hey Jofa,

Give the man in charge some dinars, so he will forget, its a home build.
How is it called?
And if, one time, when your TT is finished, we can camp together somewhere in Europe. We make a European gathering, with Heikki/Classic Fin.
There are not so many members of the European chapter, now there are somewhere about 10 members

Hi Norm! Thanks for welcoming. I agree, forum is great!!!

i am still considering two dor option. There are pros and cons to consider. I agree two door's is handy option but there are some cons on the inside of the trailer.
Will elaborate my TT shape soon.

I will back mezmo on the two door idea. Or first Mega Mini the first one the company built only had one and while we are a married couple even making the bed was more of a chore. We have also encountered camp sites that were narrow enough to create problems with one door or the other forcing us to use only one.

:lol: I see you are familiar with croatian way . Aren't we a little corupted nation? :x

I am so far from camping in my TT, but if I ever built it I'll be more than glad.

P.S. There are no dinars in Croatia since Yugoslavia is gone. Our currency is kuna.

Quite frankly neither did we. The traditional Grasshopper design only had one door along with the three doors in the galley. The folks that designed it asked for feed back when we picked it up, and we gave them lots. #1 was the only one they built with one door and the only one to not have the three doors in the galley.
I don't know what conditions you encounter in your camping areas but I felt it might be a bit less than perfect.
One of the things that is interesting is those from other countries who have brought pictures and a bit of a view of the everyday life in their countries, and lots of pictures :pictures:

It would appear that the area under the counter top is open and not used or accessible. Take it from first hand experience, you can never have too much easily accessible storage space.

countertop is divided in three segments. Left one is for sink and plumbing, under right one goes batery & converter, and is liftable. Center segment is for the cooler and is also liftable. Everything else goes in front box.

I will also inplement two more tables that will attach on the outside of the trailer so i can cook outside of the TT.
