Ross - what a makeover! Lots of ideas for my reno of a 1300 Trillium recently acquired.

I am curious what you are going to place over the foil insulation or will it just be painted?

Cheers,

Murray

I am installing Leatherette, but after testing Leatherette glued to foil, I could see the shape of air cells on Leatherette, so to fix that I am glueing 1/8 white felt and than will glue Leatherette. That’s the plan. Waiting for warmer weather to do gluing.

I just came across this thread. Both of you (you and your sister) have done a fantastic job. I am never going to undertake something like this, but I like many of your ideas and I am always thinking of incremental improvements on my Scamp. Thumbs up!

Thanks Paul, It’s sites like this one (fiberglassrv) that push us to always try to do better. It’s a project now, but can’t wait for the day of completion, just to take it out and have some fun.

Ross, google marine headliner, and you will come up with a thin foam backed vinyl. I believe I saw it at west marine.

Thanks David, I did see that but had already purchased my Leatherette. Now that I have found the felt I am doomed in working double ( glue process ). Since I purchased everything real cheap it will probably cost me more because of the price of glue. And that’s not counting my time. Projects are a learning curve , trail and error, I just may be a little smarter after this project. Lol

Will be changing motor and mount for my tv , using a drill motor on a treaded rod takes to much time to rise and makes to much noise.


Changing for a window mount motor and frame , much faster and a lot quieter thus savings on battery reserve.

Testing the new television support mechanism.

If there's nothing on TV you can always watch it go up and down.

[Seaross]

Placed a micro switch on downward direction so that top of tv countertop will stop exactly flush with rest of counter.

The weather is warmer today so started glueing the felt to alu bubble foil , just hope the wrinkles in felt will not show through Leatherette. If they show I will need ideas to cut them out.

Placing felt to roof

You will not be able to continue tomorrow, the cold and the snow come back and they announce -17C for Sunday.
You're going to have some to complete, that's fine.
