I rebuilt the upper cabinet on the right side to reduce the height and
shorten the length so it is out of he way of my head when I'm entering. If
you want I will send the dimensions but it is one of personal choice.

Sadly I don't think so. Darren Paget, a Fire Fighter in Canada (I think), used to make aluminum cabinet shells. I remember hearing that his quality was top drawer. He was TZE+.

My friend, Mark Martinek, has a good sized precision metal / sheet metal shop and could certainly make these if there is interest.

If I remember correctly, Darren mentioned that the aluminum cabinets took something like 75 lbs off of the roof of his coach.

Hi Steve and Debbie,
The original cabinet was 68" long and 15 !/2" high. I reduced the length to
64" and the depth to 12" using !/2 " plywood, built to the same cross
section as the original. The bottom is thus 13" deep and holds plates,
glasses etc.with ease. The two doors measure 11" x 31 1/2". The cabinet is
attached like the original. Now I don't bump my head and the extra window
space is great.
Hope this helps.
