And something to heat water, maybe a kettle or something of the sort. I wouldnt need space for food prep or oven nor almost kitchen stuff storage.

    The brick effect behind the kitchen counter is excellent, as is the electric water pump and full-size sink and cooktop. It's such details that make the difference between a typical, tiny "RV kitchen" and yours, which looks more like a regular house kitchen, despite the size limitations. The TV bracket system and bed is intelligently made, too. You've given me some great inspiration and you should be deservedly proud of your work.

So much measuring, cutting, and fitting. Your bed is much simpler, uses less material, and probably took you one tenth of the time to complete.
