Usually when people say this, they mean only tabbing in (with fiberglass) some wood supports that the cabinets can be screwed into, rather than having to be attached through the outer shell. Basically the equivalent of how the dinette benches and front bunk are attached.

ahh that makes sense haha, still might be more work than I am into doing

[beater_bug]

Some progress has been made this week
Pieced together the floor chunks and used as a template


Cutting out the main shape

So glad I bought a jigsaw...

Test fit

[beater_bug]

Now to tackle the old tabbing


Cleaned up with a flapper wheel on the angle grinder


Floor laid in, I might be slightly off on my measurements ...

But the fit isnt too bad overall

Hey, how is your project coming along?

[beater_bug]

Still waiting on the weather so I can finish off the floor, then the shell can come off the frame. I ordered a new Atwood everest furnace so will have some heat for the chillier nights.

Sounds good. It will be great to see you bring it all to life.
