Check out MCSPIN50's gallery, page 1, near the bottom. She just did that. Run your mouse over the picture to see additional information in her comments pop-ups:

Yes its a pass through. It will have a screen . I thought it would make the cabin feel more open. The sink is a $5.00 ss bowl from cash and carry. Thanks Sharon for the tip. I think I too will use a hole saw.

Thank you all for the support. I have considered an album i just have not spent the time to figure it out yet.

This weekend I am making a pilgrimage to mecca ( Lil Bear). I will be different when I return.

I really like your build, if you don't mind could you post how much money you have into it so far. I am looking to build one but I am on a budget.

AJP,
I am trying to keep it cheap as i can. After the trip to Grants Im in $1200.00 not counting paint/varnish and glue. Not much more to buy. I did alot o looking and I think that getting the finishing parts from Lil Bear is the best plan. All the parts I got are great and reasonably priced, plus lots of good info from Grant. He is a super nice guy.

Ok so I'm gonna get some stuff done this weekend. Cutting in the windows and doors is on the list. Can somebody tell me if there is a standard gap between the door and frame if you are using Grants trim for the frame and t mould for the door? Or maybe I should just wing it. The thing is the only tool i have that isnt at my house is my table saw. It would be cool if I did not have to go back and forth.

I also did some decorations in the Galley. Some magazine pics dipped water and decoupaged on with acrylic varnish.

Having the lid on is a great inspiration. It has been hard to work on this thing in the heat. More to come. P.S. sorry I skipped taking pics of a few steps, but they were a bore anyway.
