Breaking the pics up between multiple posts.<br /><br />I'm a glass artist, which explains all the lampworking equipment - can't leave home without the hobbies!

That looks fantastic!

C C Gal, is that passenger seat on a swivel mount?
I'm asking cause I live in a E 350 and want to know
how you can see the mirror on that side. I would like
to do the same but my little co pilot vetoed that idea.
I've searched but there are no mounts in my price
range for a 2011 model.
Safe travels......

Looks good, (and full ;-) ) arnt you glad you got a bus?

 

[rvwandering]

&nbsp;Wow - nice job! Are you ready to hit the road?

 

[CrossCountryGal]

Retired Nomad - no, the seat isn't on a swivel base. &nbsp;I just flipped it around and bolted it down.

Ah, I see now those aren't wire shelves.&nbsp;

Looks Great!! (JEALOUS<img rel="lightbox" src="/images/boards/smilies/tounge2.gif" class="bbc_img">) &nbsp;The hobbies, just fun or profit too? &nbsp;Trying to figure a way to make money without having to get a regular job every now and then. &nbsp; I prospect for gold and gems, but that's not available nation wide. &nbsp;Did some beading (yes a guy) and ceramics, when I was in Germany, both where quite challenging. &nbsp;The beading would be more portable, just not sure about a market. &nbsp;<br><br>Rambling....<br>Great looking bus, maybe you should do interior design for non-designers like me.

Very nice set up.

"The hobbies, just fun or profit too?"<br><br>I have a shop on Etsy, and a decent local client base. &nbsp;I think if I devoted myself to marketing more aggressively I'd earn a lot more money, but then the hobby I love would become a job instead of my zen zone.<br><br>Lampworking is very portable - heck you can create on a picnic bench in a park if you're so inclined!

<br>Thanks for the tip about Etsy, have heard about it but had not checked it out. &nbsp;Interested in mobile income, I'm burned out on driving(commercial), have over 3 million miles behind me. &nbsp;Call myself semi-retired, but still working 40+hrs per week?? Like the "Wife, Mother..." &nbsp;I was a single Dad for several years, fortunate that my kids understand that dad wants some self(ish) time.<br><br>Rambling again.<br><br>Thanks for the response
