mounting bed legs and starting with furniture
bed legs
The bed legs are now bolted to the bed frame and on the right side also bolted to the frame of the van.
- back left foot bed
- front left foot bed
- Bed frame bolted to the front right foot
- With this we could hose attachment screws loosely around the corner in every corner ...
first furniture
Ok, furniture looks different, but it is taking shape.
On the left side of the entire length of the bed we create a storage space. The furniture is really not that complicated, but the adjustments to the slants, and irregularities of the struts are enormously time-consuming, we are constantly running back from Van, and woodworking shop and forth to the tailors.
- Bracket for surface
- Brackets for wall
- Built-in floor and wall (left half of the cabinet)
Cladding and compare cordless drill
In the back on the left and right side I kept the casing of the walls, because I don't want to rebuild them later.
We sanded both plastic-parts and sprayed them with a cheap white primer for later use.
Now a little tool comparison. Or: Why it pays to buy expensive brand tools:
| Noname cordless screwdriver | Bosch cordless screwdriver |
price (CHF) | ca. 25.00 | ca. 120.- |
max. rpm | 550 | 4000 |
speed | on/off | infinitely adjustable |
Stop-delay when releasing the switch | 1.5s | instantly |
batteries included | 1 | 2 |
battery capacity | Charge the battery full, don't use it, use it after 6 days and you can make 5 revs, GREAT! | Somewhere in the past charged battery can be used to bolt both checkered plates (wood / metal), don't use it for a month, then use it again for 1h drilling and screwing! |
torque levels | 5 + drill | 25 + drill |
made in | not declared | Malaysia |
conclusion | cutting the wrong corners | I really should know it in the meantime |
