NOV 6: Sammy cleans out the wood from under the house and some left over mangrove items.
We score a 13ft green & white stripe house awning (that can be modified for Keith) from the Redcliffe Refuse Centre for $30.
Danny and Michael work on the guitar cupboard and cut the silky oak benchtop to size.
Sammy gets handy with a razor blade and scapes the paint off the side windows.
NOV 7: Keith goes back to the car electrics place for the 3rd time! Danny and James Palmer discuss and design image for Keith's sign on the front. And they pick up the plywood for the interior from Peninsula Plywoods in Clontarf. Keith then goes to D'Bay for his first bath at Car Lovers. NOV 8: Danny paints the newly welded corners (thanks Poustie) of the roof cage black. Sammy & Danny have a clean up out the front and find a dog bed at the tip. Just needs some new shade cloth.
NOV 12: Danny & Michael prep the walls, put in the heavy ply for behind the seating and cut out the back window wall. Sammy cleans the 3-way fridge with gumption and vanilla spray.
Danny and Michael fit Keith's first wall in Keith!
NOV 14: Sammy finishes cleaning the fridge (it looks and smells heaps better - just needs a gentle sanding of some bottom rust). Sammy and Danny pull out Keith's annex from down the side and give it a wash. We are going to sell it because we have an awning and it a bit too heavy and bulky to carry it on the trip.
NOV 15: Danny puts a combination of insulation in the roof - alfoil, glass wool batts and gladwrap all staple in neatly. Ready for the ply this weekend.
With the help of our good neighbour Michael, we are hoping to have Keith almost completed by Christmas!
