Reminds me of...me No, I'm sure of it. I hate him
Thanks dudes!
More progress this weekend.
Got all the cabinets finished and the floor in.
Went with a product called Core-Tec, it looks great and it's 100% vinyl so no particle board backer meaning no(ok minimal) expansion and contraction.
The bed area got a wrap around headboard/footboard as well. The TV is mounted to a linear actuator behind the footboard and raises and lowers with a switch which turned out really fucking cool.
I'll post up a video at some point.

Dude this thing is the nuts. Me and the wife lived in an old VW camper van for a few summers in Ibiza, thought it would be a good idea to sort out the body work and give it a re-spray while we were living in it.
"Coupla sheets of sandpaper and two weeks and I'll have it looking good as new" I said.
"Two weeks?" she said.
"Two weeks. Max." I said.
"Ok, you got two weeks. Don't fuck this up." she said. Firmly.
Well, I fucked it all up, took 7 weeks. In 100 degree heat. While living in it. In hindsight it was a terrible idea, but man that thing looked sweet when I finished. The things we do for camper vans man, worth every bit of blood, every tear and every ear splitting chew-out from the missus.

It the bathroom a wet closet? Where you can shower while sitting on the toilet?

Kathleen was not keen on the showering shitter approach (i though it would be convenient, just take a dump, turn around for a second and step out...like a built in bidet! )
So we went with a dry bath, but the whole floor will be tile, so i decided to waterproof the whole floor just to be safe.
The seat over there will be walnut flowing down from the countertop and the toilet is on the left side of the picture of the floor.
The shower pan's going to be CNC machined from a big ass chunk of butcher block walnut.
There's a little more space there than it looks like in the pictures.

Mmmmm... bidets are dreamy.

Not going to speak for what he did specifically, but there are urethane grouts to handle the job.Tim said:
