Skipper,

What side of the road do you drive on? My first reaction is, your door is on the wrong side. If you are in the US, you probably want to build this way...

Welcome Skipper,
Your design looks good. The only suggestion I would make is to move the stove away from the bed. You are sure to get grease spatters as it is now. I know you would like to keep your water sources together but in this case it's water or cooking splatters. 8)

Enjoy the playground. ;)

It looks like a tab huh. I looked at the tab trailer but it had no bathroom... that was a must, I have a fiancee that'll be goin with me n' that was a problem.

thanks for the suggestion about the door, and the stove, i just put them where they loooked good but those are both good ideas. I want to frame it out of metal but i'm not sure how to do it, i posted anouther thread about that, i'm not sure about how to bend the smooth shape.

i like the design quite a bit, my fiancee and I are going to start building our own camper pretty soon and your design looks very promising.

Good luck with your build!
