Hi LJ

Oh there will be pics coming I just have to wait 5 weeks before i can take them 

Thanks for the heads up on those mods I will certianly follow that advise me thinks

Reason for the sliding kitchen simply came down on how I wish to pack the Camper. We like to have all the bags lined up on the tent side so easy access can be gained to each bag from under the bed without having to shuffle bags or strech & strain. This way getting the change of clothes out every morning is a more simplistic task.

The flap over the door zip is a simple 4" flap that creates a small weather barrier from direct rain when not using the annex. We do at least one trip a year were most stops are 1 nighters & therefore I dont wish to put up the annex. (would you believe I cant find a single photo online atm) Ill take a pic when I recieve it to show what I mean.

Cheers Gavin

I'm interested in the flap pic (tried finding one online aswell with no luck).  I've only camped once without the awning and it bucketed down.  The zip leaked like a sieve all around it.

Great, just realised, now I have to wait 5 weeks as well!!!

I too discovered the need for a flap over the door when I was wetting mine down the first time.If I could get one retro fitted I would.

G'day Gavin,

Congrats on your purchase, this is where all that time spent researching (and isn't there a lot of it?) pays off.
Welcome to the CT fraternity, and maybe we'll see ya out there one day

Camel sounds good. We finally settled on a barely used bushman. Added LED lightstrips  inside and out, then its maiden trip was to coolah tops after easter. Very happy indeed.
Good luck with yours.

G'day & Welcome Gavin.

I see I'm late to this party, not long until you take delivery but I'll bet every day is a long one still.

[Daawl]

Getting excited now, recieved an email today letting me know that the camper is on track for pick up next week
Still a week late but I am still getting it for the long weekend

Mate,

If this was facebook, I'd 'like' that comment, or if it was twitter, I'd 'retweet' it. But it's not, it's Myswag, so...

Just for you I have put it on FB

Ok frustration levels now up.
Was due to pick up the camper tomorrow as agreed, plans were made, the 5.5hr travel down had just about started and if it wasn't for my curious mind that I called them I find out it hasn't been finished and still in Brisbane :-(

Any remember the add "Not happy Jan"

If it wasn't for the fact that the company is going out of their way to deliver a quality product and be flexible about getting it to me I would be very pissed off about now.

Received a ph call about an hour ago, the QA bloke wasn't happy with a component and wouldn't release the trailer till its fixed (very happy about that) it now means I don't get my Bushmans Plus camper trailer tomorrow :-(( (not happy about that)
To help rectify this they are going to deliver to my door instead. Unfortunately it isn't going to arrive to Sat morning, do there goes my long weekend :-((  (not happy about that)

That's a major PITA it wont be ready for the long weekend mate, but better to wait and get all bugs out first so you don't have to take it back later. Look on the bright side you'll now have all weekend to set it up and take lots of photo's for us  and start planning some mods. Good luck
Cheers Jacko

Lol my plan is to throw everything into it on its arrival and take off, I'll worry about packing it properly later

I did two mods to mine that I think should be standard from production.  One was to put plastic end caps on the chassis draw bar ends to stop water and crap getting in the RHS tubing.
The other was to put a drain tap on the lowest hanging part of the breather pipe (for the water tank).  Water will end up in there, either through over filling the tank or accidentally sloshing water through the breather hole in the neck of the fill opening.  That way I can turn the tap, empty the water to allow the tank to 'breath'.

Gav,
Got the photos of my mod for the breather hose on the water tank: http://myswag.org/forum/index.php?topic=20128.msg374896#msg374896
