Yes! Thank you! I've had a lot of experience over 20 years fitting out 110's so had got some ideas for things that might be useful. My aim is to have 'things' that I carry do at least two jobs, maybe three. SO a bed base can be a seat or a ramp for the dog to walk up to get into the 110 (old dog!). A cupboard door can be a table top or a seat. And so on. Its good fun!

Yes same principles for the design of my cell, each item served several functions.

Yes - that was the long post I made on ExPo last year - I thought I would condense it into a slideshow/film to make it easier for people to read.

Thanks! (Make your own?) :-)

Very nice job

finally, what has been the cost of all of this

Very nice job

finally, what has been the cost of all of this

Thanks!

Cost for all this:

All alloy for roof: profiles and sheets
Solid alloy 12mm perspex yacht deck hatch
4 x gas struts
Stainless steel hinge
All stainless fastenings throughout
Ally cargo tracking for outside
All LED internal lights
RCD mains hookup
Solar controller
150W solar panel and wiring
HD fridge slides
Various small slides
Roof seals rubber, various
Rivets throughout
Insulation
Timber
Fabric for sides
Stainless steel sink and plumbing
Flipper pump tap
Paint, etch undercoat and acrylic top coat.
Respirator.

Total £2350 (Euro: 3260.00)

The roof alone is about £1600 in materials (and labour for folding & welding) SO about Euro 2220.00

If you omit the hatch, use cheaper materials eg non-stainless hinge, do welding yourself, and less 'luxurious' inside it would be possible to do it for Euro 1500.00 I'm sure.
