You sure got a lot done in a short amount of time! Looking Great!

Thanks Shell. I have been slightly mono-focused on finishing the camper to a certain level before I start work.

Worked on the lower bed today. Added some thin carpet to the plywood. This will make it a little easier to manipulate into different configurations.

Added a strip of wood on the floor in a strategic place.

We were able to get 5 adults and a dog hanging out in the FWC on New Years Eve with relative ease with this configuration with a Paco Pad across the front.

Still need to add a strap to hold these in up when needed. I also have a few different sized coolers that will fit the space in the front.

Nice job maximizing the utility of the space! Super job bringing this camper back to life.

Removed knob, installed deadbolt and paddle lock.

Backdoor semi finished.

Showing Door Stop
Beer Bear
Two porch lights, (want to put a orange lens in one of them. Or hook one up to my backup lights.)

I like the paddle lock a lot more than the old school knob I had on it before. The Deadbolt is more of a bonus, from my afterthought.

A little more progress. Starting to do a lot of the finish work on the inside.

This pic is showing the “galley” portion of the FWC. With my fold down prep table. Keeping the “open concept” FWC build I am trying to achieve.

Battery access panel. There is a little square bolt just below the furnace that will allow the whole panel to come off to change out the batteries when the time comes.

Sink and sink cover. The cover still has to be stained and treated.

Added a duct to the furnace. Which really had me hating the location of the thermostat. I will try and change the location down the road if it really bothers me.

Temporary wiring harness, until I replace the headliner.

I have already installed a quick disconnect for the stove I will eventually purchase one of these 2 burner propane stoves. These Partner stoves are awesome, and I have been wanting one for my Rafting setup, so this gives me another reason to purchase one, (when they go on sale).

Anyone else use their FWC to heat the garage?
