I guess it will be the guest house?tffnguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01830558433596399955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051650307488354823.post-83693102778520679712012-03-27T19:12:46.783-05:002012-03-27T19:12:46.783-05:00DD, I guess we will see if it turns back in to a d...DD, I guess we will see if it turns back in to a dance floor after all the high wind here. I'd figure gusts around 50 or so, but at least they are out of the north so the rocking and rolling in this trailer isn't too bad.
