Thanks ski3pin for the extra pictures
The deck was supposed to be ready for my trip to Sacramento to pick up the camper but it wasn't so I had to modify my little flat deck trailer to haul the camper back.takesiteasy said:The flatbed approach makes a lot of sense. Have you had the bed fabricated yet? Curious to see some pics of that too.
Ted, it is a one piece roof with a machine pressed seam down the middle. It is thick material, with ridges and valleys for strength, and a textured surface. The sheet material is expensive to buy this way but the ATC guys believe it to be the best choice for up top.Ted said:Did I miss something? One of Ski3pin's photos looks like ATC is now using a one piece roof, but of the same aluminum as the siding with a pattern stamped into it?
I believe this is key in the problem I had with the smooth roof on my camper. The smooth aluminum looks nice but does not have the rigidity of the textured aluminum.with ridges and valleys for strength, and a textured surface
I did many sketches of floor plans and my wife and I kept coming back to the side dinette layout as the type we preferred which meant the camper would have to have a rear door. After building a full scale mock up of our favourite layout and sitting in it, we were convinced that was the way to go.super doody said:Manxman,
Congrats on the camper and I look forward to your interior build! Just curious why you decided to go with the door on the rear instead of the side like other flatbed campers.
Cheers

The great thing about ATC is nothing is standard.Vento said:Looking good, did you order the standard shell model or did you add a few things?
