    Further plans: Finishing the kitchen- plumb the sink drain, hook up propane for the stove, arrange storage. Sorting out a ladder for roof rack access. Heat- considering maritime solid fuel concepts.

    West Coast and I are on parallel tracks here. I'm also in WA, outfitting a Fleet for winter ski outings, and pondering heating, roof storage and etc. Anybody have thoughts on this...

    Gallery: http://www.wanderthewest.com/forum/uploads/gallery/album_1073/gallery_5352_1073_5736372.jpg I struggled to get them all rotated properly, but the rotation I set while editing seems to have no connection to the rotation while viewing the gallery. Sorry!

    New lift panel made by my brother, 1/4" steel tubing, pinned near the upper corners when popped. It'll probably outlast the rest of the camper hands down.

    Gallery forthcoming soon! Pictures uploading....I thought I had more "before" pictures, evidently I forgot to save them when I got a new phone. I'll get more detail shots in the gallery as the build comes to a close, or to address any questions from the forum.

    New passenger side bench, with hinged lid and tapered shape for more center footroom, really seams to help it feel bigger.

    I also made some changes to the interior. The bed was tiny, so I added another hinge and panel, and made it all work so it rests on the kitchen counter when the bed is up. When its down the additional panel is the bench against the window facing the cab. I rebuilt the bench/bunk along the...
