Self-build kits for the Sevel L3H2

Built,
not bought.

Puffin is our family camper, designed in CAD and built by hand on a Peugeot Boxer L3H2. Its two best ideas, a drop-down bunk and a wet-room bathroom, are becoming self-build kits for the Boxer, Relay and Ducato.

  • Sleeps 4
  • Drives 4
  • 24 V off-grid

The kits

Two hard problems, solved in CAD.

Each kit comes as Plans, or as Plans + Parts with everything cut and machined. Either way, you build it.

Swing the screen across and the tray becomes the shower. The vanity stays dry behind it, and water runs off a bamboo duckboard.
