Build Day 21

Posted by van on 11 October, 2009 00:40

After a bit of a break on doing any work on the van I finally got back to it.  The first order of business was working on building the bathroom. First task was to take up the carpet in the area where the bathroom is going to be and put down the lino.  Next we shaped the wood we are using for the front and rear walls to the bathroom.  With the van having no right angles or straight lines this is but hard than you would think.  Also one of the walls must go over a wheel arch which does not help.  One of the side wall to the bathroom is the side of the van which is curved, to make that wall water proof I using plastic sheeting, it is not too bad to fit, however I don't have enough to finish the job which is a bit of a problem. So a shoping trip is needed tomorrow.

To fit all the walls together in a water tight manor, I'm planing on using some plastic track, so far it looks like this might work quite well and hide some of the rougher edges to the wooden walls.  By the end of the day most the walls where bit a we roughly fitted it together to check the fit, so far so good.   It's not fitted permanently together yet as I still need more plastic sheeting to finish one wall and the ceiling.
