Okay now that I have a break from school, major work will be put into the van in the next coming days.

I am out of mdf, and am picking up around 8-10 sheets tomorrow. I will be getting it from Lowes, and Ill get to see how its different than HD mdf.

Pics of that coming tomorrow night/late afternoon after I land.

But to summarize, Ill do where the van started at, to where it is now.

While home, I hope to:

Finish the whole wall (3 layers of mdf everywhere, both sides and floor have 2, roof one, corners none) and get ready to test over winter break

Get battery hooked up to the kicker wire

Get the van a tuneup

Okay just got back from lowes. Their mdf seems higher quality than hd from what I remember. I think they use 2 different brands/mills.

Lowes is a lighter color and seems a lot smoother.

Anyway, there was only 4 sheets left on the ground level, and I didnt want to wait a year to get more.

This should get me close to finishing the 4 sides and corners, but Im going to have to get more on Thanksgiving or on Friday.

I thought they would fit fine in the van, but it turns out I was wrong. It was the worst 10 minute ride ever. I could barely turn the steering wheel, I had the seat up so far.

Hopefully more updates tonight.
