Just finished a mini-project in my van conversion transformation. Over the last two weeks I created and installed a 'hidden' extension shelf under my bed. All cherry hardwood and some cherry ply.
Look here to see the details.

My website describes the conversion of my Dodge B-250 van into a small RV. I deal with a lot of woodworking, but hope to be quite specific on solar as well.

Nice job. There is nothing more rare in nature than a horizontal surface so that will come in handy, especially in a rig.
I think it will be worth while looking at our "C" for opportunities along the same line.
Please keep us posted on further developments.

Normk + pamvanw,
Thanks for the compliments, but it is more an investment in time than ability.

After finishing the pull-out shelf under the bed, I’ve been quite busy working on the rear doors. I already removed the fabric covered panels and decided to replace them with built-in cabinetry. There is only 3?-4? depth available, but every little bit of storage counts in a van.
As you can see, the cabinet itself is almost finished.
I’m working on the driver’s side rear door, but the other rear door needs one too. To finalize it, I need to create two new fabric covered panels. I haven’t yet decided on the updated fabrics, however they have to be ordered a.s.a.p.

Finished the installation of the cabinets for both rear doors of my van conversion. The fabric still has to wait a little.
Look here for details and more pics.

Nice work! I think the doors look good without fabric, the wood looks cozy.

Van Conversion | Built-in stove cabinet
Decisions now have to be made about a side door cabinet. Features like stove top, exterior folding shelf, interior & exterior access have to be incorporated.
Give me your ideas!
