An up-date on my tear and some new pics

Postby legend lime » Sun Jun 24, 2007 9:40 pm

Well I was able to get back into my garage this week now that I am only working two days a week untill i retire this Aug, first thing I had to do was take two days and clean the place up so I could get in there to work. I completed the doors Friday and Staurday I removed the rear hatch and cut the 10'L X 5'W skin down to 6'L x 5'W then I spent the rest of the day sitting in the garage on my roll-a-round chair going over my plan of attack on just how I was going to attach the skin to the hatch. :thinking: And then Sunday it all came togeather.

Looks like you are doing a fantastic job! :thumbsup:
Also looks like it is almost ready for camping. :vroom:
We still have a few wires "hanging" in ours too, as we work on finishing more of the interior cabinets & lights. :lol:
Happy almost retirement. :applause:

Wow--you're doing great. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Still graced with two eyes and ten fingers (due in no small part to luck!).

Just when you think a problem is solved, an uglier result replaces it.

What kind of wood is that on the inside, it sure looks purdy!! Oh, thanks for the close up on the window trim. I've been looking for an idea on how to finish off my windows :thumbsup: .

window trim

Jeff
Sorry its taken so long to get back to you but I haven't been on the net for a while, the window trim is from some red oak I had left over from when I did the kitchen cabinets in my house, I ripped from some scrap 1/4"T x 3/4"W

Thanks
