    You can usually swap the hinge sides on those fridges. Would be much more usable if the doors opened the other way. 👍🏻

      I came to make the same comment. Also a little quarter round tacked to the bottom of the cabinets will hide those paint bleeds on the new floor.

      Yep, it would be much better opening the other way.

      @@johnpoteat9774 You are right but I always liked the 11/16" or 3/4" cove molding better. Looks different and more finished to me. Don't know why more people don't use it.

    Quick painters tip....If you're going to use tape as a means for a finished edge, use green frog tape instead of that cheap blue tape. Frog tape doesn't bleed on the edge. 👍

      @user-ny9po2lm1x 15 дней назад +2

      Heck yeah! Getting a donor is better than buying all the pieces separately. I converted a 6V beetle to 12V using a trashed donor beetle I got for $150. I sold parts off it and sold what was left to the junkyard. I actually made money off that deal

    950 for that broken camper was the best 950 ever spent I think for all the great stuff it is giving you for this thing
    I would think once done you can strip off the camper top from the chassis and make yourself a trailer from the chassis and have a double win
