Dennis, the material is sanded and then polished with a buffer. I used two grades of rouge. I will be glad to give you exact details when you are ready to do this work.

Dawgman, what's making you so stern today?

Woke up in a honory mood today, but got some ideas I want for my bus, and I like what I see and doubt you will build it for me, with my $ available, so I need to know how its done so I can start obtaining materials. Regal plastics is a 1/2 mile away from me on the same street, I can probably get some scraps for free or very cheap, SORRY to put the pressure on you, but you wetted my appetite with these pics.

PS:I am also going to turn on my painting again, so look out world, the mood actually started last night at a 115 mph in lil blue, they say what don't kill you makes you stronger, we shall see. I also want to know if you can do it with different colors of light for the mood effect.

Here's one where the middle strip was a red translucent. It was lit with clear rope light.

This next series was for a rolling doctor's office. The front of the bus used a blue center strip lit with clear rope light. The first pic is of the passenger side cooler box.

My assistant and I are about to glue the Avonite sink onto the galley countertop.

Here is a sign I made. It was a tricky piece of engineering.

Here is the sign lit up. I rabbeted into the top of the table which is directly behind the driver's area.

This is the desk area in the back of the doctor bus.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for the compliments on my work.

Now, we have a series of pics from Dave Matthew's bus.

To begin, here is a pic of the galley top. Even the refrigerator doors were adorned with solid surface material.

Another photo of that top.

A sliding booth table.
