Hi all!
Last summer (one year ago) I started building a SCAMP. I have gotten so much helpful info from this message board, I thought I would share progress with my own build...
First challenges:
Getting the kit from the curb to my garage on a 105 F day, racing against a thunderstorm. Solution: lots of trips and lots of sweat. I thoroughly bonded with the kit.
and...
Deciding how to proceed in a 19'x11' garage with a dirt floor - I put down plastic and built a platform out of 2"x6"s (4'x16') to screw the jig to, so everything stays level. In the space, there is about 2 feet on either side and a few feet in front and behind. It's cozy but works!
