I made it 3' x 4'. 12 sqft out of 128. It could be made smaller but I like taking a real shower. The control is more how much water you have. I have 42 gal.
The other plus is the cassette toilet. No black water tank.

Started the floor today.

1951M1078 · Apr 11, 2019

Almost all of the 1 1/2" floor foam is down. And most of the 1/2" sub-flooring.

Looks good Butt! The plywood subfloor is stronger if you install it perpendicular to the floor joist. Lessing the flexing that could crush your floor foam. Were you planning to install a 2nd layer? I don't mean to be critical but it's a nice project and don't want you to regret it.

The hard wood floor of the box runs front to rear so I ran the plywood left to right.

Floor is closed up front. Now need to workout the rear area ? Not ready to do the rear door with the lift ?

1951M1078 · Apr 19, 2019

Lots to do before Expo 2019. Worked on the sub-frame and bumper.

Needed to get this installed so I can workout the water a gray tank.

Like minds!!! Look forward to see how you do your lock in place that allows you to tow with it/provide slow down of car that rear ends you just enough to avoid their decapitation. Granted that rearender is sorta earning their own a Darwin award ... but then again they are someones mom, dad, or sibling... so guess it is worth it.

Just trying to keep all safe . Ok,safe,er ?

[FONT=&quot]A day of building brackets. Drilling a 1" hole takes some time.

[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]

[/FONT][FONT=&quot]The short one's are 3/8" and the long are 3/4 (2 x 3/8"). I don't have anything over that. My bad. On the long,it will pass-through the 1/4 x 3 x 3 . Will slot the bumper and weld it in place. Will be a pull point that will end at the 1" point in the chassis. Bore to come.[/FONT]

1951M1078 · Apr 23, 2019

Parts all tacked.

Finish weld Wednesday .

What's the plan for Port/Starboard stability... chains or?

1951M1078 · Apr 23, 2019

Tow points.

have not added the bracing yet. May not until after the show ? Too much other stuff to do.

1951M1078 · Apr 24, 2019

All welded up. But needed to pull something apart. I forgot about the lift on the back of the truck. Don't want to have a problem with the hitch !

Still need to add some bracing but that will come later.

1951M1078 · Apr 25, 2019

Sub-frame welded and installed on box. Now on to the water holder.

1951M1078 · Apr 26, 2019
