Air conditioning

We got up this morning and we saw a Free rooftop ac unit on craigslist. The guy had no idea if it worked or not. 



                                 We get this monster and get it cleaned up in the driveway.



I get it in the garage set the top piece on some chairs, prop the middle on some ammo boxes and hooked the wires from an old  lamp to the power supply. Much to our surprise it works great and blows ice cold!

Outside paint.

I painted all that ugly brown a very dark black with a very lovely epoxy. I think it gives the RV a real updated look.

Return of the cabinets!

                                              Finally got all the cabinets done and back in.





                       

The table

The table was the ugliest piece of misused particle board I had every had the misfortune to come across.


For some reason the stoner idiots we bought the rv from wrapped duct tape all the way around the edges and underneath. After removing the tape I still can't figure out why. The sides aren't peeling off and there is only the tiniest bit chipped off.

After a thorough cleaning and a coat of paint we cut up a topographic map for the edges. Carefully Ironed them.


                                  Placed them around the edges the some elmers spray adhesive.


                                          Then we placed a lovely world map in the center.

                                Back out the the garage we put on  a few coats of  Spray on polyurethane.
                                               Finished great looking map table we can eat off of.


The fridge

In the Rv originally was a giant non energy star complaint. This power sucker was a big too large for our needs.
                      Through much anger and disassembly I managed to get the monster out.


 The giant filthy space after the fridge was removed.












Nice and cleaned up I managed to get $60 for it on craigslist.


 I then spent $25 of it on this slightly banged up but great running magic chef. This should in theory cut down on generator time and give us some much needed space above it to put in a new air conditioner.

The bathroom progresses . Goodbye yellow

                                 First off thanks to everybody we broke 3500 views today!                                          I had no idea people would express that much interest. I can't wait to see how the actual trip portion goes.



                          Thanks to this stuff out bathroom is no longer yellow. Beware the fumes are powerfull and                it over sprays like a motherfucker. Here is a before and after.

-Jamie


The result is worth the few hundred brain cells I sacrificed to fumes. I bought a cheap respirator before attempting this, I suggest buying one meant for fumes and not just dust or fiberglass. I expected the overhead vent to move more air. The over spray got everywhere including on my shoes and hair, glad I have not finished the wood floor in here yet!
