Sink and Stove Remodeling
Spring of this
year (2006), I startedripping apart the
kitchen counter area.Gas line for
stove is on top, gas line forMr. Heater is on
bottom back of cabinet. Thethird gas line
you see goes to the LP Lamp over Sink.
I
then trimmed back the end towards the
bedso
I could shorten it up to make room for a full size
mattressin the Gaucho
area. You can see where the wood from the
originalcabinet is, its
still painted the speckled blue. The
clearnon-painted wood
is new wood added for the new cabinet.
I
then added the sides and backs to the
cabinet.The gas line for
stove pokes through on top,the gas line for
lamp runs up into the wall. Youcan see it at the
upper left side of the cabinet.
Now
the top and front have been added.Note, I kept the
original Scotty towel rack!I also added a
water pump, so now there aretwo faucets, one
direct connect to waterline, the other
one connects to tank via pump.
This
is the Mr. Heater location. Its hung
usingtwo screws on the
side of the cabinet.
Finished!! Now
the fire extinguisher is located over the stove, I
guess it should be moved. The Formica was purchased
at
Lowes and the metal
edge was purchased at White Wire
Works in Rochester NY.
The sink and stove were purchases at Bontrangers
in
White Pigeon MI. The faucets were purchases on
ebay. The Mr.Heater
was purchased at Dicks.
Here
is where the microwave and 3-way refrigerator
go.Tom Duffy had a
great idea of putting an AC unit up here also. I
was thinking of
putting it under the bed like the 13' Scotties, but since
the15' Scotties have
the room, it made perfect sense to me to put it
here. So
hopefully there will be room to add all three here.
Here
is the cabinet ripped apart.Hole for
refrigerator venting hasbeen cut out.
I ripped
back all the wood to the mainsupports.
Then
added the new plywood.I left a hole so
the Microwavecould vent.
Also added AC outlet boxDC outlet, TV
cable and phone plug (withcell phone not
sure there is any reason for thisbut I might need
it for the computer).
Note
orange wiring for AC outlets,black wiring for
DC outlets,and copper tubing
for Fridge.The vary large
black wire is the12 gauge 20Amp AC
power mains.
Lynn
came up with this idea, to justreplace the
rounded top cubbies. But asyou all know, you
really can't store anythingup here or it
falls out. So I'm adding doorsto the front of
the holes.
Finished!!
Thanks go toTom Duffy for his
hinges!
Microwave is
bolted on from the bottom.
Refrigerator is surplus from one of
NancyKroes'
surplus RV stores. Works like newbut it was
missing the front panel, I improvised using
white-board material.
