We had a real nice day on Friday and I was able to get a bunch of stuff done. I got the doors skinned and the trim installed.
I tried them in the openings and they fit sooooooooo.....I just had to try the hinges.
Image
Image
The Tintanic is beginning to have that "Let's go camping" look to her.
Image
I also got the antenna mounted and the cable TV inlet installed. I had installed the power inlet (Furrion) a few weeks ago.
Image
I still need to skin the hatch. I had hoped to do it today, but our forecast is for heavy rain and storms all weekend.
Image
I love the looks of these hinges. I had ordered the offset piano hinges for the doors originally, but after seeing aggie79's
doors on the Silver Beatle, I had to have them.
Image
Well, no rain yet. Maybe I can squeeze in a few little things before it starts.
All the best,
Bob (& Reggie)

Tom, I thank you.I learned a great deal from your build, and turned to your build journal when it came time to do certain things on the Tintanic. You've said there were no original ideas, but you sure assembled the best ideas from the site into one place. You could offer your journal for sale to builders around the web, and I believe it would be a great seller. Thanks again.
All the best,
Bob (& Reggie)
