Gav's Caravan Project.

I am currently living in a static caravan. I bought it off gumtree for £500 and now im looking to tart it up. Im hopefully going to try and use my cnc to cut some parts for it so I though I would post a build log here.

I had an idea to cut some floor tiles in the style of MC Escher but im not sure I can afford the cost of the wood if there is going to be a lot of waste.

If it was on the telly it would be called, "Pimp my Trailer"

Maybe there is a timber yard, kitchen fitters, shop fitters, or similar that have loads of offcuts that would do ?

Why the F@#K would you want or waste good timber on a floor that looks like a load of squashed frogs.? . .

I think it's very nice, it's also nice to see a well thought out analytical aproach to a mathematical problem,

What was the actual wood you used? don't see it on the blog

I thought it said veneered MDF was chosed over veneered ply for it's clean cutting at the corners?

Yes it was fun kicking the crap out of the old walls. Engineering/design can sometimes be a lot of thinking and not much doing so it's nice to have a project where finish and tolerances are less of a concern..

stove is in!
