Weekend update.
I got a lot done this weekend. I got three of the four interior panels made and covered in vinyl. I still have one more panel to make, but I ran out of wood, so that will be next weekends project.
I am finding out first hand that rv`s are put together very poorly were ever the factory can cut corners to save a buck.
I can understand this to a point, but still ???. The wood trim pieces I am remaking are substantially better than the factory pieces ever were.
It can take up to four hours to make some panels from start to finish, and the more simple flat panels about two hours. It`s not that its hard, its just time consuming.
This is one of the original panels, you can see how poorly done the bracing on it is.
This is the new panel I made, notice that the bracing is substantially improved.
This is the panel I made covered in vinyl and finished.
Originally the speakers were not located in these panels, they were next to the passenger seats on both sides, but the seats covered most
of the speakers, and the seats rubbed on the speakers causing a squeak.
The back side of the panel.
On the back of this panel I added an extra piece of half inch plywood because my tv mount is going there, so I wanted a little extra support for it.
This is one of the very simple flat panels. I have to make one more of these.
That`s it for this weekend, lots more to come.
If you all think I`m doing a fair to good job on the rebuild, please rate this thread.
