Got ready for the bedroom panels. What a pain. But its done.









I'm so tired of fearing strips.

Started on the bedroom walls. Also you can see how they are bolted to the floor and into the box frame. And you can see how the panels are mounted to the steel with the glued and screwed strips. Had some problems just trying to glue to the steel. Now the problem is gone.

This is really impressive and I really appreciate you taking the time to post all of your work. You are giving me incentive to build my own conversion on a truck chassis of my choice. I was wondering a few things... Did you use metal slides on the drawers or are they just wood on wood? How do they stay closed? Are you planning on any kind of stain on the wood walls or covering them with something else?

The drawers are just hinged. So its more a drawer front. I used a push lock latch.

Will use steel slides for the kitchen storage areas.

As for the walls,I will do wall paper and ???. Still working on that with the Wife.

A little more.
Back work station counter and the over head cabinet.







Counter just needs 4 or 5 coats of clear ? What a pain ! MDF like the bath room.
