From memory, Robin had some frames made.

From the dormobile perspective, I can see that it would clear the wardrobe, but would def interfere with the spicerack(s)

Where did you obtain the Carawagon style awning frame from?
Yes, I made a batch of frames a couple of years ago - Simon bought one of the last from that batch a week ago.
Here's the original thread HERE.

If there were any more interest I could make another batch, though after all the issues I had with the galvanizers, unless I can find a reliable firm I might supply them un-galvanized, or coated in Zinga, which is 'supposed' to be just as good as hot dip though possibly more expensive at around £30 per kg!
That's what I used to repair the poor galvanizing on some of the frames, and I haven't seen any signs of rust on them.

Simon has just fitted a Dormobile roof to a standard 109, and so doesn't have any furniture, spice racks etc. inside....yet.
He does know that Mick, Jabbawocky on here, manufactures Dormobile furniture :tiphat:

Cheers,
Robin.

Probably :cheers:

I'm holding on to the last two for my two Carawagon projects - one has a rusted through frame and the other didn't have one fitted.

As I say, I'm willing to make another batch if there's interest out there :shrug:

Cheers,
Robin.
