Wow! That trailer is looking more and more impressive every time you update this thread.
Thanks. Looks like I can't get that sink brand through Amazon in the US. I am sure there are some very similar though.
Countertop is in place! Material is 1.5"-thick bamboo, which I stained and finished. It's bolted down with about 6-7 M6 bolts, and screwed down with an additional 6-7 screws.
Water pump is a beast. Stronger pressure than what I have at home.

Sink is 15x17" - a fair bit larger than what we had in our previous travel trailer; it's also deeper, and has a very deep food-catch basket. It's a much nicer option than what's commonly found in trailers, and will be plumbed shortly.
I'll make some sort of fixture to secure the stove hookup so that those fittings aren't bouncing around in transit (and destroying the countertop). With time I'll also build a variety of cabinets/storage nooks all around, above the countertop.

Also made some changes to the sleeping plans. Over the course of the build we've changed the plans for this about a dozen times, but have finally settled on a setup that will actually work for us. We will not do the previously-planned staggered bunk-bed layout, but will instead have a north-south, queen bed in the main sleeping area, and an east-west bunk above it, at the far end. Fridge will live on a slider underneath the bed.
That looks absolutely FANTASTIC!!!! AMAZING JOB!
Are you going to fit storage under the bed with shock risers, RV style?
Sorta/kinda, but not in the way most RV beds are. The fridge (to be bought) will live under the bed and will slide out; beside the fridge there may be a drawer, or even a simple cavity for storage of longer gear (camp chairs, fishing rods, that type of stuff). This will all be under the passenger-side half of the bed. The driver-side half of the bed will have cut-outs that open up (probably on struts) and deep storage cavities below.

They may, I didn't even look.Amazon.ca won't ship it to the US?
I've bought (and had the items shipped to Canada) from Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, even Amazon.co.jp.
Thanks for the link. That one looks nice as well.We are using this sink from Amazon in the US. It seems pretty nice. Most of the same features. Probably all made in the same facility somewhere.
Sorry to hijack the thread!

What is the purpose of spraying silicone inside the drawers?
It is looking very nice.
Why did you have the exhaust go left (in the pic) versus straight out the back? Was there already a hole in that spot?
