Sneak A Peek - Voyager Progress

Postby Classic Finn » Mon Sep 24, 2007 6:22 am

Well got a little done today... since the vinyl didnt arrive yet but got the Diamond Plating equivalent done on one side ... little trimming yet but ready to install it permanently and get the side lighting back on..I had to make a template there 1st and then cut to get it shallowed out under the door.

The other side will be easier to do since I have one made now.

I took a couple of pics to show you..Take a little Sneak A Peak.. :lol: :lol: ;)

Never mind the door its of its hinge yet..

Heikki
The trim looks really nice. Makes me think our tear needs some type of trim. (it would be redwood of course)
