From its original state with 57 seats...and some gorgeous passengers
and just an hour of work removing the seats...
it was ready to begin adding our home...
looking back towards the queen bed and the interior of the drying/linen closet
Eliza the chief foreman...
Being very creative, using storage shelves as bunk beds,
we can adjust the height from the shortest to the tallest...
using refrigeration panels for the toilet/bathroom walls, helps with insulation,
while keeping weight to a minimum
Almost done on the walls and swinging the doors (first ever doors Phil has swung!)
A view of the bunks with a couch at the front
making good use of the original overhead storage,
converting them to cupboards throughout the bus
Along this side is where we have to put doors in to house the gas, water and electricity.
Working on kitchen construction...thanks to Bunnings Kaboodle kits
The shell of the kitchen cupboards.
Thermal and light block-out material for the curtains... (Spotlight)
pinning the seams and hems of the curtains, to be put on plastic coated elastic wire
A few hours of sewing...it'll be worth it in the end...
Finally all curtains finished and ready to hang
Just checking they all fit and hang right...
