Mobile pen 8 of 17

On the front cross piece mark the center (55 1/1")

Then mark from each end of the cross piece 39 3/3" this should give you a 32" door opening.
Cut 2: 1 X 3's 68" lone, install on the 39 3/3" marks, Square it up, I use 1 5/8" coarse sheet rock screws.



When I ripped the 1 X 12 X 12's I left two boards (I am building five tractors)6" wide. Cut 1: 1 X 6 37 1/2 inches long. Screw this to the top of the door boards. Mark the center on the top of this "header" board. This mark will be used later to run a 2 X 4 front to rear as a ridge pole.
