Steve, you're absolutely right. It's a tough act to follow but I'm not complaining. :D Thanks for the thoughts.

I'll try to do some rudimentary drawings in the near future and post them. I should really get some of that scaled paper for accuracy or learn CAD. I liked the way Doug did his drop floor, so wondering if I can do that to the frame on both sides, as I need the extra door for the attached potty shack.

Much appreciated...Randi
