    Sorry guys, It won't allow me to upload any more pics. Keeps telling me about the 10 pic limit. I will try again later.

    Extreme RV from M36a2

    Here is an adaptor I bought to allow me to plug into a standard 110 outlet. I can run just fine on the 15 amp outlet, so anyone that wants me to come and visit will have no problem supplying a little power to me. Kind or reminds me of the Griswolds Christmas vacation with Chevy Chase.:naner:

    Sorry for the upside down and side ways pics, Not sure why the uploaded like that. Now the electrical configuration is simple. Bath room has a three switch box. It is the box on the cab over 2*2 brace. Top switch works the Bathroom light. The bottom two work the outlet in the last pic. One...

    Hainebd, you obviously don't know my wife. Baths are not an option. She can get very very mean. Thanks farmer, We hope to get up to the fall rally this year. Now more pics of me setting up the electric. I decided on the 50 amp set up. I didn't like the idea of getting a 50amp to 30 amp...

    Extreme RV from M36a2

    We just got back from a week trip camping. It was a success. We had a great time. I learned we use a looooot of water. 84 gallons goes quick with four people taking baths. Also learned we have to get better organized. All in all we had a lot of fun. Hot showers felt really good. Still...

    You might have noticed the center column 2*2 square tubing. That was a after thought. I actually noticed a 1/2" sag in the roof. So my engineering genius thought of doing this.[thumbzup] I guess a smart person would have used a better beam to spread across the front, but then half the fun...

    Next set of pics is the cab-over flooring re-do. I used 3/16 aluminum sheet metal with 3/4" foam board. The surface facing the outside is coated with rustoleum flat black truck bed liner, for looks only.

    Extreme RV from M36a2

    OK as promised, here begins a night of pic downloads. The first set of pics is of the water hook-up. Water lines, holding tanks and pump. I had a **** of a time getting the corrugated fill line to fit over the fittings. I ended up using a pipe expander to stretch out the hose a bit.

    Extreme RV from M36a2

    No problem with entertaining. Glad so many people like the build. The family is planning a camping trip in the next few months, so the push is on. Wifey needs the water and electric done. I installed the aluminum and actually I have no more room than I started with. I added some 1/2 inch...

    PA - Spring 2014 Rausch Creek Steel Soldiers Rally

    I would love to join all of you again this year. The M36 shipping container 10,000 is ready for the trip, but work this year won't allow it. I haven't even told the kids about the spring event, because they would hate me more than they do already. I haven't got much more done on the truck any...

    Extreme RV from M36a2

    Well it has been a bit of time since I last posted. I would love to say I have gotten a lot done, but no one likes a liar. I did get the aluminum for the cab over floor and the tailgate extension section. Surprisingly the aluminum for the cab over was heavier than the 3/4" osb board. I am...

    Extreme RV from M36a2

    Thanks razor. I'm going with the 50 amp because I feel safer having a 50 set- up and having to use a 30 to 50 adapter than having a 30amp set- up and using a 50 to 30 adapter. Just worried the adapter wouldn't work and the 50 amp power source would fry my 30amp system. Plus I already have the...
