You should put some nice clean black wrap on the fridge and cover the kings logo

[@Haslop]

Looking bloody good mate, one of the best trailer build series on KZbin, but it killed me when you cut straight on top of your nice epoxy floor

[@tyronelee-burgess7756]

You are the reason why I'm about to start building my own camper/toy hauler. You make these builds in such away, It looks fun and at the end of it you have accomplished it yourself. Ps. I can't wait to see this thing behind your rig👌💚

[@RoamLyfe]

That’s a great comment to read mate thank you! Appreciate you 🔥🔥

[@willcosson2198]

Looks sooooo sick, just from the thumb nail I am flabbergasted

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks mate!!

[@MarkValascun]

Bit of an editing tip. When you do ‘hand to lens’ transitions you can apply a black layer fading in quite quickly and then fully cutting off on transition if your hand isn’t completely over the camera

[@benomcelligott66]

Lovin the trailer brother can’t wait to see it behind the patrol in the tracks 🤟🏽

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks mate!!

[@jeremychambers5681]

1:49 this is the reason why we love your channel, so realatable for us... dont get me wrong tho, you have a shed i would abs die for... your channel really inspires me to try things i thought i could never do, thanks legend.

[@xDrDeath78x]

Nicely done mate. You should be pleased, looks mint

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks legend!

[@Ess_Chalk]

It's such an awesome transformation! It's simple, robust and rugged but it's not overbuilt and still has everything you need. Well done! I found the cigarette lighter socket was still useful for fans and string lights so I replaced the Merit socket on my trailer's panel with a Quick charge 4 USB A and USB C, which was incredibly useful so we can keep the phones with us in the tent and then fully charge them in the time it takes us to make breakfast. Don't forget to leave a space so you can leave things plugged into the USB ports while the hatch is closed.

[@andrewannetts5267]

Looks great, I now want to do this to my old camper trailer 👍. I think the gap above the drawer is there so you or kids don’t jam fingers when closing.

[@RoamLyfe]

Hahaha I guess I’ll only do that once 😅😅

[@glance5952]

Looking good mate, use the handle from the drawers on the front of your left wing maybe?

[@mickfbr]

looks f#&n epic bro! super tidy finish, just about ready to roll for the mission's, looking forward to the camp content to come...

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks mick! So keen to get it out!!

[@regularaussiemedia1426]

This is really coming together. Loving this trailer build content, keen for the next one. 🍻

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks mate!!

[@nathan100tz]

1:01 HAHAHA! Top work! Trailer looks mint, sorry about your toe. 🤣

[@juzstorm]

An LED light hidden inside the lid would help at night time as well, make it easier to see into the fridge etc.. I love this trailer, looks brilliant... will have something (won't be as good) one day like that!

[@RoamLyfe]

For sure! Thanks for the comment!!

[@SchysCraftCo.]

Wow that's awesome. It's looking really good. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God bless.

[@michaelreis7010]

Yeah she looks good!

[@SHOCKcustoms]

Minticle freshness in this vid gangster! Minor tip, add a coupler Anderson plugs to your switch panel side. 1 wired to the bcdc, 1 fused and wired direct to the battery. Ando's are invaluable! Plug in the compressor, solar, travel buddy etc. Love ya work minty man

[@RoamLyfe]

Yeah actually not a bad idea mate, I’ll get that done!! Cheers legend!

[@JoeHart6]

looks so mint 👌 this series has made me want to make one myself in the future 🙏

[@RoamLyfe]

Yeww, it’s good fun!

[@andrewjansz8449]

Well Done mate, your hard work is paying off, it's come up a treat 👍

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks mate!!

[@jakemckay5626]

I would recommend putting a water oulet on the left side beside the table. Simple 20L gravity feed to wash dishers and hands would be supper handy.

[@reecevidler5798]

Looks so good man wishing I had one👌

[@scottheads]

Great job, just about to upgrade my soft floor trailer to a rooftop tent instead, you have given me some great ideas. Great to see someone "in touch with the common man" 🙂👍

[@rosshannemann7772]

Gap under fridge and draw will a aid battery & electrics cooling during charge

[@dennisfreebairn8754]

That looks tidy mate!!!!

