Hopelessly waiting for a good weather report and a huge shot of courage.

Looking great!

You could take the van to a local body shop and have them cut a 14" square opening for you. Bring the fan with you so they will have the exact size to work with.

If they are not busy they should be able to do it while you wait.

Then drive it home and install the fan yourself.
 
Very nice! I like the pocket organizers down there on the underbed section. Did you fasten them to the face of pull out drawers or some such?

Sassy,

For now they are held on by heavy duty Velcro fasteners. The cabinet they are connected to is a lift top storage bin with two compartments, one of which may house my batteries.
 
Absolutely elated that B/B withstood hurricane Nate without any leaks, thank you Van Gods! (Dicor)  :angel:

Have done a few more updates and wanted to share my progress. Please be kind as my carpentry skills are not as good as my desires.

Put in sink with fresh/gray water system and hand pump.

Thank you..... :p

The sink was found on Amazon and I fell in love with it's size and accessories. It comes with everything included all I needed was the connector for the gray tank. The sink drain screws into the Camco camper drain and then to the gray tank of choice(i am using an empty kitty litter jug) The hand pump sink was also from Amazon and it is connected with simple clear tubing that pulls water from the 6 gallon fresh water container that was purchased at Walmart. Installation was very easy and took about 2 hours. The sink comes with a template which made placement and cutting much easier. One big piece of advise: Place you gray and fresh water tanks under the cabinet while deciding on layout as the depth of this sink may change how they will fit.

 I will attach links for items below.
