Title: Video update, building the master bedroom in mc9
Post by: mike802 on February 15, 2012, 04:02:01 PM
This is as far as I have gotten so far this winter, most of my time has been spent in the shop making the paneling.  Right now I am building cabinets for the bedroom, I would really like to get the bedroom finished by spring.

I'm jealous! I wish I were that far along with mine! I'm just now getting the ceiling insulation done!

Don't be, I thought this stage would go along faster than the earlier ones, but it does not.  As you can see, I haven't even started the ceiling insulation yet.  I decided to do it room by room, so to speak.

Mike,

Thanks for taking the time to post your videos. I like 'em, it's like This Old House, maybe This Old Bus! Looks real good. I miss VT, when I lived there I looked and looked for Norm's shop and never found it. I've heard it is hidden in VT somewhere.

Thanks brando4905:  It's a lot of fun making them, sometimes when I feel like I am not getting anywhere I go back and watch the first ones.  Can't help you with Norms shop, but I know some guys that have some beautiful ones.

Mike,

I really enjoy your videos, they are a great resource for someone like me who has no idea what he's doing.

Thanks and keep them coming!

Mike,

Looks good - Love all the wood.  Like a cabin driving through the woods.

Looking forward to more pics & video.  I'll try and get some video from our build out.  We are working on the bedroom area now as well.

Thanks, that's the look we are trying to achieve, the old cottage, or camp look.  My Grandfather had a camp on Lake Champlain were I spent a lot of summers growing up, I really miss that place, so I guess I am kind of recreating it in the bus.   I look forward to seeing your videos!
