DIY RV Dining Area Makeover

We completely revamped our dining are of the 5th wheel. We wanted to brighten the area, gain more storage, more seating, and more table surface for our big fam. We were able to accomplish all of that and more. Check out the entire process in this video. We: reran some wiring, built a platform, laid some flooring, installed faux shiplap on the ceiling and floor of our slide, built booth seating, made a custom telescoping butcher block table w/ integrated chess board, and brightened the area with cool colors and LED lighting!

    I am 55 from a family of 8 kids and couldn't imagine being from a small family. Amazing memories from childhood camping and traveling packed into a station wagon pulling a pop-up camper. You look like an amazing family. Also, very impressive design, sewing, and woodworking skills. You should be proud!

Now they feel like we live like kings 😂 It has been a great transition for us. We all have a greater appreciation for each other and focus less on the things. It has actually been amazing to simplify and minimize in every aspect. So many things we don’t NEED. All we really need is each other ❤️ May God bless you and your family as you move forward!

    Beautifully done, and the gameboard integrated into the table is impressive, but it’s a checkerboard, not a chessboard. In chess the rightmost corner for each player is white. In checkers that square is traditionally black. I guess it doesn’t really matter, you can call the black squares white, lol, in chess any color pieces could be white as long as you play consistently, so why not the squares too?

You raise valid questions about the grout possible cracking, but it’s not something we’ve had to deal with in our case. If you’re worried about it on your project there are other options besides tile and grout that you could entertain.

    It’s this base, but black, and it works much better on a lighter, more balanced table (like a square or a circle). This base works, BUT because our table extends so far out on the two sides, it teeters A LOT from kids leaning on it while in use. It slowly kinda rocks intake down in height because of all the leverage it has on the long sides. If you are doing a longer table like ours you may want to use 2 table legs . That would definitely stabilize it. boatplicity.com/9066042-springfield-marine-1660230-ped-3-stage-table
