I have a friend doing some interior work on our coach and I was looking for a picture of a "equipment" drawer near the door under the dinette seats on the right when you open the door. I want to be able to grab equipment, oil etc without having to go into the coach.

Browsed through the picture site but couldn't find exactly what I was thinking about.

Also does anyone have a template to make the curved window frames to hold the blinds in place?

Thanks!

I suggest you search for tool box on the photo site.

I am working on the valences also, I just searched the photo site:
http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/window-valances/p18190.html
also scribed the edge, for my templates.
i want to do:
http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/valances/p4101.html
but...
I also have been looking for the "h mullion" that some used for the
valances, the part listed is from home depot but they no longer sell that
type of window any longer... so they don't carry the h mullion. went by
lowes they had some but it was huge and expensive, 40 buck for a 6 or 8 ft
section,
some one on the list was going to buy the h mullion from an online source
but have not heard how successful his endeavor was.

Here is the company that manufactures the mullion. I've talked to them and they are suppose to send me information on how to order, but it has been a week and nothing.

Rob Mueller did a bang up job on installed tool drawers in his Avion, Double Trouble. The Avion's have plywood seat platforms, so not difficult at all to work with. P.O. of my Avion cut a door in the top of the seat base, Remove the cushion and get immediate access to the interior of the seat box. The size of the enclosed area is larger than the old style military foot lockers.
If you are near one, IKEA has some great drawer assemblies that could easily be used in the GMC environment.

I am working on the curved valences at the moment. I just held a heavy gauge piece of cardboard up to the door frame and traced the curve at that point. Cut the cardboard, and you have your template. Test fit it, mine is very close.
I do like the plastic square tubing cut for the sides. Take the curve template, cut the shape into a piece of 2 x 4, heat the plastic with hot air gun, then put the heated plastic between the two halves of the 2 x 4, clamp down until the plastic cools. Should work just fine. This will be my approach.
