This post is all about windows. Not Linux or OS, but windows!
I've made all the windows for the caravan. They're not quite finished completely yet, but they're basically done. I still need to design and make some sort of mechanism to hold them open at various different openness's. But I think that is something that can come later, for now I'm just going to call them done.

This is the parts of one of the two "bedroom" windows. It's all made from reclaimed materials.
And this is it all put together. The protective film is still on the sheet of perspex.
And this is it in place before the hole was cut in the side of the caravan.
This is the one window in place with its top whether shield.
This is the kitchen window and frame. Again still with most of the protective film in place.
The opening for the kitchen window, with the top whether shield above it.
And the kitchen window in place, with most of the protective film still on the perspex. Unfortunately the protective film has been very difficult to remove, it must've been on there for a long time and it won't peel off easily.
This is one of the latches on the kitchen window. All the window latches are designed and 3D printed by me. And I have to say, they work rather well.
This is the view of the front window cover from the inside. It needed some way of clipping it down for driving. So I made this 'R' clip (or as my partner calls it, a roller-coaster clip) and a couple of aluminium brackets to hold it down.
Here's the latch for the front window. It's designed in the same style as the others but it works in it's own unique way.
And here's a different angle of the same latch but in the open position.
I hope you enjoyed this little post on the windows of my caravan, hopefully I'll be back with another update soon.
