Sure I could have spent a few weeks doing bodywork and it could have came out better but I am ready to enjoy this thing..... SO a quick backyard paint job works for me.

Mothers day update.

Updates updates updates. Haven't been able to work on the compact the last 2 weekends, life takes over sometimes... But now me and my misses are officially married :)
This weekend was pretty big for inside progress. Worked on the dresser and under counter storage....
This is the shelving for the dresser, This will be covered on the sides and have a door.
[image]
These are the baskets that will sit on the shelves in the dresser. I thought these would work pretty good instead of drawers, you can take them out, there lighter and quicker to make than drawers too. These are the Home Depot $8 baskets...

Now here are the slides for the under counter drawers/tubs.
[image]
We went to a RV show in Denver and thought this was a great alternative to drawers. Restaurant bus tubs, 15''x20"x5". Orders from a restaurant supply warehouse. All I had to do to modify them was cut the handles off...
[image]
Here is one with the handles still.
[image]
Here they are in the sliders....

I think the Bus tubs will really be nice compared to drawers as well.
Coming along!!
