Hey Andy - Sweet build so far. Nice choice in color for the cabinets. I'm noodling on how to properly anchor my bed rails right now. I need them to be at least 40" off the floor and the thought of just bolting the ends to the d and c pillar make me nervous about the gap where the windows would go. I see that you backed your furring strips with some metal when crossing the window space. What material did you use there?

I get my panels from a local supplier in the Portland area.
That is 3” flat bar steel installed with plus nuts. The L track is also installed with plus nuts on the flat bar. When working around windows it gets a bit tricky, you could always utilize some of the van builders products out there. There are some good options out there.

I plan on building mine out in a similar fashion. U-shaped dinette with overhead cabinets. Could you elaborate on the wood materials you used to build the dinette? Also, do you know the weight max on the Lagun table mount for the middle of the bed?
Cheers
