     Rear inside cabinet is starting to take shape and should be permanently in place within the next week or so, along with the panel for the light switches, and the  12 / 120 vlt outlets. Carpet is also in place on the ceiling, odd concept to place carpet on the ceiling but it helps to hide the imperfections, 1/4 molding will be put in place from the ceiling to wall transition. it was a major PIA to glue the carpet to the ceiling.
   Next thing I want to accomplish is is to skin the inside of the hatch, and start  insulating the roof.

Electrical has been terminated on  a 12 volt fuse block, everything will be 12 volt except two 110 volt outlets with one in the galley and one in the cabin. Galley top has been put in place so now I can put in the carpet on the ceiling and install my inside cabinets, it has been a productive week.
