Day 8: Getting to the rot!

Today was spent working on getting to the rot. After removing the lower skin on the left side I continue to be amazed that the camper made it home in one piece!  The back corner has nothing holding it!   We figured out what thickness of plywood we need to repair the floor and how it was all originally assembled.  Now we will be able to start the reconstruction of the structure!  Right now I feel like we are working on a house of cards! LOL! 
Oscar over saw todays progress while sunning himself! 

Working on getting the screws out of the skin...

Removing the first section of skin revealed the back end just hanging
because the structure is rotted through!

When you do not have a bit that fits the trailer screws...
you turn them into flat heads!

The skin comes off faster with two drills working at it!

I think the walls are a little drafty!

Removing the last of the J rail for the day!
Getting ready to button up the camper for the day!
