As usual after a week away; its back to work and memories of a great holiday are quickly forgotten. I'll be taking some more detailed shots of the interior later this week but in the mean-time here's a few shots (taken by Campershak, thanks) to whet your appetite. (Shots are shown without seat/bed foam).
The laminate colour is quite a warm orange, something I was keen to achieve to 'contrast' the light blue exterior.
Rear storage is massive! Great for things like wheel-chocks, barbecues and all the other camping gear that you only need when arriving on-site.
Extra table section for dining and entertaining.
Rear of cupboards finished to same high standard as the rest of the interior.
The Smev double unit had to be symmetrical with the window and lighting above.
You can never have enough storage. The flooring was chosen by Mrs. Stone174 and at first I wasn't keen, but after a week it has really grown on me.
Worktop was finished in 'dark concrete' laminate to match walls and compliment the woodwork.
Will go into more audio details later...
I'll be blogging all the different aspects of the interior over the next few weeks; electricals, plumbing, cupboards etc.
As you can imagine, we're extremely pleased with Campershak's work.
Stupid question: Where do you sleep?
ReplyDeleteHi Tash!
ReplyDeleteYou pull the two grey handles at the front of the seat up and forwards, the back of the seat then drops down in the gap to form a bed. The pictures in this earlier post might explain it better: http://stone174.blogspot.com/2009/12/bed-covering.html
Your van looks great, well thought out. I like all the storage space in the back. Had a couple of questions about the table, what holds the non-rail end up and how high?
ReplyDeleteHi Greg, thanks for the comments.
ReplyDeleteBoth the table rail and the table leg are from Rainbow Conversions:

The leg is the version without the 'knee' fold: 53440 Unfortunately they don't show this in the picture!
The leg folds flat under the table and can be cut to length (to match the rail height which suits your van). When not in use, I store the table in the driver's side sliding door area behind the cupboards.
Thanks again for checking out the blog,
