My apologies, yes the wooden framework is structural. Over here in New
Zealand we have 'Travellers' with stick-on fake wood paneling that is
applied (applique) between the framework. I guess the accent didn't quite
come out as expected. I was indeed under the cloud that the applique was
being described. But hey accents are one thing that Bill Gates is still
working on...
Thanks to all for the info. I think I have enough to get the project
underway now.
