I like this idea so much and I like your material so we may be making a trip to Lowes in the near future. Even just a place to store our extra blankets (this is Canada-we have experienced snow in August.) would be so nice as they get in the way and we get tired of moving them from bow to stern and back again.
Thanks for the pictures. B

Adding a door in the side of the dinette bench for better access. Cabinet will be divided into two storage units. The one with the door will hold our set up tools, like the drill for the scissor jacks.

Had to modify it a couple of times by widening it as the curvature of the ceiling closed down the opening on the shelf. It allows us to get all the odds and ends off the table...books, cards, pencils, games, etc. |

I've made a few mods, so far. Nothing really new but here they are.
The first was to make a cutting board which fits over the stove and a paper towel holder. The second was to remove the boards under the sink and add some vertical slats to hold pans. There was a lot of wasted space in there. And finally, I extended the length of the drawers by 4 inches. My next project will be to change from 2 drawers to 3 drawers. Almost forgot. You can see the front of the slide out cabinet I made for under the bed. I even remembered to leave enough room for the heater. |

We are busy doing mods before we head south to Florida. My husband made this cabinet and screwed/glued it into place.

Our septic storage tube took a beating in its original location. We made a bracket and connected it to the side of the tongue. We also ordered another tube from FR so if we need the extra length, we have it. |

We bring a small flat screen TV with us as the one that came with the RPod is too small and in a poor location. We bought a coaxial cable connector from our RV dealer and drilled the hole toward the front of the Pod. We screwed it in and sealed around the edges. We then put an interior one on the dinette bench and connected them with a cable. (photos below) Now, when we want the TV there, we have a cable connection. The next job is to put another outlet in the dinette bench area. |

Here are a couple more mods I've made. The first is the wine rack on the right side of the fridge. The second was to remove the bench seat on the right and build one along the back to form an 'L'. My wife is going to make new cushions. It's amazingly comfortable. I never could read or use the computer the way it was. There just wasn't enough room to get comfortable.
Wine rack Bench seat I need to thank the guy on the 'other forum' who did something similar. My wife was against the mod till she saw the photos. |
