In the process of finishing the first guestroom pyramid

Without transportation no progress. So, because our broken truck, we had to order materials to go on with the process of finishing the first guestroom pyramid. 

We had to discover a system to equalize the concrete floor and did. YouTube this time did not give us the optimal information. A hard job with a mixture of sand and cement. The first try-out part I decided to take out again. Still we now need a thin layer of special finish to make the floor great to put the laminate. 

A glas door for the bathroom is placed by a small company of our village. It's not exactly what I expected but we give it a try. We also finished the tiling inside the bathroom (connection with this doorframe) so with the exception of placing the ceiling, the bathroom is finished. 

We placed some q-con blocks and build in a safe and the bed lighting and installed the wall sockets. After that tiling and make preparations for special carpet to be glued on some walls. Just to make the internal atmosphere (sound) good. 

For the nearly flat roof parts we also installed additional 7,5 cm thick 'Stay Cool' isolation blankets. We will install a lowered ceiling for that parts. 

We got our truck back but immediately with problems again and went back to the garage. Being there it worked out not only this problems but also no possibilities to start anymore. It took the garage another day to fix them. In the evening, after having dinner at a restaurant nearby, the truck was delivered at our site. The next morning we discovered again not all the problems were solved. It's safe to drive but in a couple of days the truck need to go back again to check and adjust the back breaks. 
An ongoing process. So far I think we nearly changed 75% of the car into new. 

Again some pictures about our progress.
