Kitchen

The worktop, is made from Bushboard splashback (£20 on eBay) - which is also used for the sliding table. Since the splashback is only 9mm, some 6mm ply is glued to the back to be able to use the knock in trim. The slot for the trim had to be made oversize so that the trim could be glued in rather than knocked in. I can see some scratches already, so I'm not sure that the right choice was made here - but it's done. The microswitch tap is DLT540C and the sink is a Smev 930 both from Caktanks.

Worktop fitted

The usual choice for mains sockets and switches for motorhomes, is Italian firm CBE. After spending a few days looking at the options (surround, mounting plates, backbox), I just ended up with a headache. There were some many bits and pieces need to configure, that the costs really start to mount. Maybe its not so expensive for the professional fitters. Anyway I chose some very nice black flush fitting screwless switches and sockets from Seeswitches. These are full size but I think that the flush fit makes them look the the part, and they you can use the standard backbox.

Since the van is small, I was not comfortable using gas to cook with, and since we mainly intended to stay in camp sites, I decided to use electric as the main cooking source. So I bought Tefal toaster oven on eBay and an induction hob from Aldi.
This can be adjusted for power in 10 steps from marked 200 to 2000W
The power settings  work at three levels 1200W, 1400W, and 1800W. Below the 800W setting the unit cycles on and off every few seconds, using 1200W pulses, above this it the cycles are much shorter.

The table stows in the underfloor area that was originally part of the wheelchair ramp.

 

Table erected

When the front seats are rotated, there's plenty of room for 2 people. I practice we only ever turn the drives seat.
