I gotta ask, what program do you use to draw these?

I'm using Microsofts Visio. I like the interface. I can make stencils and then I can just drag over a door or camp stove etc.

I cleaned up my inside view. I think it is pretty much the way I want it.

That's a nice layout. Very tempting - I'm still in the dreaming & scheming stage, but a kitchen and shower would be nice...

anyway, just a thought about the shower, this thread has some tips for living with a wet bath:

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f48/how ... -5922.html

You might want to consider including a shower rod up towards the ceiling (or a recessed track if you can engineer it). Use a shower curtain with suction cups to partition off the toilet - it'll keep it dry while the shower is in use.

That would keep the TP dry. Good Idea.

Water shouldn't hurt the toilet. Just remove the TP first. And why not save more room and shower sitting down.

I'll have to see what happens when I start the build. Things could change. But if there is a chance to save room that is always a good thing.
