Built the final cupboard for the offside.
We originally wanted a cover for the toilet with a seat on top. A smaller cupboard above, hiding the electrics and a space above for toiletries etc.
Ah novice mistakes!
Because of the rake of the hatch rear door sloping several inches to the top meant the cupboard above the loo box, meant the "seat" was a no go, no headroom either! Was a just going to be a seat so no big deal.
Cutting the end panel was a long careful process to get it right. But I got there in the end!
So decided on another Tambour door, expensive but very light wieght.
I had to cut about 40mm off one side to fit my unit. So used the same blade style taped the area to cut etc. But nearly had a costly mistake! Once cut and I was happy i stripped the masking tape away to find several chipped of pieces on the underside! Weather is cold so I'm guessing plastic just brittle.
Fortunately the guide rail hides the chips! Slight problem when opening as it sticks a little but I'll see over time. Just don't fancy shelling out another £70!
So all that is left to do is fit a shelf ( when the rain stops!) Box in the battery and propex heater, and finish the offside rear seat box!
