Is that electrical outlet cables on the sipleasede.

BTW she is becoming a real ugly beauty :D

No Dave that would be the butane hoses going to the burners inside lighting these is a two man operation, or else we could have some roof trouble ... :rotf
They would only have the problem ONCE though :D

ahh nothing wrong with added ventilation & light... :hmmm :drinks

Nice lil update Gerry! (y) Just how big are dem batteries? Me thinkin' ya can stuff 'em above the stove & have part of the roof on a hinge... or, box in the area above the fuel tank... :hmmm

I'm thinking a tool box under the back steps ...the battery is about like the size of two quarters but the holder is the trouble is the holder is bigger ... Thinking on redesign ... Thanks Me Calfornia dude friend .... :good: .

Looking good Gerry. I'm thinking that the wet spot on the floor was supposed to be spilled oil wasn't it? I think it needs to be moved then to underneath the burners. I do like the looks of everything else so far. I'll be looking forward to seeing how you resolve the battery issue.

Thanks Mark, ... It is just a dirty floor ... I put it there for MP ... nothing low class about this joint ... thanks there is some shiny oil around the burners but since there isn't any pluming do you think I should have a pipe from bottom of the sink to a dump tank if so I think I could hide a battery in something like that I found my magnetic Reed switch today ... what luck ... that way I can turn lamps on or off ... these switches are used a lot in model railroading .... :good:

working on back siding and door ... Two schools of thought here ... My rivet counter buddy say "you can't fit though a 30" door, I said " I'll just make it a 36" door I go through one of those daily ... He really needs to quit insinuating that I'm fat !!! Getting tired of it ... I spend $30 a month on my medical condidtion ... Not funny ... :rotf
So He wants a baby killer door in the center with a ledge on it bottom shut top open ... Comments & Criticism's welcome ... :woohoo:
