Robbie are 10x better than Allen head and 1000x better than Philips. If you doubt that I’ll include one inside a crate I’ll send to you... I’ll assemble using Robertson so you can see how much better they are.

The interior is finally starting to look like a Swedish sauna, lol
I won't be doing more paneling for now, not until I cut the roof.
Built another cabinet and painted it with some of my wife's left over kitchen paint, very beachy!
The lower shelf on that bed cabinet will double as a good little table for laptops!
I need to figure why my pictures look so distorted! But it gives a good idea.
One more window frame done! Might need to re-stain/varnish them...
Fridge is in place, just need to get going on the benches opposite side.
Window comes very handy when the little stove is roaring!
I could still install doors as I saved the cut-outs but kind of like it as is.
4 usb ports, should be good enough! Beside, black switch is for bed lights and silver one is part of the 4 way switches for main lights.

Looks like an Eco Fan. Heat of the stove creates Piezoelectricity to operate the fan. I have one on my wood stove at home.

Coming along nicely. I dig your design work.
Question: What are you doing about water? How big of a fresh water tank are you gonna use?
I am in beginning phases of some interior re-build out in mine.....

Some small updates... bed got started, drawer handles and window grabby thingy.

It's a heat powered fan. It's mostly to circulate air around and it does a great job at it!

Glad you dig it and looking forward to your re-design!
I have a 32g water tank mounted under the bed on the passenger's side (sandwiched in 1" insulation foam). Easy to fill (and monitor level) from the rear doors and water pump in same area, easy to service. A single pex line going up and around to the front (behind driver's seat) where's my sink. Under the sink I have a proportioning valve, a water filter with distinct faucet, shower output and a 6g water heater (heated by 110v shore or coolant via engine or Webasto hydronic).

Rgr That.
Will you utilize that 32g system for your drinking water, or carry that elsewhere?

Been a while since I updated my build...
Shower:
I moved the batteries from the side entrance and now have a nice shower pan and holding tank (still need to install a drain valve). The black plywood is temporarily and will be later replaced with a proper floor and the walls will need some work as well.
The final floor size is 20" x 31"
Electrical:
My sparky friend Jay came to the rescue again and greatly helped me with my electrical cabinet.
I now have my AC all hooked up, shore power included. Mounted my inverter/ charger, 5 fuse panels (for house, starter, key on...). Two DC-DC chargers (20a for house and 3a to trickle charge starting batteries from house).
There's a bunch more that we dealt with...
