Looks really good Ron! Glad to see you get to this stage, and Im sure you're starting to get pretty excited. You've done a lot in a relatively short time frame. Good job buddy!

Thanks Poky, As I said previously, I couldn't have accomplished it without your thread help.PokyBro said:Shellback,
Turned out really, really nice! Congratulations!

That's the A/C D/C converter. 110 volts in, 3 breakers for 110 volts in the camper, battery charger maintainer, and about 10 fused D/C circuits.CougarCouple said:Hello Shellback
Wow that looks awesome, great job sir. I'd like to ask what is the small raised black panel below the fridge?

I used leftover material form the siding and sheared it to size and the used a brake to bend it at a 90. Fortunately my son has all the equipment at the shop he works at. I miter cut the corners and then just screwed it to the framing around the window.GoinBoardin said:That is looking really, really good!
What did you use for trim around the window openings? Mine are unfinished at the moment, and I like what you've done.
Shellback it looks great! The molding around the walls and everything looks professionally done!. The counter top too! Really nice job! Looks like the canvas came out okay in the end as well! Looking forward to seeing it in action. - Timshellback said:Got some more done. Covered all the plywood seat tops and backs with carpet and also upholstered my cushions. On the right is a couch that the bottom pulls out and the back drops down to form a bed 74"s by 28"s. That will be for my wife. The cabover bed is 78"s by 44"s, that for me. Now either of us can get up to pee without bothering the other . Winter projects will be to make natural finish wood cabinet doors and drawers. Also a small cabinet forward and aft on the passenger side wing. Forward on the left is the converter, water tank and pump, and also the battery. At present there is a A/C D/C compressor fridge, but no built in propane. I was going to wait on roof lift struts, but I'd like to get them on before the 22nd and our first trip.
Thanks! I enjoyed your video too!Living The Dream said:Shellback it looks great! The molding around the walls and everything looks professionally done!. The counter top too! Really nice job! Looks like the canvas came out okay in the end as well! Looking forward to seeing it in action. - Tim
ShellBack. That looks incredible! Very, very, professional. Good call just buying curtains and modifying them, we bought raw fabric, and haven't gotten around to it yet....shellback said:Almost read to go! Lift struts arriving tomorrow I hope. I was at the point of just taping paper over the windows for privacy on our upcoming trip. Stopped by Wallyworld and saw some curtains that might look good. They were 27"x84". Bought 2 pair and cut the top off for the right length for my side window. Then I hemmed the bottom. Then I cut the remaining portion with the bottom hem to fit my front window. Then I hemmed it for the curtain rod. Still had enough material left to do the one small window drivers side front, and also the door window. The wife likes them! Maybe just the cabinet doors and drawers left to do this winter. I placed my A/C D/C fridge where the original ice box was. Drivers side, just behind the window. Reading other posts about the efficiency of the top loader fridges, I'm considering buying one for next year and placing it up forward. It's kind of dead space for me now, with the battery, water tank and electrics under it. That would also free up the fridge space for use as a pantry area.
Our first trip starts the 22nd, for 10 days in VA. It's at a Army Corps campground with bathhouses, water and electric. No roughing it this first trip. We like to go this time each year, they close Oct 31st, so probably only 20% of the sites are occupied.
