If anybody doesn’t believe in magic, try to visualize some sort of structure in your head, and then sit down with a CAD wizard and watch it come to life.
Justin is so quick and competent, even I don’t feel the need to wrestle the mouse from his hand and take over!
That’s what we did last week with our camper design with Justin at Koops’ Tinsmiths. Over the past few weeks, most of our camper parts ordered from the US have arrived here in Belize. So, we have exact sizes, and all the information we need to make sure all the pieces we have will fit and work together.

Driver side view with windows and water heater hatch
We already had a rough shell and wall design. Now, we know that with a few tweaks, that design will work with the rest of the pieces. We spent almost four hours placing windows, door, roof vents, escape hatches, and utility hatches. We also designed boxes for water tanks and plumbing and electrical components. We came up with a plan for external lights as part of the vehicle. A few wall panels needed to be adjusted, and we had to compromise on a few minor details, but overall we are getting EXACTLY what we want.

Now, we just need to get the build scheduled and started!
