Getting close to finish on my camper. Body is a combination of aluminum and composite. Twelve foot long with cab over. Cab over has a hinged tilt up section that provides roof access.

Looks awesome! Anymore info on those latches?
They are from Southco. Requires a 2” hole. They have them with keyed locks as well. I have them on my electrical box, but am switching to the keyed units for safety. Pay attention to ones you order as there are different model numbers for for thickness.
Doors close with satisfying clunk.

Machined a plate of plastic to accept feet on microbe. I them made a couple of bungees to hold it down. Its secure without being built in. Made the opening larger to accept future larger unit. Thought it would be a good idea to make things serviceable.

Made small doors that allow for access to electrical areas simple and secure. Latches to get changed out with ones that lock to keep it safe.

Went with Mastervolts new Combi along with their largest solar panel control. They have neat buss bars that are fused that keep the wiring clean and simple. Have room for two large batteries.

Snuck the toilet under the sink in an effort to make the wet shower as usable as possible. The proximity of sink to shower minimized the length of piping. I did not put a sink in the bathroom due to kitchen sink being right next to it. Did construct a little shelf for storage of bath stuff. The grates sit on small pucks to allow for draining. I simply ran a hose from sink to a captive hole in grate to drain sink. Left the piping exposed which allows great access and alerts to a leak before its gets to big. Shower is big enough for two!
