last of the pics for the steps

Final set is the steps. My buddy Kevin came over to lay out the tread rise. I have done it before but he has a lot experience than me and I had limited materials to work with, so I decided to get him to lay it out for me. I owe him a case of beer:beer:.

Next is the prepping for the primer.

Alright I have 3 sets of pics for you guys. First set is of the re-designed skylight/ excape hatch. Doing what I did should give me some more light and I think it will look better, but it did cost me a day or two :doh:. The next set is the preping of the inside for primer. I already primed...

Well today I stripped out everything that wasn't welded in. I sanded the decking and the side wall with the DA and 100 grit. Then I blew out the inside with the air hose. Finally I hosed it all down with the pressure washer. Top to bottom on the inside. Now it is nice and clean. I had been...

Thought I would mention the back hoe is gone. Sold it due to too many toys. I had no time to play with then because I was always working on things.

Thanks SSGLattig. Glad to know your a vet also. I was actually looking for something more like these and aluminum.

I've been looking at some of the other camper/rv builds. I have been struggling with the steps idea. Thought of building stairs myself since I have been using the kids pool ladder. I almost fell off the darn thing the other day. I thought I might try looking at getting a set of the aluminum...

Here is the rest of the pics.

A little bit more done this weekend. I spray foamed the areas around the windows (since I had to shim the frames out). I also filled some other areas I thought could use foam. After that I worked on the dinette table leg. I wanted to put a stop on the base. We are a bit clumsy around here...

Your right carbonmonoxide not dioxide. Thanks

Absolutly, I will have a co2 detector and a propane gas detector. The wood stove will have a fresh air return from a sealed opening on the roof of the camper. I know some of the newer wood stoves have them built in so the o2 in the surounding area isn't used up.

Thanks Hill, that is actualy the feel I was going for. Wait till it gets the little wood stove I plan on making. My little mobile cabin.

These pics are are of my repanneling and shimming the window frames. When I put the panneling in there was a 1" spce between the inside edge of teh panneling and the 2*2 Square tubing I used as the window frame. I decided to use 3/4 * 1 1/4 composit trim and then a piece of 1/4 * 1 1/4 wood...

These show the bathroom vent I am putting in. I have a 3" duct fan that will fit on the inside of the sleeve. The outside is getting a exhaust pipe flapper. I will use a rod to push the flapper open and then a string to keep it closed when not in use.

The next two pics are showing the pipe I am going to weld in for the propane. The pipe is just a sleeve for the gas line to run through. Once the line is in and mounted I will seal the sleeve with weather tight foam spray. The second pic is the lip I welded on the inside of the air...

Thanks Coldwarrior for the prays. This set of pics is showing the type of panneling I went with. I ruffed it all in and then out it came again.

Its been a while since I last posted. 2013 has been a bit tough on the family. We had to put down our big dog in late Feb, and then on St. Patricks day we ( me, the wife and the kids) were hit head on by a drunk driver. We had the big Chevy3500 hd, but it still did a bit of damage. Kids and...

ray, What is the scuba rubber? Is it the wet suit material? How about maybe roofing rubber. I haven't had a chance to get out to the deuce and do any work for a few days. I got a bit of a cold. I decided on the rest of the wall and ceiling insulation. I talked again with my friend how...

Ray, the cork flooring is actual flooring. It is said to have very good ware. I thought about the moisture issue with the hair jet also. I thought maybe lay some of the plastic/foam sheet underlayment, very thin about 1/8" thick. Then lay the jet hair. Over that I would lay vinyl flooring...
