Wow 3 1/2 years! That's a project! I'm sure you got the award for longest thread from the Mods...
That partition is typical construction, done to keep the weight down. Using wood glue and/or PL construction adhesive adds considerable strength with no weight penalty. FYI on window installation...ChemLink is a good choice for sealant but not so good if you ever need to replace that window. It's also easier if you have the interior paneling installed, the inside trim ring is designed to be the clamping pressure on the window so you don't need actual clamps.
Looks like the project is coming along nicely though!
There are longer threads on here, not sure about rebuilding and remodeling though. It's a project that got out of hand a long time ago, so I might as well just finish it. Lol.
Agreed on the partition from another rv. Unfortunately, when they are put together at the factory, strength isn't always at the top of their list.
As far as the windows go, I just hope I am not the next guy to have to remove them. Although, taking a sharp knife and cutting through from the inside, and under the outside would probably make it a lot easier.
The way that stuff sticks, I doubt that will leak for a long time to come.
The project is coming along, much slower than I like, but sometimes life just gets in the way of what I am doing! :) Lol.
Thanks for the post.
