John Haygarth's fridge and pantry upgrade (Re: What did you do to your coach today)

worked a bit on the pantry addition next to the new reefer, should be good to install next week as I am waiting for the new door front to be finished.(custom made size). Then I will take some photos.

finally got the pantry cupboard installed alongside the new res' fridge (to fill the space left from side by side) and really pleased with it. I even designed and put in a simple spring loaded pin that will stop the door/cabinet from opening on the road. In the pics you will see a cabinet handle on the right side above stove. This is pulled to open the pantry and when you shut the door it locates in a hole in a metal brkt that I made and bolted to back of door. The spring return system is hidden in the wall and actually works great. Got to clean it all up yet and put some polish on the door.

Forget Walmart.  You are now set up to just stop occasionally at Sams Club.

Plans for the summer: :P :P :P

1) Visit daughter in Montana.
2) Visit Glacier National Park
3) Visit Haygarth in BC
4) Allow Haygarth to demonstrate on our coach how to:
    a) Replace old flooring with tile and new carpet
    b) Remove analog TVs and put in digital TVs
    c) Replace muffler with resonator
    d) Various other improvements and modifications

 ^.^d What beautiful work. I'd like to give John the opportunity to personally demonstrate his skills. ;D

It's projects that turn out like this that inspire the rest of us to try our own. Great job. Fits right in. Beautiful work!

Wow, thanks for the comments. Today it took me 5hrs to clean all the mess up inside Mhome, sawdust was everywhere and Ruth said "you made the mess so it's  up to me" to clean up. Now with a brass handle on it finally looks ok.
So, what to do next,hmm!!!
