Work underway at the farm

Work is underway here at Two Filly Farm (our workshop location).

While I have been working on the space and settings for the workshop, Amy has been hard at work on her tiny house; she spent last weekend securing the vapor barrier and protective metal to the underside of the trailer. My dog, Mija, has been one of Amy’s biggest fans. She spent much of her weekend under the trailer, too.

Amy also cut in two of the three layers of insulation – I even got to help a little with that part.  Here is Amy using a hot knife to trim a little piece off one of the sheets.

After deciding to bump the walls out 6″ on each side, we talked about how best to support the weight. I designed some brackets, had the pieces cut and have been enjoying some welding time. Watch for ready made Build Tiny Trailers in the near future.

While out at a charity horse ride I ran across this powerful tiny house. The couple who own this beast are touring the US for 3 months. They brought their house on wheels with them from Belgium so they would be comfortable while traveling. Traveling tiny is an international phenomenon!
