[CCFD170]

How about 16gauge brushed stainless for the galley?!?! Spare no expense!!!

...Think my next step is im going to do a laminate floor...

I used a floating 'swiftlock' laminate wood look, it's held up well for about a year now and has seen some decent shakes and rattles without issues.

That looks pretty nice! Still tryin to decide on flooring hate to have the floor clash with the alder wood I am going to use. Soo many decisions

Not matching was my concern too, but it was free from a friend that replaced their flooring with tile. For free, it was close enough for me.

For what it's worth, other than to check on it, I haven't seen it again since I put the mattress in place.

There are a lot of decisions, we changed a ton throughout the build, used the generic benroy plans as a guide but modified a lot. I'm now in the process of looking for a better base trailer that will get a wider axle and new tires, trying to decide between buying or building.

When i typed in laminate floors on tnttt a couple of days ago your build popped up. Lol. I am more worried about it seeing it in the galley area even though you wont see much of it

Are you planning on putting shock absorbers on it? Only reason I ask is because our TD bounces around something awful on anything other than smooth roads. Since ours is all-wood I am worried about the joints between the sides and the top, that's one reason I don't take our TD off road (besides that, when I'm on an extended off-road trip I'm by myself and the TD isn't needed.)

Page 3 you can see the shock absorbers. Ride is pretty smooth with the shocks on and offroad

When I did my build I just used the 12x12 peel and stick linoleum squares. Worked great really easy and was able to wait till pretty much the very end to do it so I wouldn't have to worry about messing up my finished floor.

Nice setup!!! Is there a build on it? Nice h3 also.
I picked up some nuce laminate today at the HD that was over stock that is suppose to be scratch resistent for 16 bucks a box. Ill get a pic soon had to go take care of my 1 yr old soo didnt get to finish.

Thanks. No Build on it, unfortunately I had no idea about this website when I built it last year so I had no reason to photograph the build process.
