A work in progress

Ok then. As we are wrapping up the frame and bracing portion of this job.
We had to add some substantial extra frame work towards the front. The 8' space from left to right across, originally and just 1" Hallow aluminum tubing. Over the time and rot it had bent downwards. I added a full 2x4 across the span with an aluminum plate gusset , pulled the deflection out and braced up in the center.
Not every job is the same. Always something different needs to be done.
Have a good day. Purple foam insulation is going to be installed now

The camper is a 2017, is a total loss, not due to the damage itself, but because of the blatant disregard for the roof's maintenance. The front roof's 6-foot section is compromised and sagging, while the center and both rear corners have rotted due to prolonged exposure. Although insurance will cover accident damage replacement, an additional $12,000 is required to rectify the entirety of the issue. Aluminum components are corroded, with pox marks visible on both the top and bottom of the siding, indicating extensive leakage over time.

Beefing up with framing and gussets, because flying apart due to thin aluminum and Styrofoam isn't exactly anyone's idea of a good time, right?

A fresh start unfolds with a blank canvas. The demolition crew crushed it (aka Me) - the bed frame and dodgy cabinets are gone. The Styrofoam and trash wood are history too. Now we'll chill and let the place air out before we start rebuilding.

The frustration of trying to carefully peel the skin to reuse. And it snaps at the worst moment. Seriously.

The thrill of ripping apart and slicing up a camper to get to the fun part of fixing and rebuilding
