Xm971 adventure camper

[ROCKWELL-C60]

I got the upper cabinets mounted. As for the lowers I will paint to match the uppers and I'm also using some of the ceiling duck aluminum to trim everything out. I'm going to use butcher block for the bench surface.

I paneled bedroom up front and will paint it seafoam green. I'm trying to maintain a military theme thru out. also hung a few panel's in the bathroom. All corners will be trimmed out in 1x1x1/16 aluminum angle.

What was under the plywood flooring under the tile? Is that what the 4x4 beams on 12" centers and spray foam is?

 

[ROCKWELL-C60]

Yes and 3/16 aluminum sheet under that

Got the bedroom painted, bed frame together and closet mounted this week.

So u worked on getting the cabinets in the kitchen done. I used butcher block for the countertops, the side against the wall lifts up to gain access to the plumbing, storage and trash can.

 

[ROCKWELL-C60]

I decided to leave sunken ceiling in cargo area and recessing some areas for overhead rod holders and anything else I can think of hanging up there.

 

[ROCKWELL-C60]

Painted the entire trailer inside.

Has anyone tried and apu (heater,ac,generator) from a semi to power a camper. There diesel powered and give roughly 12000 btu heat ac and 3000 watts 110AC and 50amps DC.

I know it works very well on an 70" Petercar standup sleeper, but you quadruple the space and it might not do so good, but I dont know. But I do know that it worked well on a big sleeper.

Well right now I heat my trailer with a 12000 btu big buddy heater. I never had it wide open even at 5 degrees outside. I thought might work good for most circumstances

They are quite expensive.

The btu's required to heat or cool a space is dependent on many factors.

A lot of factory truck sleepers are poorly insulated and the cab windows are large and I insulated.

If you can find one that is not to costly I would try it

Well there are pricey but getting a generator,heater,ac and battery charger in one seems like a good deal. The one thing I don't like is putting all my eggs in one basket.

Sorry 4 delayed response, am using these cool 110 led lights from home depo. . I'll mount them on the walls and add some brighter led ceiling lights in the back.

It's got like 3" of spray foam from what I can tell.

Yeah it is about 3" thick but it is panels not sprayed in, with aluminium square tube in the upper layer a wood in between the panels on the lower layer.

Good to know, the floors are sprayed though.

Think I am going to 395, 365 should fit no problem
