Thanks for that Micheal I think it may be the stuff I've already got I fixed my radiator with.
I'll have a bit of a look this morning

My q bond had all dried up in the bottle since I used it last witch almost made me cry after how much it cost me! But I still have the powder I guess.
I ended up getting some new supaflex loctite super glue and it worked great and works with the q bond powder for anyone out there in the same position as mes benifit
So I glued it up sanded it flush and it's a pretty good repair on the whole.
I've done a heap on the galley and 12 and 240 volt systems and will post some pics soon.
Galley is tiled with glass mosaics on the splash back, bit expensive but a tiler can't not have fancy tiles in his build can he.
Built the electrical raceway with a hinged down front containing the 240 and 12v gear. Almost done with the poly on the bench top and got a sink mixer but havnt quite decided on sink yet

The last kit i bought was on Amazon for 15 bucks. Two bottles of the glue and two of the powder. You're right, the glue is just common Cyanoacrylate, but the powder is pure Elfin Magic. ;)

That's crazy. I could probably ship it to you cheaper than that.

I know, everything's more here. You can buy an ARB diff locker that's made here for almost 50% less in the states.
Wages are generaly higher here but even so it's rediculous.i buy almost everything online from overseas.
My furrion shore power inlet is over 300 bucks here I got it for 50 us

Tile looks good. :thumbsup:

I like the wood counter ("bench"), but am curious if the gray you speak of might give it an even more contemporary look. That might be nice, too.

The faucet wand is a great idea once you have committed to an on board water system. If you don't mind a little mud around the back of your galley I can see it being really handy for a quick shampoo and splash-n-dash wash up. :thumbsup:

I picked up a 12 foot x 4 foot sheet of matt finish charcoal lamanex today for 50 bucks an cut a bit to size for the bench top but now I'm not sure if I like it :(.
Problem is I usualy know what I want and if I try to compromise I'm never happy.
It looks pretty good but I realy wanted to use 2 " square charcoal porcelain but it's 100 pounds of extra weight pretty much and I'm not sure where I'm at now.
Might have to take it up and weigh it soon me the ks

Dales, I do not know if this would help you decide and find a solution. Mobile home has to have some design compromise and some materials are looking really good, but they are not usually meant for travel and towing, for example granite kitchen countertops. I am not saying it is impossible though, everything is.
