Started to look into some water damage in the kitchen of our 83 Pace Arrow. The more I looked, the more I found. I have some pics of the damage so far. Anyone interested in following a rebuild thread?

Good evening everyone. Nope, not dead. Sorry for being M.I.A. for a while. It's good to be back. Hope your year is starting off well. I won't bore you with a bunch of B.S. stories. (Baby Sitting). Ah, I'll tell ya, grandkids are great. You can love 'em and send 'em home! Lol.Anyhow, couple of pics coming up.

Well, I must say, what a shock to see the new format. Looks like there are others not very happy either. Look like we just landed on Mars!I wanted to check in, as we are currently in the Poconos in Eastern Pa for this week. I hope to get back to work on the moho next week one day.Then again, I guess it depends on whether anyone can find this thread anymore. I cast one vote for going back to the old format, if this is the only other option.

Here you can see the 2 pieces on the left with the uprights holding the 2 x 3's. This is just a temporary solution as I work on things in the middle of the "living room".

I'm still here, after bumbling around a good while. Not fond of the new format; not near as clean as the previous version. But I will soldier on... Still looking forward to your remodel efforts, fulltimin.

Well, due to technical difficulties, I can't post any pics tonight. I'll try to get things corrected for tomorrow night. Have a great day!

No Sears catalog for our posteriors..... Lol. Only certain TP for the Mrs.

I like water.

And there we have some additional storage. Although it looks like a 10 minute job, it wasn't. Lol.

Get out the Kreg Jig and drill a few holes. Mark the holes where the screw will go, and drill some pilot holes, then drive in the screws after applying some glue.

Then transfer it to the wood that is actually going on the top area.

Getting ready to cut the curve for the top of the cabinet. It does take a lot of extra time to cut curves, rather than having a square area to work with.

I also added a screw from the side, through the wall to help support the bottom rail. The circle is the screw head, which goes into the rail - shown by the arrow. Overall, it's very sturdy.

Then it was time to add a bottom. You know, so things don't fall out the bottom.

This is the shot from underneath at the moment. I haven't decided if I am going to add a cover on the bottom or not.