[@jessetink3753]

Looking so good mate 👍🏽.

[@RoamLyfe]

Cheers Jesse!

[@sf017s4]

Looks great mate. Maybe a strip of taped rubber stuck down just to sort your OCD out.

[@mickwhitehouse7537]

Awesome stuff mate

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks mick!!

[@skainzy96]

Get a tank made to fit the LHS of the draw. Wire in a water pump to a hose. Cut a hole in your drop down bench and put a removable stainless sink in it for dishes. Then cut a chopping board to sit inside the sink to have a flat bench again. You gain a sink for washing up, and can still use the bench normally too.

[@jymonfernandez8087]

Done a bloody good job mate. Can’t wait to do one myself!

[@henareedwards4820]

Mean setup bro!!! Looks good bro!!!

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks legend!!

[@222kadijah]

Looks so good!!! You should make a water tank and out let with the spare space you have next to the draw!

[@WEEKENDER4X4]

Absolutely sick!! Looks mint mate. 👌 well done

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks legend!!

[@kyegerber9063]

I love it so much it looks awesome 😎

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks legend!

[@kyegerber9063]

Can’t wait to see it in tow with the gq

[@El_Tigre562]

The closer yours gets to completion, the more my sketches and schematics for my own keep ringing in my head to finally start building one. I've been hard-pressed to find a suitable base trailer here in Southern California to get started though so living vicariously through yours!

[@MJMAC]

Looks mint. You should knock up a water tank and throw it down the side along with a 12v pump. I got a pump off ebay for around $15 and have it exiting the side of my draws. So handy for doing dishes or washing sand off on the beach

[@RoamLyfe]

How has the pump been for reliability?

[@MJMAC]

@@RoamLyfe had it in the back of my tub for around 7 years and it's been fine. I just have it wired up to a switch panel and have a manual ball valve so i can turn it off incase it does fail. Then i have a garden hose fitting at the end of my drawers that i connect a 2m long hose with one of those multi spray garden hose nozzles. Works a treat

[@CMReid]

looks mint mate. Good solid set up. Make sure you get that 2nd leg on it before you get it rocking 👍🏼

[@RoamLyfe]

Haha thanks mate!! I’ll be sure to grab one!!

[@dizzyborden3618]

Truly inspirational

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks mate!

[@zac2149]

Nice work mate starting to look the goods. Rip floor with the carpet cuts haha

[@RoamLyfe]

I know haha I have to keep telling myself “it’s only a workshop”

[@lachlandunn3974]

Looks absolutely mint, can't wait to see it done and out on the tracks Also, "if you buy a landcruiser"..... You hinting at something there?

[@RoamLyfe]

Haha, could be 😅! Always had in my head that I’d end up with a 105 series

[@lamo4723]

You’ve inspired me to do up my old trailer. Good vid. Cheers

[@Woz12397]

Looks soo good mate great work

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks warren!!

[@Woz12397]

@@RoamLyfe hey mate just wondering when u reinstall the frame for the rooftop. R u going to make something to utilise the space under the tent to store things?

[@chrisreaper5620]

That little spot you have left would be good for a little water outlet/hose, just cause its beside the table, so easy access for cooking and washing hands. Put a water tank under the trailer so it's out of the way, a little air compressor to build pressure in the water tank and also for tyres 👌 The trailers lookin absolutely awesome so far bud.

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks for the ideas mate, I appreciate it!!

[@pewpew2400]

Looks good, coupla suggestions - fill the gaps at the back/fridge drawer area to stop dust ingress and maybe just a loop of rope for the panel over the 12v as a handle? - just idea's - no big deal :)

[@Alex-sg3pf]

Hey mate, just an idea for that dead space that you have on the left. Use some velcro and put it on a lighter/sunscreen anything you need to get to quickly and in a convenient spot. Love the trailer, looks mint!

[@BMW2002M10]

Awesome job, very impressive. One suggestion would be to fit some rubber seals to keep the dust, dirt, and water out. Top work eitherway very jealous!

[@RoamLyfe]

Yeah mate I got some rubber ready to go into it!! Cheers for the comment!

