Lot of work you've got there. Think I would have built a step! :hammer:

That is what I like about doing your own conversion...build it, dont like it? Change it! build it, dont like it? Change it! build it, dont like it? Change it!

Until you finally get your ideal set up, run out of ideas, space, or run out of money!
I am still considering to get rid of my coachbuilt (too big) and buy to convert. My only obstacle? Her indoors!
She loves the set up we have, but I didn't like the 7+m walk to turn the radio back on every 20mins. (one job I have sorted tho).:dance:

easy to overdo the storage under the bed,i just sorted one out that had 45cm from bed toceiling,built by someone with a lot of stuff to take!putting in caravan windows is a bit more of a challenge than seitz innit

Caravan window are not to bad to do if you take your time doing them

i put them in mine,nice to know that 4 seitz would have cost a grand-almost saved enough to fill your tank!

I had about 1950 height to play with. Went for 900 under bed, 150 bed, 900 over bed. So basically split the space in half with a big shelf.

It's a fair compromise. You can sit up in bed nicely, crawl around in bed space easily. And you have a crawl sit up potential in the garage too.
