THE FINISHED RIG.


From the central entry door, looking left .

First there is the lift out , freestanding table. It can be used in several positions inside and easily lifted out for use under the awning. On the shelf over  the table is a fruit basket , our iPod music setup and a Nespresso U coffee machine.





On the right is the gas stove , three rings and one electric with a 600mm, vented Range Hood over.
A decent size oven and a griller.

The sink has a detergent dispenser , faucet and a fresh water tap which supplies filtered water.

Under the bench is the Dometic washing machine. It runs off the solar power supply through the inverter.
The spin cycle does 1000 revs per minute so the washing is quite dry before it gets to the line.


Opposite is the seating.
It is not big but it is set up for the two of us and is well proportioned and very comfortable.
The main seat is 2.0m long and can be a extra bed if required.
At night we sit against the red cushions to watch TV. The TV is mounted on a hinged panel which brings the screen around to face the seat.
 From this seat we look through to the bedroom.
The door of the cupboard on the right opens across the passage to provide privacy when needed.
At the end of the bench is the electric Waeco Frig/Freezer with the Micro Wave over.



There is access from the bedroom to the en-suite.

A decent sized vanity.

The round Stainless steel bowl has a faucet , a filtered fresh water supply and a soft soap dispenser.

There is a mirrored door on the toiletry cabinet.

The cupboard and drawers under the top provide heaps of storeage.

The shower slide also comes in handy when cleaning.

Water is saved by having the mixer valve return the cold water back to the water heater until it runs hot.

On the wall is a Body Wash and Hair Shampoo dispenser along with a scraper to dry off the floor.

There are towel rails over and under the windows.

Not shown is the five towel rails on the ceiling which allow the en-suite to be used as a drying room.

Note - the round black fitting low down on the wall is an inlet from the Diesel Air Heater which provides the hot air for the drying. We also run it before having a shower so we have warm towels.







The TMC Electric Toilet is tucked in around from the doorway.

The chrome corner unit has three shelves , two hold the hand towels while the top shelf has the spray cans of disinfectant .

The floor is non -slip industrial vinyl sloping down to a hair/lint trap waste.




A clearer shot of the vanity.
On the wall to the right is a clock , wall thermometor and a hand towel ring.

All this is protected by a shower curtain on a track which is 1200mm X 900mm . Closed while shower is in use , the walls stay clean and cleaning the curtain is easy.









The bedroom has a Queen Size bed with two side cabinets with drawers on full extension slides.

The cupboard over the bedhead provide hanging space and clothes storage in wire bins.

Under the bed are four large, deep drawers which are easy to access without having to lift the mattress up.

On the pelmet there is mounted the bedroom radio speakers which is a separate system from the lounge system.


Venitian Blinds are fitted throughout.


From the bed , on the right is the bifold doors into the en-suite and on the left access to the main area.
And finally the cab area.

To avoid the need to use the table for the computor we designed the cab area to , in just a few minutes, convert to a U shaped work station.

Into the dashboard is a 4 in 1 printer on the passenger side.






The side unit has the top hinged with storeage within it.

The next section lifts up and provides the main computor work space.



The passenger seat swivels to face the area chosen for the work.
The third leg of the U shaped work station is provided by a shelf that fits through the steering wheel and rests on top of the dashboard.

The setup is quick and simple and it works.
