First topic message reminder :

So it's warm enough, at last to get out and start work on my van, managed to get two windows installed, but now need a trip to the tip to get rid of some of the woodwork that came with the van

I'd never have thought of closing off the cab like that, are you fitting a sliding door to make the hab warmer at night?

Morning Kev, and yes I will be making and fitting a sliding door to go on the cab side, so that it slides behind the passenger seat. On B and C class motor-homes the cab is the biggest problem for losing heat. The cab heaters were never designed to heat the whole van up, and even without the door, my cab is considerably warmer Very Happy

I was puzzling how you could make it neat, and cheap, I wonder if a couple of full extension drawer slides might just do it, a few lengths of the brush type draught excluder to keep it warm, magnets to keep it closed/open.

Have now got my nuclear power station fitted, flue for the trumatic heater, ceiling fitted, and started lining out. Feel like I'm getting somewhere now!

You should have give us all a job to do, we could have finished it over the weekend, too late now, for health and safety reasons you need to give a weeks notice Razz

I have done a little more to the van since Marbury, which was a really good rally, and sorted some of the rush work that I did to get on the road.

A new font for the over-cab storage.

New 12v distribution as the old Zig was past its sell by date!

New battery box and electric box.

Oh, and on the first pic, you can just see part of the new window surround, done on all three windows.

Hi, Totally forgot about this forum.

So how's the van doing, do you get to use it much?
