Build Updates

Back Home Next

Since the initial build a few things have been altered or completed better so here are a few examples

The main area has had the ceiling covered and the drawers and top cupboards finished. there is also an additional cupboard added under the fridge with a matching curved door. this is used to hold things like shoes and other odds and ends.

The drawers were altered so instead of having one smaller one and two large ones, there are now five in total.

The top drawer is for cutlery so is not very deep as it sits in front of and slightly under the hob unit.

The next drawer down is just the right size for mugs and glasses as well as being large enough to hold the major crockery.

The following three are for general storage and the bottom one has a retainer for standing drink and wine bottles upright in the front of it.

The over-cab cupboards are just about finished too. there still remains the annoying bit where the sliding door mechanism intrudes inside. Needless to say there is a grand plan for it.

 

The roof now sports extra solar panels so is quite full of hardware. the gallery rail usually has additional rails on it to hold windsurf boards but, when there is no need to carry them, the rails are removed to reduce drag and ensure that the solar panel is not in the shadow.

The lighting inside is a mixture of LED and Cold Cathode tubes  all used to reduce power consumption. Here, seen at night, the overall effect is quite good.
