Thanks Sharon :)

Some of the detailed woodwork, ideas and time, that I’ve seen on this web site is just fabulous. I just don't have the patience to do the fine woodwork that some have put in on their tears, or the resources. :)

Looking good! I really like the paint scheme. I didn't realize before that you were doing mossy oak inside... Thats a cool idea. It's going feel like you're sleeping in the woods!

Are you going to make it down to LCG4?

hey Wayne,
why don't you just run the design thru tthe door too. I think the doors not having it done like thay takes away from whole concept of the design and gives it a chopped up look....but that only my own thought on the subject. I like the triple design that you have going on and love the camper. :thumbsup: :applause:

Hey thanks every body.

I don't know about making it to the party. I don't even know when it is but I can tell you its deer season here and that will take the number one spot on outdoor activities.

I have some touch up to do to the paint. I used the blue tape and some paint still seeped under.

I think I'll paint the door as the suggested.

Tell ya' what, Wayne, for you not to be into the fine woodworking, that cabinetry and bulkhead below your bunk sure look good! Or did you carve up the dining room table? Mama's gonna' be PO'd! :lol:

Hey thanks Kelsey.

No, I haven't made it to the table yet, but she caught me looking at it pretty hard last weekend.

Minwax Polyshade.

I cut the wood in what ever I needed.

Sanded the wood.

Applied one coat of minwax. let it dry.

Lighty sanded the first coat.

Applied the second coat, and that's it.

Gary

He could pass as him. The woman is wearing a Salvation Army uniform.
It looks like a picture from the 40's.

Do you think whoever, was trying for that cowboy condo look?

Look at this. :o :o :o

Enjoy

I have a question.

I have been looking for tirm for the inside of my trailer. The trouble I'm having is in the 24" radus's the trim that I have tried so breaks when I try to push it in place. ANY IDEAS? I would like to finish the trim as my cabinet. I've been using Minwax Stain and Sealer / Polyshade. :) :) :)


All ideas welcome.
