Interior work came next - I used the pretty popular slim LED interior lights (Amazon item# B07PGV11HK), eight in all, daisy-chained. They fit perfectly in the small overhead space, and as a bonus they're dimmable.
To make the install simpler, I used these inline connectors (Amazon item# B07114RK67). Still a little bit of a pain, but it worked. Trusty hot glue gun gobs keeps the wiring from flopping about.
The storage cabinet takes shape. I sized it to fit most of our travel bags and such. A lot of routing and sealing, but it's solid. Most of it is repurposed Ikea furniture.
For a front-side flat surface, I repurposed a trusty old office desk top into a folding table. It can be used either at half-size or fully extended. Here it is fully folded away.
And fully extended. I wouldn't sit on it, but it's sturdy enough for anything we carry in there. I left it unpainted for now, it'll become a project for later, as I've been enthralled by acrylic pour projects.
The recessed butler folding hinges are Amazon item# B07PLSLWT4.
And the power supply - a Lithium-iron (Bibene 500W Portable Power Station CN505) unit that'll suit my power needs for 3-5 days off grid with a couple of sunny days when coupled to the 100W solar panel. I didn't want the weight of a full deep cycle AGM unit, nor the fire potential of a lithium-ion unit. Price/watt it was the right fit...for now.
Did I mention I went a bit overboard with the Etsy stencils...
No, I mean it...
And the floor - I sanded the birch smooth (180-220), then cleaned it, epoxied the full surface, sanded
that smooth, then covered it in mahogany vinyl...too bad almost none is visible under the bedding.
Vinyl is Amazon item# B08233XYMJ
More interior paint
And the front. Table is half-size folded.
One of the long-term goals is to have a composting toilet in the back area, sealed. To combat claustrophobia, I put in a spy window in the back wall.
Almost there...clearcoat time.
For once when spraying, I got the orange-peel just right.
Very happy with the dull shine. We'll see how it lasts.
