Toter home build

The wife and I will be going over ideas for paint when we get closer to that point

 

[Fullsizexj]

here we go, passenger side with all the vinyl removed except for where the window will go approximately

drivers side with bottom vinyl removed so far, still lots to go but that is how far I have gotten so far today

Sitting here waiting for places to open so I can go pick up materials. Today I get to go back to work on the inside. Hope to make some decent progress. I plan to finish framing out the floor and mounting it down for good and get the insulation down also. Once that is done I can start roughing in my plumbing.

things I do when I am board and waiting for Lowes to open

well, I have the floor frame work all bolted down now and did the insulation on the floor. Next is to start roughing in my plumbing and electrical so that I can button up the floor, also did some trading yesterday afternoon for some cabinets and overhead cabinets, I will probably have to modify them some but it gives me a head start and also gives me all the drawers I will need along with the roller hardware for them. Now if I can get the guy on craiglist to respond about that Fridge/freezer unit. Why do people list something without a phone number I will never know. I ordered my water tank fill kit today. Gives me everything I need to put the fill opening on the out side to the tank and to my pump all in one kit. It is like 29.00 bucks but a whole lot cheaper than trying to peice one together.
Here is a pic of it, even shows it hooked up to a tank just like mine

the window's crooked

Thats what thought when I saw the pic but I measured it several times to make sure and it is right, just the angle of the pic I guess

Will you have the ability to hook up to water or will you have to keep refilling the tank?

I am doing it so I can run full hookup or self contained

A neighbor came by with a Colman generator yesterday, Now I will have power no mater where I am. Now if I can find me a fridge/ freezer I will have everything I want for it. For now I am just gonna use the Icebox out of my old slide in, I plan to make the cabinet for it tall enough so I can always upgrade to a taller unit later. I am gonna have the propane and all the electrical for a 2 or 3 way in place so it will be an easy swap later down the road when I find one for it.

This is coming along great. Keep it up.

The wife and I have decided on an Almond color for the whole thing and are gonna run around a few camper sales lots to come up with ideas for graghics. This is the one that inspired me to go ahead and do this

Any more pictures of this one or a link to it?


Also, can you get Alcoas for your truck? Would look so much nicer with new wheels.

this one is done by Mt4runner over on Pirate4x4, just do a search of his username to find his thread on it, I am not gonna spend any money on rims, these will work just fine for me

 

[Fullsizexj]

I think I am gonna go get the plywood for my floor today, This way I can get it all cut and fitted so that once I get my plumbing and wiring roughed in, I can just srew it down, This will also allow me to start building my cabinetry and fitting all the stuff that has to be built into it such as the furnace and hot water heater. I have pretty much decided that all I will use of the cabinets I traded for is the drawers and sliders for them along with the doors and hardware for the counter area, the overheads I will probably use as is since I do not need to fit anything into them. Been doing some measuring this morning to see how things will fit. Turns out I will have the same space and layout that my slide in had only I will have a deeper counter is all which will be better. Just gotta get ready and head over to pick up some plywood now. Pics to come later today

 

[Fullsizexj]

Here we go,first is the generator I picked up for $75.00

and then all the cabinets

and now the plywood cut and layed down for now

Look good! Don't for get to make some panels to access the tanks, you'll need it when you go to winterize.

Trust me, I plan to make access points for everything on this

 

[bmyohn]

Just making sure. You'd be suprised what I have had to work around when trying to winterize boats. Boat manf. don't really think that far ahead sometimes lol
