Walls Walls Walls

The kitchen walls are the next job on my list, as we have worked from the back of the bus to the front. building as we go, or making it up as we go, as we have never done anything like this before. By the time we have finish the motorhome We might know how to build one.

So now that the floor in the kitchen is down the wall are next. This means more sparky stuff for power points and light switches too. there is too much to think about some times, but it’s better to get it right now. Like gluing the insulation into place one of the job I don’t like.

Mid timber packer in place, screwed and glued.

On the driver’s side I also had to cut out holes for the fridge vents, that I’ve already talked about.

Fridge vents cutouts were in the right place.

Now thats finished, time for the next sheet to go up.

That’s as fare as I can go on this side for now.

Some plumbing & sparky fun

There are so many things to do when it comes to power and water, the main thing is to get them in the right place. The dishwasher and kitchen sink will beside each other on this side. The wall oven is going above the dishwasher, so will have to have 240v for both. Then I’ll be running 12v cable for the lighting for both sides of the kitchen, there will be lots of lighting options from low lights top ceiling lights.

Plumbing for the dishwasher & kitchen sink as well as power for wall oven & dishwasher.

240v for the power point and 12v for the light switch.

Every cable is tagged so I know were it go’s.

Lot’s of lighting options here, should look great when it’s finished.

240v and 12v cables in place for the fridge and range hood as well as a power point.

Let’s make more box’s

Out of the bedroom and now into the bathroom. Starting on the vanity and laundry side, it was time to make some more cupboards up. There will be a 900mm three draw as well as a 300mm cupboard and beside that we will be putting in a front load washing machine under the bench top.

Vanity in place just needs something to sit on.

Time for the plumber’s hat

Now I can fit the sink to set up for the drain pipe as well we need to put in the hot and cold water pipe’s, as the wall lean in at the top I’ve offset the cupboards off the wall. This will give me some space to run the pip work and drop it through the floor.

Drain hole for the sink and washing machine.

Water all plumed up for washing machine.

Most for the plumbing has been done, but now I’ve got to put in the back wall behind the washing machine area before I can run the drain pipe all the way.

Drain and tapes finished for the washing machine.

I’ve built a wall so I can finish off the washing machine area and on the other side will be the start of the kitchen, but thats an other day.

Well that was fun

The next job will be to fit the draws under the sink, and as you can see the sink will be in the way for some of them. Looks like it will be modification time again.
