To begin construction start with the floor.
Lay (2) 4x4 flooring sections side by side.
Make sure it is on level area.
Make sure the plywood is even before fas
-
tening!! If it is not you will have an uneven
floor, and it could cause problems later.
Screw the sections together. Put two screws in
from each side for a total of 4 screws, one towards
plywood and one toward the top. Repeat this
roughly 8-10 inches apart.
This shows that there should be screws
from either side. Be sure to screw close to
where the corners meet.
Continue adding sections till you have the
size that you need for your house.
Add (3) 4x4 pressure treated runners on
the bottom. Screw these into the joists.
Once this is done you can turn the floor
around and prepare to build on top...
