Thank looks fantastic! How did you match the stain so well?
All of the drawer faces are pieces from the camper so it was really easy to match the stain... LOL.
The drawer face under the bench is the piece that I cut out from that panel. I took the entire end off and very carefully ran it through the table saw.. So I actually ended up with four straight edge's and a 1/8" gap all the way around:):). The drawer face is flush with the panel when closed which I'm not exactly sure of yet, but we'll try it that way for a while.
The drawer faces under the bed are actually shelves from the pantry that I had left over from a previous mod of "slide out pantry". I cut two shelves to the size I needed.
All of the currently raw edges are going to get edging applied that I ordered from keystone dealer for $0.40/foot or something like that.
Great idea! I never thought of using the shelves and other hidden panels so it will match perfectly. I thought of making a countertop extension out of the laundry chute cover so it matches but havn't thought it out yet in my head.
I see you also got matching handles, were those from Keystone as well or were you able to find them at a home center?
BUSTED again.... Boy, you guys are good.... No secrets around here LOL. Yeah, I figured if I ever had to put shelves back in, even if they didn't match perfect, who cares? Shelves are usually covered with stuff anyway.
I did buy handles from HomeDepot that are same color and shape but don't have the "two" bars on them just one solid piece. I put those in the bathroom and put the exact matching ones from the bathroom out on the new drawers. You can't really see them all at the same time but they still look same color. The next owner will probably never know (unless he's reading this). :)
We bought our first TT from Lakeshore. It was a Forest River Cherokee and we were very happy with the dealership. Just last October we traded it in and bought a Bullet 28 RLPR from a dealership in Troy Ohio. It was much closer, they had the model we wanted and was many thousand dollars cheaper than the Keystone dealership in our area of Nashville TN. We love this trailer and getting it ready for is first trip of 2012. We used it 2 and a half weeks before winterizing last year and it was a very comfortable.
