Some Interior Fotos

This is what I would like my tiny house to look like.  Because we really like the layout.  And of course, will be saving as much of this as we can for the rebuild.  We don't intend to keep the bunkbeds, but here is a view of them and what is under the bottom bunk.

This is the drinking water tank, and water pump.

To the left of this is the thermostat controlled propane heater.

I don't intend to use this heater system.

Just to the right of the bunkbeds is the bathroom.

With the tub / shower

You sit in this with your knees up in the air.

The view down the aisle to the bathroom.

With the bathroom door closed, you can see the clothes closet and a nice view of the refrigerator.  Directly under the clothes closet on the right is the miniature water heater (to be replaced by a tankless water heater).  Directly below the water heater is the converter and AC distribution panel (or should be - see all the wires).  Left of those are a few drawers.

Right of the refrigerator is the stove with oven.

I do think I'd move the window above the sink, upward a little bit.

This isn't just a kitchen sink ... this is lots of storage area!!

This is the upper section of the dining area.

The actual dining area that converts into a bed ...

and, has storage!

The couch in the front that pulls out into a bed,

with extra storage under it.

Even without a loftbed in it, this little trailer was designed to sleep 7.

I am so going to keep as much of this layout as possible.

Now that I have emptied it out ... I need to take a bunch of measurements, and as gently as possible start removing everything from inside the trailer.  While photo documenting all the hidden stuff like wiring and plumbing.

Motivation ... Or Where to put the STUFF ...

I got rid of 4 boxes of stuff out of the storage trailer,

More STUFF to go ... 

My intention is that instead of Chop & Slash the trailer ...

I will uncover cabinets and storage areas to find out how the wiring and plumbing was all done.  Measurements taken.  Drawings made.  Things saved for future use.  

Other than the bunk beds in the back left ... I really like the layout of this camping trailer.  I think it would function well as a tiny house ... with a sleeping loft ... and a high ceiling in the living/dining area.

Instead of bunk beds, we could put in more cabinets and storage.  In fact, that area is large enough to put in a regular bathtub/shower combo and put a linen closet/storage where the tiny tub/shower is located.   Instead of angled, we could run the bathroom door straight across and access the tub from next to the sink/lav.  Of course, I'll have to see what is under the bottom bunk ... and determine if it can be relocated somewhere else ... HOWEVER, my wife hasn't agreed to that yet. But I might just do it anyway, because there are times it would be nice to just soak our older aching bodies.

And I need to seriously get my windows ... 

before I go talk to the SIP manufacturer.

Look Under The Couch

It always pays to look under the couch-bed ... 

you just never know what is lurking under there.

In couch form 

( I had to dig all kinds of STUFF off of it to find it.)

Yes, that latch needs fixing ... 

Here it is as a bed ...

super long and wide enough to sleep two people.

Here's where I pull everything out and look underneath it ...

notice that water damage to the floor section?

Yep.  It has something to do with the corner seam ...

and water flowing down to rot other wooden parts.

I can probably save and re-use the couch bed ...
It's ideal as you get older and climbing into the loft
doesn't seem so exciting ...
or you've had one too many brewskies ...
