Update

Have gotten some stuff done. Filled in with insulation the areas where the windows use to be. 

This took me 10 Hrs., to do. Each window had to be cut and trimmed individually. It took three layers of insulation to fill the void. I used construction adhesive on each layer and propped a board on it just to keep it in place long enough to cure.    

I did not take a picture of it but the first layer of insulation was one piece, the second layer was two scrap pieces, taped together, and the third layer (what you see now) was one piece. I did not want to waste any insulation, so I used odd sized pieces and taped them together.

This was the last one.  What a long day.

This is a pic of the insulation done.

After doing the insulation, I started to fur out the inside with 2X2's.

I went through about 5 or 6 drill bits doing this part. I pre-drilled into the wood and metal, but the area just below the window has some type of metal that would brake drill bits and screws like you would not believe. What a pain in the butt.

This was not too difficult. Just measure and cut. I was not too concerned about perfection or fit as it will all be covered up with oak plywood at some point.  I will be placing a layer of insulation between the fur strips before covering with oak plywood.

Next I started building a platform over the fresh water tank in the back. On top of the platform will be my two single beds.

Now its starting to get a little difficult. I am in no way a carpenter, so I am having to figure out things as I go. I may over engineer things because of my lack of experience. Hopefully it will at least all stay together.

There came a time in the Texas heat that I was unable to figure out what to do next. I had to take a brake, go cool down and eat lunch. Man was it hot.

Trying to figure out how to build this platform is a pain. I have to be able to have access to the wire chases on one side, the heater hoses on the other, be able to access the water tank for repair or maintenance, as well as build a stable platform that will hold up the weight of two beds.

This is as far as I was able to get. My beds will be on the left and right sides. They should stop just before half way on the wheel wells, then that is where the closets will start. At the bottom of the picture where the 2X4 is going left to right is where the wall for the bed room will be.

Well that's it for now. It may be a little while before I post again, as I have to move my stuff out of my house and place it into storage. That will have to be done before the end of the month. Fun Fun Fun.

I had a guy come out and quote me a price on window tent. $538.00 was his quote. I was figuring he didn't want the job when he stated several times "This is going to be expensive". When the guy trying to sale you something tells you that, you know he doesn't really want to do it.

Guess I'll be doing the tinting myself too.

Until next time....
