So it's probably about time I post something on here. I've been lurking for a few years. I've gone through a few designs, but finally settled on one. I have an engineering background and have built a few pieces of furniture around the house, but nothing as complete and complex as a camper trailer.
Initially, I had thought to make something similar to the popular profiles. (benroy, grumman, grasshopper, etc..) but there was always the question of what to do with the extra width since my trailer is 78" wide (as you will see in the next post). I could have cut off the welded on wings, but the tow vehicle is about 78" wide so I didn't feel the need to make it narrower. Instead there was this side space on the either side of the bed. at first I thought it would be kind of like a place to sit or place things as to not get the bed dirty.
Early designs:
The more I thought about this, the less I liked it and decided to turn the bed sideways, ditch the galley and go for more a widget/wanderer style. I have a family of 3, so this would work out better as it would be likely I would get banished to the hammock outside if I built it to only sleep 2...
Here is an image of my final design.
