Cuppa's camper canopy fit out
Is this 'Great Outdoors' a new forum section? Can't have been here long 'cos this is the first time I've seen it. Excellent addition, I hope it does well (& I'm sure it will).
Here's a link to my camper build elsewhere on the forum.

It's a slow process, but progress continues to inch along bit by bit.
I live out in the bush, too far to nip 'up the shops' whenever I need something, so a fair bit gets bought online, & often solutions are based upon what I have available at the time.
It's my second build, the first was our 7 metre Nissan Civilian bus which we spent 18 months travelling doing a figure 8 around the country in & still intend to travel in in the future.
The camper is intended to take us to the more remote areas of the country that the bus can't take us to'.
If interested in our previous travels or the bus fit out you can see these on my website
