Lightweight Overhead Cabinet DXF for Sprinter Camper Vans
Designed specifically for DIY Sprinter camper van conversions, this lightweight overhead cabinet uses an interlocking joint design to securely connect the individual plywood panels together. The design provides good structural strength while keeping the cabinet simple and lightweight.
After assembling the interlocking panels, the joints should be secured with nails to create a solid and durable cabinet structure.
Designed and Tested in a Real Sprinter
This is not simply a cabinet designed on a computer.
As shown in the photos, this cabinet has been CNC cut, assembled, and installed in a real Sprinter van. The design has gone through multiple iterations based on real-world installation and use.
The design takes into consideration details that can easily be overlooked in a theoretical CAD model, including:
The angle between the van wall and ceiling
The available height between the ceiling and the 2nd-row window
The position of the cabinet doors and latch holes
Overall proportions and clearance inside the van
Practical installation and everyday use
When you purchase this DXF, you are not only paying for the CAD geometry. You are also getting the result of the design iterations, measurements, testing, and real-world problems that have already been worked out.
Lightweight 3/8" Plywood
To keep the cabinet lightweight while giving you the flexibility to customize the finish, the design is made for 3/8" unfinished plywood.
You can paint, stain, or otherwise finish the plywood to match your van interior.
Cabinet Dimensions
Length: 720 mm (28.35")
Bottom Width: 377 mm (14.84")
Height: 360 mm (14.17")
What's Included
DXF cutting files for CNC cutting
Designed for a standard 4 × 8 ft plywood sheet
One 4 × 8 ft sheet can cut 2 complete cabinet sets
Hardware Used
The cabinet shown in the photos uses:
12" piano hinges
Marine-style latches,latch hole diameter: 51 mm (2")
2 L brackets to firmly secure the connection between the vertical panel in the middle.
Hardware is not included with the DXF file. The hardware information is provided so you can source similar components for your build.
Please Note
This listing is for digital DXF files only. No physical cabinet, plywood, hardware, or finished parts will be shipped.
If you have any questions about the design, materials, dimensions, or CNC cutting, please feel free to reach out.
### Frequently Asked Questions
**Q: Is this a physical cabinet or a digital file?**
A: This listing is for **digital DXF files only**. No physical cabinet, plywood, or hardware will be shipped.
**Q: What vehicle is this cabinet designed for?**
A: The cabinet is specifically designed for the **Mercedes-Benz Sprinter**, based on a real-world Sprinter camper van conversion. Please compare the dimensions and installation area with your van before cutting.
**Q: What plywood thickness should I use?**
A: The design is intended for **3/8" (approximately 9–10 mm) plywood**. Using a substantially different thickness may affect the fit of the interlocking joints and overall dimensions.
**Q: What size plywood sheet do I need?**
A: The files are designed for a standard **4 × 8 ft plywood sheet**. One sheet can produce **two complete cabinet sets**.
**Q: What CNC machine can I use?**
A: The DXF files are intended for CNC cutting. You can use a CNC router or have the files cut by a local CNC service. You will need to generate the appropriate toolpaths based on your machine, material, and cutting tool.
**Q: Does the DXF include the CNC toolpaths or G-code?**
A: No. The listing includes the **DXF geometry**, not machine-specific G-code. You will need to create the toolpaths according to your CNC machine and setup.
**Q: Are the hinges and latches included?**
A: No. Hardware is not included. The cabinet shown in the photos uses **12" piano hinges and marine-style latches with a 51 mm (2") mounting hole**. This information is provided to help you source similar hardware.
**Q: Do I need to use nails to assemble the cabinet?**
A: Yes. The interlocking joints are designed to fit the individual panels together, and the assembled joints should be secured with nails to provide a solid and durable structure.
**Q: Can I use a different type of plywood?**
A: You can, but the design was developed and tested using 3/8" plywood. Different plywood thicknesses, actual sheet dimensions, or material properties may affect the fit and final result.
**Q: Has this cabinet actually been built?**
A: Yes. The cabinet shown in the photos was **CNC cut, assembled, and installed in a real Sprinter van**. The design has been refined through actual installation and use rather than being created only as a theoretical CAD model.
**Q: Can I modify the DXF file?**
A: Yes. The DXF file can be opened and modified using compatible CAD/CAM software. However, modifying the dimensions or joint geometry may affect the fit and assembly.
**Q: Can you provide a different size or customize the design?**
A: The listing is provided as the tested design shown in the photos. If you need a substantially different size or configuration, please contact us before purchasing to discuss whether customization is possible.
**Q: What if I have a question before cutting?**
A: Please feel free to send us a message. We are happy to help clarify the design, dimensions, material, or installation details before you start cutting.
**Q: Who is this cabinet designed for?**
A: This cabinet is designed for DIY Sprinter camper van builders who want to CNC-cut and build their own lightweight overhead cabinet rather than purchase a finished cabinet.
It is particularly suitable for builders who have access to a CNC router, or who plan to use a local CNC cutting service, and are comfortable with basic woodworking and cabinet assembly.
**Q: Why would this cabinet work for my Sprinter conversion?**
A: The design was developed specifically around the practical constraints of a real Sprinter interior, rather than simply creating a cabinet with standard rectangular dimensions.
The design considers the relationship between the van wall, ceiling, 2nd-row window, cabinet height, door clearance, and latch position. It has also been CNC cut, assembled, and installed in a real Sprinter.
If your goal is to build a lightweight overhead cabinet that fits naturally within these Sprinter interior constraints while still giving you the flexibility to finish the plywood yourself, this design may be a good starting point for your build.
Please review the listed dimensions and photos carefully before purchasing to make sure the design fits your specific van and conversion layout.
