Not too humble I'd say. I'll trade places with you! Very nice work and well on it's way.

Nice job, keep up the good work. I see you get dust stars in your photos too. Try dusting your lense. Danny :thumbsup:

seahorse,

Nice work! Should be done in no time. Is that formica where your outlets are in the galley? No cabinets in the galley? Are you going with just 110VAC or are you doing some 12VDC also?? In the shot of your interior cabinets, I assume that the bottom that is hinged is to provide access to the outlets in the galley? What is (or appears to be) the hinge inside the center section?

Kerry ,Formica is in galley.... also there will be drawers and hinged table etc. ... 110 vac only, as all area campgrounds have hook up.....yes, the bottom of interior cabinet is hinged for electrical access and a little storage.

Man, THAT didn't take you too long! COOL!

Is that 4 by 8 by 4? For some reason, in those photos, it looks like 5 high.

Also, I see you already have door edging on. Are you gonna remove it before skinning with the aluminum?

Ira, Yes to a 4x8x4 (hope I'm not sorry about the size, but seems large enough).......The door openings are trimmed, but will be removed before skinning. As far as not taking too long... I asked questions, and got GREAT answers. :applause: ..also read this forum like a book ,and took lots of notes.
