I cut a big hole!!! IN MY CAMPER ROOF

A little more tonight. Got the lift mechanisms roughed in, they need a hinge at the bottom to allow articulation due to the top opening in an arc.

Closed. The top has a bit of rear overhang which I wanted, could have used more, to help provide drip protection for the rear door below

Partway up. These were mounted along the sides, so they did not need to tilt in what is now the front/ rear direction. Planning to maybe mount the bottom anchors on hinges

Pretty much up. When I get these under control, and of course lock in the height this will open, I can start fastening the lower part of the tent to the camper. I'm hoping this is the last time, for awhile, the top must be removed.
