    For the front of the toilet, you could have created a groove on the inside of each of the batons (or space out two smaller batons) so the panel could have just slid down into place. You could then cut / drill a small hole in the top of the panel to get a finger in to act as a handle for easy removal.

    Loving the new video you can tell everything is coming together and starting to look neat and tidy little suggestion maybe get a hard duty mat cut it and place it under the toilet with maybe a small handle on it attached so you drag the toilet out making it easy for you to take out without dragging it out on your new flooring 👍🏻

      @@LoveSundays Interesting. It is obviously personal preference, but with your high level of skill (and enthusiasm!), I would be more ambitious than 'bucket under the bed'. I have a VW T4 campervan which would definitely benefit from an enclosed toilet unit. I take your point about campsites, but the great thng about campervans is the independence they give. Nowadays I only use my van once a year for a festival. If I used it more, I would go for a shower/toilet unit and regard that as a good use of space. After all, what else is the space really needed for, except somewhere to eat and sleep, though perhaps not at the same time... Keep the reports coming!
