Glad to see you've changed your mind about where the kitchen will be. I know you got the double sink for nothing, but if you install that you will regret not having bench top space for food preparation - or your wife will, which is more important.

The kitchen is in a better spot and will also have a 1m fold out bench top, where the kitchen was going to be is still going to be a drawer, just for storage. With the sink, lm going to cut it up to suit. so far the kitchen has cost me $80 (not including the stove $100), the frame work is made out of old school tables frames (30x30x2mm) and the sink is from them too (best thing about working for a school, they throw out so much stuff). All l brought is the angle metal (50x50x3 & 20x20x3mm), nut & bolts and the stakeborad bearings. The spot next to the kitchen will be a drawer aswell for the 80lt fridge and small pantry.

Looking good mate, i'm still going through ideas for my camper in the near future and i reacon the two of us think very much alike as it's going to be pretty close to yours just with a smaller tent.

Just a question, do you plan on running stock ratios and towing on the 33"s? I was just curious as i'm planning on running 30"s or maybee 31"s as my touring tyre and just have a set of Simex for offroading.

Ben
