I'm really impressed! Very good design and well built. The flat bed allows for some innovative ideas. ATC did a good job making your dream a reality.

Very cool DD. Props to Marty on the sink in a drawer solution!


Why is the floor built up under the dinette? Isn't just to sink the table leg holder in is it?

Very clever, seems like you have all the bases covered. That internal/external storage is brilliant, that's a lot of space. Congrats. Look forward to more pics of it in the field.

Need some padding on the cabinet back for lounging in the dinette.

Does the bed not pull out? Planning on staying single forever?

I'd put my mountain bike in a hanger like that, but some guys I ride with would never let it get suspended in by the front wheel for fear of stressing the rim. I wonder where you got that idea?

That is brilliant!

How does the plumbing work?


I have no idea. Magic as far as I know :lol:


Where is the Porta-Pot?


Not a feature I am interested in.

Two reasons: the bench seats were constructed with dimensions to allow a certain size storage box to be put into them via the outside hatches. This makes the seats taller than normal. The dinette floor both allows for an inset table stand holder and it raises the floor to a more comfortable position for the user. We are both around 6ft I think anyone shorter would want a taller floor in the dinette than mine.

Yes the boss already pointed out about the padded back I may do that with velcro at some point. I debated on the pull out bed. On this design it would be added on a non-standard way due to the position of the side window which would interfere in the normal slide-out position. However since my GF camps with me on average one or two nights a year I don't know if I want it at all.

The verdict is still out on the bike rack. I made the wheel loops removable and the bolt pattern the same as a standard Yakima fork block so I can change those out if I want.

Okay keep us posted on that and the other camper systems. I bought a top-tube hangy-style bike rack which I use on the camper to good effect, although I should have sprung for the platform style. Hanging them off the back wall in some fashion is a great idea since you don't have a back door.

Nice looking and well thought out camper there, DD. Hope it gives you years of good service and takes you to some really nice places.
