My new Customline camper

The kitchen begins.......

I have done all the upright bits and the top as well but no pics of that yet.
The gas stove is recessed into the top so I can put a board over it to have more level space.

I have a stainless round sink to fit and pressure pump but that will happen last.

Do you like the tyre tread? I'm hoping that will clean/sand off.

you are not suppose to park the car on the ply to clamp it together.

Mitre 10 sells the clamps you want,

Will the kitchen fit into your car?

Will it be ready for the next club trip?

Customline?

That's not a Customline.

This is a Customline:

It was the trailer actually I had the ply sheets on the garage floor and pushed the trailer back in on top of them. That is what happens when you live in a townhouse. Which is also why we are looking at a bigger place.

I have got some clamps but who needs clamps when I have nearly 100 screws holding it together so far as well as the Liquid Nails

It might be a squeeze to get it into the car but it fits the trailer fine. Well it should unless I buggered the measurements

Should be.

More kitchen progress.

It rained the last two weekends so nothing happened. I cut the hole for the sink today.
Next up is fitting a dividing wall immediately left of the sink. That should hold the weight of the water nicely. Then whatever shelves and doors. Then plumbing and electrics.
The drawers will be last as they're proving to be a real PITA.

Thats one flash sink

You sure your not going to do a granite bench top

**Utemad** · 26th August 2007, 05:48 PM

The sink was $20 from the Ikea damaged goods shelf

My SIL spotted it and rang me as she new I was after a sink. It was minus it's fitting brackets and has a small ding where the bottom becomes the side but is much better than what I was planning to fit. I'm pretty happy about it

That's looking good, what colour tiles you going with?

I'm watching all these campers closely, it's top priority when the house is finished.

You could dose the benchtop in varnish to waterproof the ply.

I was thinking of folding SS sheet over the little back bit and the bench top. However I thought that was going over the top just a tad.
I do plan to varnish the entire thing to water proof it from splashes and rain etc.
