The tongue box looks great! Nice integration into the curved front.

I like your bunk bed arrangement. It seems like you gain a lot of interior space. If you get a chance can you estimate the distance from your floor to the top mattress of each bed please? I may steal your design for a future build.

Because of the curve in the back wall the bottom bunk is only 72 inches. The top bunk is 75 inches. Both are 27 inches wide. Can't recall the height of the two but will check them this evening.

Finally got the AC installed. Found a deal at a local church second hand ministry. Was able to get two Carrier 5000 btu units for 100 dollars. I ran it for a week and you could hang meat in the camper. I think it will keep us comfortable. ImageImage

The foam for the bunks arrived and are very comfy. I need to get the seat covers done and I think we will be ready to go try her out.

Well I got her set up. Haven't had a chance to camp yet but I did take a nap in it this afternoon. It sleeps well.

Congratulations on your maiden voyage. She turned out very nice! :thumbsup: :applause:

By the way, have you had a chance to weigh it? If so, what is the weight?

1580 empty. I did t weight when we loaded it but my guess is some where around 1800. Most of that is water and battery.
