Been awhile without an update, but progress has been made. Cabinets are almost done and upholstery will be picked up tomorrow.
Who made this for you !? I’m gonna need an interior for my Troopy. I’m looking at moving into it full time and want practical and light

My buddy Dana who is Portland did it for me. We went back and forth on the design quite a bit, but I'm happy with the way it turned out. Can't wait to install it all. You can see supports for the downstairs bed both inserted and removed. There is a bench that will sit opposite of this and will fold over. Front Runner chairs fit perfectly under the fridge.

Who did you end up going with on the upholstery? This is looking really nice!

Dana found somebody locally out in Gresham. He also found a spot that glued us a 3 part foam combo that should be firm enough to sleep on, but keeps the stack height of the whole thing down. Plus it's all getting wrapped in cordura which should have lots of life.

Finished installing everything yesterday and took it through the scale. Everything including fridge under 230 lbs. Had an extra fridge and a bunch of gear in there so will need to get an actual weight once I can unpack. Overall extremely happy with how things came out.
Wow! What a beautifully clean setup!
That interior is a work of art. Once you've got the roof on, it'll be near perfect.
Mine is switched to yours. I have the fridge on the drivers side at the back door (short bench instead). I guess I can live outside of mine more of the year here in the Middle East than you guys.

I've owed an update to this thread for a while. Biggest change is that now the Alu-Cab Hercules is installed, functional, and getting used. Did first big trip out to Tahoe with a bunch of Syncros. We weren't on the trail for 15 minutes before we needed sockets and a multimeter. I certainly don't miss my Westy a bit.
Had some pockets made for the back of the cabinets was a simple, but killer improvement. Nice to not have to climb in and out for every little thing.
Finally, just got my OneStone Armrests. Installation was a huge pain..LOL. First impressions is they look great and super comfy.

UPS Man dropped off some goodies today. I will have excellent lumbar support when escaping the zombie hordes.
The temptation for Sheelmann's is strong, but I'm concerned with how hard they are. The one's I've sat in here do seem very stiff.
