Very bright and cheery inside. I like the floor. We were considering wood and may re-think that.
Hope you have a great maiden voyage.

Love the hinge on the couch! Sometimes I feel my couch is going to come down and break my arm off when I have it tilted up and propped with my stick.
I would guess picture is for reference for me to make my own. your are not producing those are you?

I don't have the tools to mass produce them, I used a drill and angle grinder. A mill would be the proper tool to cut the slot...I can post dimensions.
