And so it begins....

Well i think i picked the hottest day of the summer so far to install the 3 right side windows. Although it was brutal, its a task that i have been wanting to complete for a long time. Tomorrow we will clean things up, and spray foam the inside windowsill just like doing a house.

Another smokin hot day here again today but managed to get the lower cabinets secured and the floor vents run..

I think the next big project will be to get the rear box doors off and the back wall built/installed.....we will see.....lol.

Its just been too hot this summer to do much......110 degrees with 60 % humidity just kills the desire to work outside.

Today its a touch cooler so i got the cabinets varnished/sanded/varnished again......did i mention my 2 least favorite things to do is sand/paint.....lol.

Alright, started the day off with top coating the roof with a covering of Henry's Tropi-cool, should seal things up and cool things down as the aluminum roof gets so hot you cant touch it. Hopefully ill get coat #2 on today as well.

Then on to a bit of cabinet wiring for the fridge/freezer so i can make the slider for it all.

A few more hours today to start the footrest/shoe box/step between the dinette benches. We dont have theatre seats like a coventional RV so the wife wanted a place to put up ones legs/feet.

...hinge will come later when we do all the dinette bench lids.
 
Finally getting to start the back wall.....its something i've wanted to do for a while but because im working outside everything take more time and planning.

Decided to use steel studs here as i will be mounting aluminum sheeting on the outside.

There will also be a lower access or garage door and the top section will hinge up allowing for an open concept. (Top is not done yet, sorry, just the bottom is framed so far).

Short work week for me, means a few hours to install the roof vent before it starts freezing at night.
