Any plans to paint?

okay looking forward to your build, when i used pmf on my foam camper we had to put glue on the canvas first then the camper then put them together a little bit at a time to get the rinkes out and a stronger bond. then glue the outside as well, take a look at out camper on RG Teascano

Most of the associated bolts are torqued to 41 Ft/Lbs (I'll be doing one in the morning at 27 degrees...)

thanks string method looks like it works great might try it on my four wheeler

Do you leave the 8 way treatment in the boiler through next heating season or do you drain it when you’re holding it up for summer? Looks great!

Saaaweeeeet!

Saaaweeeeet!

Good ideas

Well humans we had a good run...

Has anyone seen these before?

So you did the entire hole with hydraulic cement?

Thanks alot man iam about to dig into this same project on my 05 artic cat trv it's pulling hard to the left im hoping this is all that's wrong

Why not use titebond 3 in case the paint fails due to damage or lack of maintenance?

this looks sick

I have also heard you can sand and fill the final result to get it super smooth but I havent tried it yet. Maybe in the future I will. If the poor mans fiberglass ever fails, I will just peel it and use the camper as a mold to make fiberglass shell.

Also...a current latex "clear" coat experiment...a transparent base...it is the base they use for mixing colors that cant be made easily with opaque white base. I havent done it yet, but gonna try it in the spring. I bought it but havent got around to it yet. It will be a bit foggy compared to typical clear coat. I also did several tests of aerosol solvent sprays on top of the latex+canvas with great results. Rubberized undercoating works great on top of it. I did the entire underside of my camper in thicker foam between floor joists, and covered it all in the poor mans fiberglass, and then coated it all in the rubberized undercoating. It worked awesome.

The trick to it is never stretching the canvas or it will want to pull out of creases and whatnot. I am on about to have my ebike camper.go through it's second Canadian winter. No damage after nearly 2 years of being outdoors in the sun, rain, snow, etc. I did buy a nice golf cart cover for it but it is a bit loose and I don't trust it in the wind. Gonna modify it for a better fit but it will probably be outside all winter without the cover again. I do go and regularly sweep the snow off of it. But I figure with a repaint every two years, it should last quite awhile.

Made a long planter for my kitchen window like this, as a test for a boat. PMF over foam with a latex paint top coat. Gallons of water for going on a year being dumped in to it an no leaks. Bu being just foam, cloth, glue an paint, it sags in the middle of the 5 foot span do I had to put a center brace. With wood backing yours, it should be solid an last for years.

I have never heard of this, seems like fun! I suppose you could use any waterproof applicant on that fabric. Good idea to get some extra product to stick and the one sheet make a good end result for sure.

Looks more like waferboard...

I'm considering doing something similar to this myself. Great work so far. Are you keeping track of the cost of materials for when the build is finished? It would be cool to see the total savings compared to purchasing a pre-owned camper of similar size. Keep up the good work!

All that from leaky rod holes?! Jesus!

Awesome series, I’m excited to see the full progression

Hmmm? What made you go with osb instead of plywood? I guess you're not worried about weight or a smooth surface on the exterior?

How many psi is your power washer ?

As another mentioned only use Chief SSF and it is a dark green, I had mine rebuilt in the states for $550 four years ago and it came with a three-year warranty from TOP HYDRUALICS, it died after four years, and I called them, and they said for $200 they would rebuild it since I had it rebuilt before and they would warranty it for 10 years!!! they use a better seal and brushes. Highly recommended - good people, week and a half turn around. I expect it will last 11 years ha ha ha ha - if you know anyone in the USA or want to ship overseas. They fix all kinds of roof motors.

She’s adorable

Hey Dean! This brings back memories of our old house. We had a 172K BTU Crown boiler for many years.

Looks terrible but good bonding time

tHIS IS PRETTY COOL. THANNKS FOR SHOWING. GAVE ME T ONS OF IDEAS.

You should be tying off the handlebars perfectly straight before you do the alignment. (Use ratchet straps)

did anyone notice the 10 inch solid metal safe door at 4:05?! are you a kidnapper or do you literally save gold under the mattress? maybe prepared for a russian nuclear holocaust??

Space Ghostttttty

Now this is epic

Love spresding disinformation 👍🏼

You havent seen a fetus then💀

Not a fetus.

NOT chicken fetus! total lie. it is membrane to keep yolk suspended so it does not break.

Lmao I always removed that and thoight it was the umbilical cord 😂

That’s not fetus. That is the sperm of the rooster

I mean A) not a fetus B) you don't have to remove it because it doesn't change the flavor or the texture of anything in the egg So you're essentially grossing yourself out and making more work completely pointlessly and then spreading that lie and that ick that doesn't need to exist to other people who are stupid enough to not understand that the chicken eggs that you eat are not fertilized. Correct your mindset and save yourself a lot of time and anxiety. I'd rather people get anxious over green potatoes, which can actually pose a risk of tummy troubles or worse ( I learned that not everybody knows that even though I thought it was common knowledge) so I'll spread that knowledge that is truthful and hope anybody made it this far in my comment to learn it

not me thinking it was a male chickens “sauce”

I thought it was the brain

but why? i thought the point of eating an egg was to eat a chicken fetus

Ignorance is grand

This makes no sense my guy

Did you fall asleep and those are your shoes?

The things you google because of silly videos: The solid white part of an egg is called the chalaza. It's essentially condensed egg whites or membranes that, while the egg is intact, hold the yolk in the center. They are completely safe to eat and when cooking will just disappear into the rest of the egg. But there's also no harm in removing them if you prefer.
