well, got started today on the chassis / floor. took some photos , but my camera was set to 1600 x 1200. will reset the camera and take some more photos tomorrow. got the perimeter cut, fit and welded. boy is my aluminun welding rusty. oh well, guess i needed to brush up anyway. will add some stringers tomorrow. bare weight without the tongue or suspension should be less than 80# for a 14 x 7 foot frame. more tomorrow and if i can figure out how to upload pix, ill do it. later fellas. regards, j.d.

JD, here is a very easy to use tool called Irfanview...a tutorial is include in the link http://www.somewhere-in-time.net/tutorial/irfanview/

...if you are using Windows XP, here is a program to add resizing as a right click with your mouse...scroll down to "image resizer" and install...resize any pic on your PC with a right click...
