Airstream Renovation and Repair Day 9

The holding tank finally arrived and today after making two custom brackets, I got it attached to the underside of the RV.  Don’t you just love projects you have to do on your back underneath something? :)   Getting it in place allowed me to finally set the toilet and finish all the work in the lavatory area.  Chris spent a good part of the day sewing curtains for all the windows  and a privacy curtain for the lavatory area.   I finished the repair and refinishing on the couch frame and underneath storage after discovering some of the parts were missing.  I couldn’t figure out why it wasn’t going back in like it should when I realized some key pieces were not there, so I had to make  some parts to replace those.  I took apart the folding table and found it was not repairable, so built a new improved model.  This folds up and slides in a tidy pocket alongside the couch.  The mattress arrived for the bed, as did one of the sky lites.  We are down to the final punch list and the owner and I are getting excited to see it all done and ready to go.
