Guest taken by the wind... Posted June 13, 2007 Sleeping area will be 44" x 78". The rest will be my cooking area which will be about 18" x 44" ~ That's actually a pretty big sleeping area Dave. Its wider and longer than a twin-sized bed, and way more space than an average person has sharing a queen-sized bed. You should be pretty comfy in there. :cool: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gandar 0 Posted June 15, 2007 I think you should start a show on Discovery and call it "Pimp My Mobile Command Post". Modified to add: And instead of grease monkeys out there working on the stuff it should just be you and a handful of actual monkeys covered in grease.

Dark Squirrel 0 Posted June 18, 2007 Just like survivorman I leave those little mistakes in. I could have been proffessional and edited all the silly stuff out. But then it would only be about 10 seconds long and boring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Swede 4 Posted June 20, 2007 They make a pretty good plastic 12 volt fan I found in the automotive section at Walley World. I had one in my cabin pre electricity and it worked pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Squirrel 0 Posted June 20, 2007 I'll start keeping a running total for everyone just as soon as I get a chance. This will also give me a idea of what I'm spending. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Squirrel 0 Posted June 25, 2007 Well I've had a major set back on the MCP. I was tring to install oak paneling on the insdie and discovered a major design flaw. I am going to have to disassemble the whole thing to put my panels on. I came very close to just putting a match to the whole thing. I'm going to try to take a week off in July to do nothing but work on the camper. It will probably take me a couple days of steady work to repair the flaw. Maybe less if I was capable of asking my friends for help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gandar 0 Posted June 25, 2007 Ugh Dave, I'm sorry brother. That really sucks. It was looking so good (to my eyes) too. What was the flaw? If you don't mind me askin'. Gandar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now, if you had been building these every day for years and years and screwed up, that's a different story! :kiss: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Squirrel 0 Posted June 25, 2007 Yes, this is the very first one I've built. I know I shouldn't be hard on myself but someone has to be. :rofl: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swede 4 Posted June 25, 2007 Let me guess you forgot the inside paneling nailers in the corners. If this is it just toe nail in some. No big deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
