Last time out I had just completed the basic timber structure of the front, next step was to finish the frame with window section ans offer up and begin to fit the front section. I needed to ensure I sealed as I went and this phase puts me on a steep learning curve, only one shot at this ....have I made any mistakes....well lets find out:
Window structure added
|
Internal wall boards, cut from plywood and wall papered to suit |
Bonded in place (polyurethane adhesive again) |
Seaking up the roof skin, mastic tape used for this joint |
Window seal going back in, used a 3M windscreen sealer for this job. Once in I fitted the window rail, again with mastic to seal. |
All windows and seals now fitted
Internal fittings, locks and stays going back in
Storage lid back on and looking good, no issues so far!
Awning rails, I was not looking forward to removeing and re sealing these, turned out not too bad, 1 day and job done, remove, clean, reseal and fit. Both sides done.
Finishiing jobs, internal window shelf and trim fitted.
Very happy with the results so far, finish is good and the old van is looking solid again.
Blinds are the next issue, but I have booked a 4 day spot in the peak district in 2 weeks time. Just to keep some pressure on!
