I used this velcro.. http://amzn.com/B00006RSP1

I did use some 3M spray adhesive 90 on it too just for s&g, but the velcro was definitely sticky enough by itself.

I used dupli-color bumper and trim paint. http://amzn.com/B00R244NGE

It's expensive, but turns out really nice, covers great, and the nossle is easy on the fingers. My only gripe is that you can't tilt the bottle much without having to shake it all the time.

So I started mocking up the cabinet. I made a template to match the curve of the wall panels.

I put in the motion lights today.

Also cut the hole for the heater exhaust

Now I'm ready to sand the cabinets, lacquer them, and put it all together. I'll probably do that tomorrow morning. Today seems like a good night to go out to a bar and talk trash to FSU fans.

motion lights are a great idea.

Cool on the motion lights. Haven't seen those on a van before.

so I finished all the cutting, sanding, and lacquer for the cabinet.

Plenty of room for wires and ventilation.

I used pipe insulation inbetween the panel and the window

I put down some felt to prevent splinters on the mattress.

so your bed will be across the back, what is the measurement between the walls?

5'11"

Finished the front piece today. Also threw up the lights under the toe-kick. I think I'm moving the toilet to the other side too. I mocked up the flooring to see how it is going to look all together.

Looking good!!

 

[sixstringsteve]

Wow, that flooring really sets it off. Looking great.

 

[gtbensley]

Lights under the toe kick are a nice touch.

I put in the shelf for the table

Got the 30 Gallon water tank in too.

Floor is complete

We finally got some waves so work as been put on hold.

 

[mk216v]

Whose water tank is that, Ronco?

 

[volcomsurfer]

yeah
