Camper roof and door progress

    I finally got the angle, hinges and hardware, so I can hopefully finish it and use it this summer. The roof and rear hatch doors are done and need to be covered with fabric. For the door I found a window at the Rehabit store and disassembled it and cut it shorter.






The roof installed 

Inside view of the door with latch installed. Just need to seal the wood work.

The aluminum pipes  that will raise the roof  will slide on the wooden rafters.

The rafters overlap causing a slight bow to help shed off water.

I used a ratchet strap to clamp the roof sides while the glued biscuits dried.

Front inside view. Need to stain the roof to match and maybe make some insulating panel inserts.
