I guess I should have posted sooner - 9 days have passed and I have been very busy ....
Sat - pick up van ..... Sun - drool over van
Mon - started conversion by making a Ply window frame to take blinds - it took ages !
Tues - went shopping for a 10mm star bit for socket set so I can get the rubber floor up
Wed .... work work till V late (thats not van work ...)
Thurs .... Ditto
Friday & Saturday - made templates for 4 other window frames out of foam card ... this will make it sooooo much easier to cut them out of ply. (Scrounge foam card from supermarkets when they are taking down the Easter, Christmas, special offers etc etc they use it for the big signs hanging from the ceilings - phone the manager first to arrange )
Sunday - went out to play with Liz 'n Jack
Mon - did the floor ... used laminate floor fibreboard underlay as it claims to have both heat and sound insulative properties. Also its thin and spreads the load for the ply floor, and I want to be able to fit insulation, ply and carpet to fit with the step and boot trim without needing to remove/replace.
Rubber mat used as template so cutting ply & insulation was really quite straight forward.
Total hours on the job so far - 15 hours .... mostly on the first window frame !
