Putting it Together VI

Hi Everyone,
My last post was about four months ago in February.  I've done a few things on the weekends since then but nothing major so I didn't think it was worth blogging about.  It's tough to work on this project weekdays since it takes so dang long to drag all the tools out and then clean up afterwards making it easier to just skip it until some other time.  Well the "other time" happened this past weekend/week.  I've spent 4-1/2 days out in the garage now and here's what I have to show for all the effort......keep in mind that I am very slow and meticulous about this stuff.

The kitchen area is now pretty much finished.  The sink and stove are hooked up and working.  The cupboard drawers and doors are installed.  The microwave area above the stove is ready and operational. That's an electric heater mounted below the two drawers.  The open space to the left of the kitchen area is where the fridge goes and below that is the space for the gas heater.

In the back of the camper I finished mounting the bin rack....it's on the left hand side of the picture. We use blue plastic bins for our clothes (that's one in the picture).  They're easy to haul into the house when packing and then you chuck them onto the rack in the camper. The same rack was used in our ancient motor home and we loved it, especially with handling the kids clothes.  To the left of the bin rack (but not shown in the picture) is the closet which is also finished now.



Above the dinette is where I spent a ton of time these past few days building out the overhead cabinets.  As you can see the center area is also where the window AC unit goes.  The doors aren't attached yet, so in the picture all you see is the face frame where the doors will be hung.

The pictures never quite capture what's going on so maybe I'll post a video one of these times.

Overall, a lot of progress has been made but there is still lots to do.  I'll probably schedule another extended working weekend sometime before fall.  Till then, keep cool.
