Here are some mods I recently made.
First I made a wood box to fit over the stove to provide more counter space. I used Minwax Red Chestnut stain which matches pretty well and coated with Minwax Semi-gloss polyurethane water based.

Next I added a paper towel holder over the sink.

Next I took out the dinette table and made one that is 23" wide by 28" long. Added a slightly raised edge. Added two fold up hinges and a single extension leg which also folds. (Both from Amazon) Mounted to back wall and folds into place when needed. This gave us much needed floor space and ease to the seats. I used the same stain and polyurethane. Also added a carpet runner to the floor. Also a battery disconnect switch.

I am sorry, but I do not know "moving to the pod section" means. Did I post this in the wrong section?

Your stove cover can also become a nice serving tray if you flip it over! Great for carrying stuff outside to the grill. Dual purpose is always a good thing with limited space...

Yes, but not a big deal. Since the non-pod-mod section was introduced there are several new threads a week that are pod-related. So I move them over to the podmods section.
