thank you joe ! i am trying too as much as i afford ... maybe there are some ideas that some else wants to use or just to show what can be done regarding comfort , design and looking in such a small boat like this !

i forgot to post a few pictures of the aluminum frame for the doors opening. they are made from "L" straight profile and because i don't have a bending machine i have cut them , curved and welded on each side. after that grinding , sandpaper and some synthetic grinding cloth ( don't know the term for it ) which is giving "brushed" appearance . you can see them in the previous post with the hinges .

here they are ...

thank you karl for your message !

i will post some progress ... the bath separation wall .

the frame is all made from alu profiles , the center middle section is a H profile bended on a roller machine . all contour is U profile or L for holding the wall in position. the wall is made from 6mm polycarbonate sheet , very light and with all fittings can take the weigh of the person if pushing against it. there is plenty of room inside so a 180cm/90kg man can take a shower and also can bend down . i am pretty happy with the result :)

I was looking for more information on ar99kid's work ... so I started looking for it and I discovered this:

https://www.facebook.com/forumclub4x4/p ... =3&theater

and this...

https://adevarul.ro/locale/arad/a-fost- ... index.html

for this reason the messages stop here.


I've never known you ... but your genius that ranges in various fields will remain as long as the internet will live with sites of this type.


I'm sorry I lost a sure friend before I even met him.

REST IN PEACE
