[QUOTE="daschmetterling, post: 407098, member: 20202"] It's been a little while since I've posted anything, but we have slowly been making progress. We framed the flooring using 1 1/4" x 1/8" aluminum angle.

The price was about the same, and we could just get the rigid insulation locally. Plus it seemed like it would be easier to work with. In retrospect, I don't know if it saved any time. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20160227_124218.jpg"]2[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="20160227_114507.jpg"]3[/ATTACH] We are keeping a channel down the center open to run wires through conduit, and to run the steering cables. The next step is to make a floor template and order the aluminum sheet. After a lot of research and debate, we are going with 0.10 aluminum tread plate (diamond plate).
