Your cupboard looks awesome, I wish i could get such a perfect cut following the shape of the van, how did you manage it, and who was your supplier for carpet? Also what sort of ply did you use for lineing?

Thanks

carpet is from the local carpet place just cheap cord carpet
the ply wood i got from wood yard thin stuff
2x1 wood to make the frame first then clad with the ply wood and then carpet
to get the shape of the side of the van is very easy
but hard to explain but will try
you need to hold the wood up so it touches the top part of the wall by roof
then using a block of wood hold the pencil against the block then run the block of wood down the side of the van while your drawing a line along plywood
very very simple and it works a treat perfect line every time
:D
