Title: Finally - Progress
Post by: DebDav on March 08, 2012, 09:20:50 AM
Slides, and roof raise completed - finally, I, - you - do not want to bring up time table.

Bus in drive way.

Insulation started.  Slide toppers being installed.  Tanks going in.  AGMs and SW 4024 onsite, Aquahot here.

Big ????

Interior walls.  I am planning on using 3/4" birch plywood for the two basic walls.  The walls will be covered with finish millwork - laminate trim, paper, paint, etc.  ----Why spend bigger $$$ for birch paneling if it will not be seen?
