Partition walls up.


The cabin is really looking like a boat cabin now that most of the oak t&g is done. The partition walls for the shower/toilet are in and cladded. We have made a door for this room. Made from solid oak and my old favourite - t&g.
 I was going to use dowels on the door frame but it all became a bit complicated and time consuming! I therefore went for the trusted glue and screw method which performed very well.
 We now put our attention to cladding the seating area. At first we were simply going to apply clad to the seat frame. I thought this looked a bit plain. A bit more time was spent cutting architrave with mitred 45' cuts. We think the finish looked superb, especially in oak. See pics below.
Top of the door. The darker frame looks good.
The architrave on the rear seat. Makes it look like a quality piece of furniture.
A view of the shower room. We used a solid piece of oak for the room edges and sanded the exposed edge.
Looking good but I think I'am OAK MAD!
