Insulated and flooring down.

Looks like fun
What insulation are you using?
I used R13 fiberglass on the floor. Not sure yet what I am going to use for the wall. From what I've read the old school fiberglass has a better R value than the spray foam. Although I'm sure the spray foam is a better sealer.
FG suffers from a pretty severe degradation in R value in mobile applications (it takes longer but still is an issue in stationary applications, too). Foam would be much, much better in three ways:
Sealing, structure, and consistency over the life of the house.
I'll have to look back into the foam. To be fair though this trailer will likely never move. I'm doing a bit of statist jujitsu. It cost a fortune in fees and permits to build a house but I don't need a permit to build a trailer. And my specific county will allow tiny houses as the primary residence. So it is an inexpensive temporary solution. The long term housing is to be a barndominium but I'm trying to get all my debt paid off before that. Then the tiny house will turn into an airbnb or a hipcamp situation.
Yup. I get that, but if I was building, I would use foam or rock wool.
Good for you for doing that. I will need to move to a more permissive area or in gonna end up dead because the local enforcers will be called to lock me up and I'm never going to allow that to happen.
I'm gonna need some backstory on this my dawg
How many acres do you have
35 acres which is the minimum land size you can have here to drill a well. I've been living here since 2018 in a 50 year old 14 ft camper so this thing is going to feel like a mansion. At least I'll be able to stand up straight.
You're literally living my dream
I think about this every single day
You should be proud of yourself
