FINISHED!
Actually .... Finished everything up today!!
Added a Aluminum topper to the wood slide out for easy cleaning.
On a side note .... no affiliation here or anything, but I got all my metal from Metal Supermarkets. Most everything was from their off cut pile including this piece of aluminum. Dont buy from the usual hardware stores if you can avoid it, this saved me a ton of $$$ --- just my 0.02c
Added some boxes and started arranging things around. Im sure I will change it to suit my needs. Overall happy with how this project turned out, and having everything in one spot is a nice change from taking several boxes out of the trailer.
The stove is fully removable, so im not limited to cooking in its current location if I dont want to
We are going camping toward the end of the month for Easter with the kids. Will let you all know how it does and/or changes that need to be addressed
In the meantime, feel free to ask any questions

Hey pal!
We hit the road July 22nd - can't wait!!
Will be doing a few test runs between now and then.
I noticed you posted on the Overland Expo east thread. I'm hoping to go to that too - we should convoy out there!

I actually got it off ebay. They sometimes pop up on craigslist too you just have to be really patient.

As long as you don't mind me stopping for gas.
Pretty sure my wife and will make it. Still trying to decide whether to bring the kids. Would be fun to convoy out.

I just ordered one for about $35. I've been working on a camp kitchen with a 1600. Still trying to decide on the material to use for dividers.

Love Pelican cases creative builds. Is it water tight? Did you make holes for lighting cables?
Let me share my build. Pelican Case sub for my DII:

Looks great. Love the pelican cases they are so universal. I have drilled a few holes for wires and such, but they are at the bottom and have been sealed with silicone so should be waterproof still. Will let you know after the 1st down pour!

Hell yeah man! I'll stop for gas if you don't mind slowing down for me on the hills!
Thats cool, post up your build when you start it. One of the ideas I had for dividers was to use 1/8" thick aluminum and use aluminum brazing rods to connect it all together. Would look pretty sharp, but would limit you on future changes.
