I have a Summerland 2600tb.the Ac actually blows out into the main cabin at the ac no vents. Air doesn't flow into the bedroom due to the wall right at the ac. I would like a way to increase the air flow into the bedroom. Last year I put a box fan on the table blowing air into the room. But this is nosey and in the way. Was thinking of cutting a vent into the wall to see if this would help. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

We just installed a 4ft shield used on a fluorescent light fixture cut down to size. We drilled holes in it and attached it to the ceiling with L brackets. He used a Dremel with a blade for cutting plastic. It does obstruct the corner cabinet door a small amount. But now we have a cold bedroom! You can even close the bedroom curtain and unhook one of the hooks holding the curtain up and still get air blasting in. The end of it does cover the smoke alarm so we will have to come up with a (small door) way to get to the alarm should it go off. But since the same interior air is circulating it shouldn't effect it's performance. But you should check yours if you do this.
Great idea. And, in the Original Posters set up he has room above his cabinets so he could cut a hole in his bedroom divider wall and then use your idea to move air straight into the bedroom.
Bet that would work slick.
Could even add some sort of LED light in it to make it into a usable light too. (if needed)
I would make it easy to remove. It will probably get dust blown into it by the AC and need to be cleaned once and awhile.

What a cleaver idea. Wish we would have thought about that on our first TT.
***Edit*** We have the same 2600tb as the OP. We did relocate the smoke alarm which was not hard wired. And attached a small strap from the inside cabinet to the cabinet door so when opened it doesn't hit the shield.
