Here are a couple of projects I did to improve the interior of my 2003 EC 950 NorthWest Edition;

First shots are of the 'improvements' done to the Bathroom Sliding Door Runner. This piece kept breaking off because it was only mounted thru thin interior Luan wall material. I added the upright braces, which are attached to the wooden framework surrounding the vent cover.

Last shots ar of the table added to the right of the sink.
My wife has complained about the very small counter space we've got in the 950, especially if she's cooking on the top range. She brought home from WalMart a nice little wooden TV tray and was trying to use it set up on top of the cabover step-up. WAY to shakey to do anything with it.

So I mounted it with a piano hinge, double hinged the leg to fit under there lengthwise, and mounted small eyelets to (small) bungee cord it in the stowed position. We can still open the refrigerator door and the cupboard door to the left of the fridge, and it has doubled her countertop space as you can see in the overall view.

Nice job with the counter top extension.
I'd like to move to a smaller camper but giving up the countertop space is hard, especially when our gally gets a lot of use.

Russ sent me a couple of sink top cutting boards (about $15.00) that fit in the sink rims. . .we only use one at a time, but it helps expand the working countertop space too. If you don't have the cutting board insert, you might want to give him a call.

Great job on the counter top extension, The 950 is limited in that area.
I like the way that yours folds down and it looks like it is easy to use.
Wonder if the EC factory has any pieces of the original counter top material
around that they would part with?
