Divided, We Conquor.





We started putting the walls up in the front, and worked toward the rear. The material we used is 1/8" bead board paneling, and came pre-finished.
I made a template out of foam core board to make it easier to lay out.

I used a jigsaw to make the cuts.


My friend said that it looks like bread, and she's right.


The lower part of the bedroom wall is going to be a different bead board, which will wrap around the room below the windows.

 This is the bead board we will install below the windows throughout the bus.


Once the walls were paneled, we caulked all of the seams along the ceiling and wall.


The caulk sealed things up pretty well, and hid some pretty ugly cuts.


The doorways look great with the top arch filled in and smoothed over with the caulk.


The caulk also helps keep some of the noise out of the bunk area.


Our friend Joel really hooked us up. He included an under-mount sink.


The booth table is perfect, too. It will be made to drop down for an extra bed when needed.


We found the perfect door for the bedroom at a Habitat Re-Store. It's 24" wide, same as the doorway, and will be cut down to fit for height. The curved upper panel will look nice with the curved ceiling.
