So do you have that shelf in the back all the time now mate or just the big trips?

Welcome there mate. I spoke to Andre about a drive ( day trip) if you are interested?

Nice one mate. But your links won't work for me at least, due to been linked straight to the other site

That wealth of knowledge will all be here soon too mate. Alot is already!! Just got to ask and people will share, again

Hi Guys i will attempt to throw up as much detail as i can. This is the table i made for my GUII. Should be same for other models but double check sizes first. Being stainless means it is easy to keep clean, and you can also put hot things striaght onto it if need (billy, camp oven, pots etc) I use it as a chopping board and everything. Materials 1.2mm stainless splashback 865mm x 420mm(got from sheet metal place) 1.2mm stainless table 820mm x 415mm with 7mm folded and welded edge (got from sheetmetal place) 1 peice of 7mm ply 900mm x 450mm (trimmed to fit under table) Contact adhesive 1 Piano hinge ( i used stainless one) Marine carpet to cover ply 2 wire eye straps 1.2mm stainless leader wire (got from BCF) Wire crimps (got from BCF) 1 Latch (as in pictures) Rivits. Tools Screwdrivers Grinder with thin cutting blade Rivit gun Drill Paint brush (cheap) Circular saw Stanley Knife Pliers or crimpers Now i apologise that i do not have any pics of me actually making this, don't think about this till after. I did get a few midway though. Cut plywood to size to fit on underside of table and glue in with contact adhesive. I clamped it and sat weight on it overnight till it dried. Drill 3mm hole in edge in prep for wire stays later When that is done cover ply with marine carpet. Remove plastic trim at top off door. Remove door trim if you wish and to look at were wires etc are.( I fitted my splashback over the door trim as it the slashback doesnt cover the whole door. about 40mm short at the bottom, so when table is fitted it does not foul on pinch mould when door is closed. Hold Splashback into postion and mark the top righthand edge to trim off with the grinder. (edge of door angles back in) Once back is cut and happy with where it will sit on door( Mine is **mm short from bottom and sits just high enough that the plastic trim when refitted will sit over the top edge), attach the hinge to the "Table" side first. I wanted it so you didn't see the hinge, so all you see is the knuckle. So the hinge is fitted to the table through the back egde with rivits. It is fiddly as you only have 7 mm to work with. Once done, Hold the splash back under hinge and mark holes piano hinge and drill. (only as many fixings as you wish. I did every hole) Fit slashback to door using only a couple off rivits at top to start with. Then you can fit table and hinge to bottom of splash back. You want the hinge to go behind the splash back, and attach with rivits in 2 holes only. You can do all rivits once all fitted and fit splashback to door. (i used 3 rivets down each side and a few across the top Have a piece of timber to support table With the top trim still off you want to fit these to top of door frame with rivits and cut slots in trim where needed and mark holes for latch (i put thin peice of ali on back of trim for something the screws could bit into) and refit. Attach leader wire to table using crimp and feed though eye at top at fit off a required length with crimp Close top and fit latch to bottom of table Finished Product I also fitted LED Strip to around top of door frame before i did the table. ENJOY Cheers olly Hope you can all make sense of all that scribble.

I am thinking of doing a run to the glasshouse on the 19th with some other friends. Will let you guys know if it goes ahead.

Yeah they are a good family/more camping/touring club than the typical bash and smash club. I haven't den alot recently with them, but have meet some great people over the 4 years since it started. Check out the website if you are interested. I will get my door table up on the DIY also. And the rear bar if I get time.

Nice set up mate. A jayco is on our short list for the future. Will be interested in hearing more about it from you after you have used it a few times.

Where bouts on goldy are you nutta?

The old hot dogs wrapped in foil are the gun also.

Very tidy mate.

Nice write up dronus

I win one of those plastic battery boxes and an austrailia hema road atlas once. But that is about it lol

Yeah KM and the other prob with the brush on stuff is it never dries hard. Hate using that stuff.

Yeah no worries mate. We are off to cape next year so may stop over at Townsville on way up or back.

Have nothing to post in here but. I am the first Qld based guy to post i this section. Anyway if I can help anyone locally let me know. I am on the gold coast.

Love the flex mate, and the onboard air set up done well.
