Step 1) Build a new 8' x 16' deck on the nrunning gear.

Step 4) Add 1/2" OSB for roof. Leave gaps for soffit and ridgevent. Put screen over soffit.
Step 5) Frame out rear door.
Step 6) Add 6" overhangs.
Step 7) Add drip edge and rolled roofing with ridge vent. Cut out windows, add 1/2" harware cloth and trim. Make pop door. Paint.
