I will be building this module on the back of an Iveco Daily. We are going to have single beds that drop down into a queensize. We could then have water tanks under each seat. The hole underneath the bed will be a drawer & the table underneath the drawer
, will be on slides

We are very much looking fwd to the finished product. Both previous owners, Gary and Sue, and the Greene's did a wonderful job creating and maintaining the vehicle over the past 12 years. Just needing a bit of a facelift.

(above) The fold down bed platform is clear vertical grain fir, 1/4" thick, laminated with fiberglass and epoxy, set into a CVGF frame, reinforced with carbon fiber...Early in the lay-up...
(above) More wood and CF added at the outermost edge...
(above) And more... I'm going for a stiff edge that needs little support under it...
(above) The other panel is built a bit lighter...
(above) Back to the seating lay-out...

From a layout perspective, it kind of lets me know that the Greene's, the original builder of this rig, (known in our house as Adventure Vehicle 2, or AV2) had a pretty good idea of what they were doing regarding the layout. Ours is simply a modification of the original. Paul has tweaked it somewhat for our own needs and by doing so we have added things that are important to us: A pass through to the cab, more, roomier and more versatile seating, a couple more storage cabinets, and about 15 square feet of floor living space.

Thankfully he is building this for us and not you! And truth be known, I am glad you won't be joining me...in said shower.

Surely you could have squeezed a few more clamps in there, if you were really trying.

That is the sign of a good shop. Massive amounts of clamps and jigs. What glue are you using?

Ok, I guess I forgot you were going Carbon Fiber... I was thinking in woodworking terms.
