Worked on putting up more wall paneling the last couple days. Decided to put another outlet in the back so had to run wire for that today. I got a lot of respect for dudes that can come in to a project and just start measuring and cutting and nailing, getting huge amounts of stuff done in a day. I gotta sit there, staring at it, figuring out everything that could go wrong, trying to think if I'm forgetting to so thing A before thing B, etc. Plus I gotta google or youtube how to do something, maybe order a part or some hardware, even run to the hardware stuff to get some damn thing I need. By the time in get in a groove, half the day is gone.
In any event, the back wall is done but not nailed up yet. I have to put insulation back there first so that'll get done tomorrow. This thing has rounded corners in the rear that have been giving me fits trying to figure out how the best way to panel it is. I replaced some rotten wood under the curved windows with a big ol' 2x8 that I cut a curve in to fit. After they were in I used a hole saw, vibrating saw, a grinder and a drum sander to make the inside curve. I used an extra piece of cabinet lumber to make a small shelf under the window and cut the paneling that goes against the back wall under the shelf. I made a couple of vertical studs from 2x4 to support the rear shelf and window and give me something to nail the paneling to.
I pretty much finished paneling the drivers side. The fun part is cutting out the windows. I do have to finish the last bit of that wall where it gets to the corner. Hopefully I'll get that corner and finish most of the passenger side wall tomorrow. Also, I cut the hole in the countertop for the new sink and the cook top. The new sink is a lot deeper than the old crappy shallow sink that was in there, so I'll have to get a little creative with the P-trap so it clears the water heater.
