To this:
We purchased pine paneling to install. It was 5/16 wide, which was a little wider than the original paneling but much easier to install than full sheets of paneling. It took 8 packs of paneling.
The best purchase was a mini air compressor and nail gun:
My dear sister came to recuperate after surgery and as part of her rehabilitation she helped install the paneling. It went very smoothly and we did not make any errors - however we did have to make some 2nd and 3rd cuts!
So here are some additional looks:
We kept the original propane light over the dinette.
Installed a light on the kitchen side by the dinette, this is also from Menards and matches the bedroom lights.
Under the shelf over the dinette we have small lightsand an electric plug. These lights are from Ikea and just require a small hole to run the wire. Mike rewired the lights to run on one string rather than the way they were originally packaged and then set them up to work on the switch rather than a toggle on the cord.
So we will have a well lit camper! It is great to have a husband that understands electricity!
Next up - cushions and sealing/painting
