Finishing the trim on the dinette now that I finally rebuilt the table top. I still have the front pieces under the table to do, but you can see the idea. I should get them done this weekend before I leave to the Philippines next week. The white paint, as you would expect, gets all scuffed up from shoe kicks under the dinette.

Going to change the cushions to a black corduroy fabric sometime this winter also. Never done!

All done for the day.. ran out of trim. Need some 2" trim for the panels under the table, but they are up. Looks better and now they will not get scuffed up.

flboy, Howdy;

Yup, looks outstanding, just beware that the "Diamond Plate" that devoured Indy,
doesn't gobble-up the rest of the interior. :worship: :roll: ;) .

Thanks Hank.

Ok, done with this task. So much better than the white paint and I ended up getting all the plating on E-bay for $41.00. I still have some left. Not sure what I will do with that. It can get out of hand.

:-)

Finally making the shelf for over the sink up in the V nose. Another finish item I had been putting off.

Got to get some primer on, sand, and then finish paint. Should have it up soon.

Got it mounted up. I like it. Nice addition to the kitchen. Will be a good place to stash stuff when camping

Very nice, looks like you even found a way to snake power to a light under there!

Thanks guys. Just finishing all the little things I put off since it is fluff and not needed.

I do have an idea for some drop down drawers underneath the bed between the dead space. Might try to build one to test the idea in a few weekends when I return. It will give it a finished look under the bed and be useful for my clothes when traveling.

I originally thought of drawers as my beds base. But head room was an issue. Your CTC is taller so clearance shouldn't be a problem. You've got a lot of storage - I have almost none!
It's been cold and snow is trying to stay. Taz is still out in the cold! If weather is good enough I'm going to try ! But I don't think - 1. I can do it by myself, 2. Taz will fit.

Winter came too soon. I saw you got Taz into the barn. That is good! :thumbsup: I am going to try to build the drop down drawer next weekend. I will post pics.

Yes, but would be less stressful if I could get help. I should write down the steps. That probably would help too.
