free to good home: Pennsic house or parts thereof

[cellio]

Please share a link to this post with any SCA (etc) or tiny-homes people you think might be interested.

I have a house on a flatbed trailer. It lives at Cooper's Lake in western PA, where Pennsic is held. When I set out to build it, I first got Dave Cooper's approval of the plans so there would be no issues with using and storing it there. All was good. But times have changed, there are new people with new business interests running Cooper's Lake now, and many of the "old" trailers, including mine, have been evicted. In my case, my trailer has to be gone after Pennsic 50, this August.

The trailer is not road-legal; it's only been driven on Cooper roads for the last 20 years. Legality aside, I doubt the trailer would be safe at real road speeds. (The campground has bumpy dirt roads and traffic moves at 5-10MPH.) It's not practical for me to disassemble the house and rebuild a smaller version of it to take to and from Pennsic every year: I don't have the storage, the towing vehicle, or the fortitude. I don't think I'll go to enough more Pennsics to justify all those costs.

Perhaps you have those things, and interest? Or perhaps there are parts you can use?

Parts of the house are in good to very good condition and could perhaps be reused for a different building project. The roof was new in 2019, put on a month before I got the eviction notice (sob). It's made of ABS pipe, cut to look like tiles, and it does a good job of both protecting and cooling the house. I can talk more about its construction. The loft floor is made of 2x4 tongue-and-groove whitewood and, being interior, has not been exposed to the elements. The doors are in good shape (you probably want to refinish them). Some other lumber can probably be reused for the right project.

I would be sad to trash all this if there's someone who can make use of it and who can come collect it in August. I'm not looking for money; I want to reduce waste.

Edit: Exterior dimensions: 10 x 20 feet, 16 feet high at the ridge on level ground (the trailer is two feet of the height).

Hello person who keeps leaving comments in Japanese (and very occasionally Chinese and English):

I don't know who you think you're talking with, but I'm not your friend, travel agent, or whatever, and this is not a text-message app. I can't help you with your trip, and after a couple hundred comments, I would have thought you'd have gotten the message that you are in the wrong place. Stop it.

I didn't actually get any emails - maybe because the comments were never let through? Anyhow, sorry about the attacks.

Oh, good! I wasn't sure if you would get email while the comment was still screened, just because it was a reply to you. You would have gotten at least 50 of them, as would one other commenter (lots came in while I was sleeping). I'm glad you were spared that.

It's pretty surreal -- messages in Japanese that sound like half of an IM conversation, except that doesn't make sense absent the other half. Somebody is trying really hard to plan a trip... in my comments. Very weird.

No new ones since my last comment, but that might be time zones (commenter might be sleeping). I wonder what will be waiting for me after Shabbat.

It looks like the attack has stopped or been blocked, so I'm unfreezing the threads I had previously frozen.
