Drawers Complete

I have the drawers finished and fitted in the case.

I decided to put some urethane finish on the bed, drawers, and hull liner to protect the wood while I work in the master cabin. The wood gets stained, oil spots from my air tools, and like things are going to cause me more work, hence the finishing work. Ive got some of the drawers filled with some tools, screw selection and other odds and ends that Im using while I build the master cabin. Storage is a good thing. I fitted the plywood support for the mattress, so now I have a large platform I can use as a work bench.

If I had the drawer project to do all over again ( actually, I will as I work my way through the boat), the only thing Ill do different will be to modify the locking notch in the drawers, and use a little tighter fit between the drawer side and the drawer case. Other than that, Im good with the design.

Im going to build the sink vanity, my cabinet and desk, and the doors for the three cabinets that are in the master cabin. Once those builds are complete, Im going to sheath the guest cabin and bathroom, then build out those two rooms.

Im still in the dark as to what type of ceiling Im going to put in these three rooms. I have been leaning towards beaded board ceilings painted white, but Im not sure. Ive framed the ceilings with the intention of a beaded board ceiling, but Id like to explore more typical head liner material. If anyone has any experience with installing cloth head liner material, let me know what you think. I wont be installing any of the ceiling panels until the end of the build due to work that has to be done in those areas.
