Welcome to the Forum Breakaway. Looks your a dab hand at demountable building
I'm slowly going through all the last weeks posts, as I've just got back from a trip to the Isle of Mull for Hogmanay. We mixed in some wild camping with parking up on a friends drive
It was dry, cold, wet, windy, snowy, hail. Not necessarily in that order

"this is my latest project, got fed up with smell of fish in the camper,
that locker goes right to the other side as I carry 4 chairs, table & windbreak in it"

No only one side just beyond the door.

How long have you been making these Breakaway?
message Breakaway
"The picture of the one with the frame work is how i have built all of them the wall panels are made out of sheets of 3/8 plywood then cut to shape the you can see i the cut holes were i don't need the strength,
then 3/8 battens are glued and screwed to the ply then the inside is covered with 1/8 ply then insulation is placed in the holes.\
You can see the roof rafters under them is white faced hardboard then more insulation on top.The roof covering is aluminum the side walls is upvc hollow cladding as this has air gaps which is also a good insulator .
hope this gives you some idea how i go about it"
