Custom TC makers?

With other types of RVs, there is usually some company that can do custom work. For example, Phoenix Cruiser for class "C"s, Sportsmobile for class "B"s, Dune Sport for toy haulers, and so on.

Are there any custom TC builders out there?

The reason I ask is that I'd like to see about some relatively new appliances and items from Europe that are starting to make it to the US, and would save a lot of room in a TC. The Truma Combi furnace/water heater is one. Another would be Seitz windows, which are plastic... but are double-paned and do well for insulation.

NorthStar from Iowa will deviate from the norm for you. Rory is no longer with NorthStar. Rex Willett- President of Northstar told me this winter that He looks to the European supply companies for their compactness and quality. I know he's been using the Dometic double pained windows for sometime now and I suspect they are like the ones you describe. I now they are insulated very very well.
Give Rex a call.

I can go there every time I click on the link. Something's amiss with your browser, I think. Have you tried Google and entered Outfitter Manufacturing?

Yes, a great read from owners that are singing the blues.
I walked away from them just on fit and finish alone.

I had Outfitter install Seitz windows in my Apex 8 during construction in 2004. They are a great window.
Outfitter will do just about anything you want.

Northstar is the way to go for custom. Rex and Rory will make it work and make it right.

As above, Northstar will do most anything, and they do nice work.

Now that Thor owns Camplite, not sure they will still do custom work.

Phoenix pop up truck campers are big into custom jobs.
