Rivet Updated Countertops in My 34' Excella

The new countertops are now instaled in my 1983 34' Excella! These are pics of the dinette area, the big change was in the "Entertainment Center." More pics to come, I ran out of light and card memory this evening. (I was shooting with a borrowed from work Olymus E10 with a 64 MB card saving RAW images. The card would hold 8 files before downloading.) I will have more pics soon.

OK, after my first attempt to submit timed out after about 10 minutes, I tried again. This time my attachments disappeared. Look at http://www.airforums.com/photos/brow...0&userid=17830 to see the pics.

Rivet Counter Top Update

Hi Marc,

Yes, I did. With help from my older brother Ron. He has a shop setting up to build fiberglass jet boats. His table saw and scroll saw came in handy. Not to mention the availabilty of resin and glass to fill in those little opsies that come up every now and then. The shelf was the hardest one. Small is harder than large, and it is bound on all but the small side. Lots of cleaning and finishing. I just got it in place shimmed up yesterday, and I am already getting used to having it. The big thing is the support for the 37" LCD TV/Monitor on the "Entertainment Center." I'll get pics up soon.
