    The CROW/RAVEN thought you were already done with your 5 x 8 walkaround and was applauding.
    Assumed it shouldn't take more than 3 seconds, per the video.

    Your radiant smile said it all, even before you spoke!
    Congratulations on having your Thesis recognised and respected for it's quality, and your subsequent award.
    The Chuck Box is an ideal sanctuary in which to work undisturbed, and your intention to make it multi faceted was inspired genius!
    Your use of space is exemplary, with superb ergonomics, more than adequate storage, and that beautifully configured, dedicated Electrical Cabinet and Heater Bay!
    Your meticulously detailed Electrical Cabinet is an absolute gem! Precise cable routing, neat and clean connections, it's simply outstanding!
    Ditto the folding beds/benches and table, which not only looks wonderful, but works really well too.
    That bookshelf is going to be great, and I look forward to seeing it.
    There is so much aesthetically beautiful, supremely practical detail in your Travel Cabin, but the one aspect that I particularly liked was your cable conduit to the rear door from the wall!
    That was so well done, you'd got the length just right to ensure it'd fold properly and it was just so neatly done!
    Your Travel Cabin is light, airy and bright and i find it elegantly simple and simply elegant!

    @mikescomputercorner1204 2 роки тому

    gratz on passing your thesis and you have shown some very good ideas in fitting out your camper. Yes you definitely need some locking mechanisms on those folding legs and they do look a bit on the flimsy side but I suppose if you are jumping around on the bed it should be ok lol.. I noticed you haven't made any allowance for cooking inside you trailer and there have been some awesome little stoves either wood burning or gas fired for that . If you utilized the butane fired single burner stoves you could maybe have a fold down bench off your bed at the front to allow a place to do some cooking. Here in Australia where I live we don't get conditions anywhere near as cold as what you have but it would still be nice to heat up some food on the small butane stove or even a small microwave if you took frozen meals to defrost and eat. A cold morning in the middle of winter might get to 5 celsius but it warms up quick and our days are between 18 and 22c usually.
