    Well, I've just spent the last hour or so being antisocial!! Very interesting thread. Very elaborate build inside.. Do they really need to be that technical?? Was thinkin of a Pot Belly stove for heating. 12/24v for lighting. Separate 240 v system for powered sights or genset. Gas fridge and stove, simple twin grey water tank.. One for shower and sink, the other for solids... Built out of stainless, and the grey water is pressured thru the solids tank for cleaning..
    Like the 60mm wall thickness. I was thinkin of 50 x 50 x 3 RHS uprights with insulation. Alli outer skin and timber inner. There'd be two 100 x 50 ring beams at about waist height for power, water lines etc..

    Gotta sell the 101 first and then find a truck!!

    I emailed him (his name is Neil) to say 'well done on the blog and the truck' and he said he's planning to drive around Europe for a couple of years, and then ship the truck to America for more travels.

    If you had any questions, I reckon he'd be happy to answer them.

    Nice truck to do all that in.

    No worries. How long are you up at CP? We will be coming through in a week or so in the MAN, on our way up to the Kimberleys.

    Surely you'll want some turrets on your build!
