olblue60- I think you're right and I think maybe the metal strips are deceiving and make it look like planks.
Joe67-Thanks for getting back to me, and good idea maybe I'll call Wes and see what he plans to do with his floor.
msgross- I'll get that in mind, maybe you could float them across Lake Erie and save me some shipping...
pritch- Some good ideas there, I've got a bit of time to figure it out but maybe insulating the floor would make sense since I do live in Canada and all. You sound pretty organized with phases and everything.....I kinda just dug in and now I'm try'n to dig out and see if I will be on the road this summer. I think Ive asked you before but are you planning on putting up a build thread?
Thanks all for your input.............Rob
