Hi guys
Well after a good think about it all and before we cover the MDF we have now decided to reboard it in plywood as we got thinking about screwing stuff to the MDF like my two metal detector and stuff may not stay on or come loose so before we go any further we will use plywood

At least you have patterns to cut around

Yeah that's true

There will be a significant weight saving anorl.

Must admit I didn’t like the idea of the bed being MDF. Huge risk of it sinking.

Yeah to be fair it was the price of the plyboards against the price of the MDF boards that swade us to MDF as its was half the price of the plyboards so ok i've wasted roughly £150 for the MDF boards but son has found a load of plyboard at work that they want rid of so hopefully we will be using that

That’s why my bed is 1/4” alli held between roof & tub with 2 edge supports

Son is dropping off the ply boards today so hopefully over the weekend we will get it sll swapped over

cornish rattler · Apr 17, 2022

Not got the plyboards yet as the works pickup was out on another job so will try and get them on Tuesday now

cornish rattler · Apr 22, 2022

Finally got the plyboards now so hopefully tomorrow we can start stripping the new old MDF out and fit the plyboard in

Well thats the floor in inc re-positioning the inverter, just on a footy break ( City v Watford game ) then back doing the headboard

cornish rattler · Apr 23, 2022

Just finished for the night only need to wire up the second plug socket and switch panel then we can start covering it all inc the inside of the roof

Oops

cornish rattler · Apr 25, 2022

So when son arrives home from work and if the rain stays off we can get the wiring finished and the panel back in that has the dash panel in ready for covering once the covering arrives

cornish rattler · Apr 25, 2022

Panel is still out but wiring done started to go dark and tea was ready so called it a day, carpet covering should be here tomorrow so son is doing that after work and whilst i'm at work so hopefully ir should be all done when i get home
