Slowly, but surely.. this project is moving forward...
1.) Looking back... Bedroom and toilet area is painted.. floor is cleaned and sub-floor is being installed (raising that area up a little to match the height of the laminate.. going to put a piece of vinyl down in this area.)
2.) Dining area wall is painted... repairing the water damage from the skylight.. No way to put clamps to hold the new piece in place while the adhesive cured, so I screwed strips of wood to the wall to hold this pice in place.
3.) A close up of the bath/restroom floor before I started installing sub-floor.....
A few notes on this area..
you'll notice the large holes right next to the bedroom on each side of the coach.. this is where wires and water pipes run. The water holding tank is directly below these holes. These holes are 4"x6".. way bigger than needed.. I've covered up all but a slit the size I need to run the wires and pipes back through.. I've also cut up some foam insulation to wedge in there to fill the gaps under the sub-floor.. Can you imagine the cold/hot air coming in and escaping through these huge holes??? Not anymore..
I've also covered up and filled in four other holes that were used to run wires in this area.. No wonder it was so hard to keep this coach warm/cool.
A couple of questions..
1.) I'm using 1/4" Luan Plywood for the new sub-floor.. What's the best way to attach? Screws? Adhesive? Brads? combination? I figure once everything is put back in place on top of it, it's not going anywhere regardless of how I attach it..
2.) I need to remove the toilet flange... I'm guessing it just screws into the black water holding tank.. correct??
I wish I could take a week or two off from work and just work on this old girl. Especially now that the weather is getting cooler.. it's been a HOT summer here.. hard to work in there when it's 100+ degrees...