[@brucerowland9989]

Turned out mint, bit slow on watching this episode but have seen the end result 👌👌 has given me some ideas on how to organise and set up my own trailer when that time comes 😎

[@fraser3788]

This looks sooo, mint. Love the work 👌

[@RoamLyfe]

Yeww cheers mate!!

[@pinealism]

Get some good rubber seals for the lid and especially the tail gate

[@jimclarke2349]

Looks bloody great mate. You have given me a lot to think about. Keep up the good work

[@waynehill9198]

Looks fantastic, I pulled my trailer out of my shipping container yesterday to make a start, looking forward to the next video 😁

[@magicworldbyjorg]

..cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you…

[@antontekare5202]

Man this is looking mint you have out done yourself with this can't wait for next update

[@andrewstanham2702]

Trailer is looking mint.. idea for that space, don't know if it's been said but get a custom stainless water tank to fit down the side.. 👌👌

[@aadrick3174]

Has to rain every bloody video ay haha. You get so much rain but down here in Toowoomba, it looks like it's going to rain but never does. Love the channel and also good ingenuity using the packaging as a stensil mate!

[@RoamLyfe]

It’s so annoying haha, although I do bloody love the rain!! The packaging definitely made life easy!!

[@michaelgordon9924]

At the first the sound of the Stanley knife on the level was satisfying, then the more you did it, the more unbearable it got 🤣 great vid mate. Trailer looks mint

[@RoamLyfe]

Rip to my nice floor haha!

[@mymurrie1101]

It’s all coming together now! Loving how it turned out 🔥

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks legend!

[@tking2907]

Could use that spare space to put a long draw for some more storage.

[@Boonsenberry]

Fuarrrrk bro it looks that good 🔥🔥

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks mate!!

[@connorgamble1171]

Find/make a water tank and add a tap (pump optional) to the spare wing panel.

[@glenfdoss]

Corded tools always the best. Not convenient at times. So what do you do. Buy both cord and cordless.

[@inspire4x4jacko67]

Shpuld have left the draw slide working as its own. Cause ya can never have enough bench space bro. For someone that dont like kings stuff you seem to have a fair bit in that trailer.

[@RoamLyfe]

That would actually be great but it was never a slide!! Was a fixed top!

[@lbrereton526]

Hey mate for your fold down bench - go to a local stainless work shop and grab a offcut of stainless steel and glue that on top of the ply. I did this to my tailgate on my DMAX and works a treat!

[@RoamLyfe]

Great idea mate thank you!!

[@2Rashma2]

Have you used the fridge yet, think it would hold a good weekend away worth of food? Looks so good hey, epic stuff

[@Papisadventures]

Drop a water pump in the left pocket with quick connects on the face for feed from underbelly tank and outlet for kitchen.🤟

[@RoamLyfe]

Bloody great idea mate thank you!!

[@TG-zd9de]

Looks pro. Can't wait to see the tent go on!

[@RoamLyfe]

I’m so keen to have it finished!

[@marcuslewis4053]

Solid videos man. Really enjoy watching the journey

[@wannysth3152]

Epic!! She is looking so mint mate!!

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks mate!!

[@romancant8789]

Bloody mint, content is consistently great

[@skitzy8189]

Nice work

[@RoamLyfe]

🤘 cheers mate!!

[@damienfrizzell9394]

nice would be cleaner looing if u folded carpet over the little sliver piece above the draw instead of carpeting it seperate

[@bigstickerperformance6670]

Looking good man 👍 when you finish off the 12v, change those countersunk screws to button head, it's a pet hate of mine. Keep up the good work 😁

[@MiniLuv-1984]

Perhaps recess the electrical panel so you can leave things plugged in and be able to close the tail gate? Its looking great!

[@Focusphotoau]

Super clean brother. Well done! You've got me enthused to drag my trailer out now and give it a revamp!!

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks mate!! That’s great, get into it!! 🤘🤘

[@jackcrombie7249]

At first I did not get building trailer with a single cab but now seeing it finished I get

Inspiring series mate. Well done.

[@RoamLyfe]

Yeww thanks Brett!!

[@caineturner5203]

You can use one of the cig plugs for a 12v battery charger for your ryobi gear so if your battery’s go flat you can charge them up out bush 👍🏻

[@RoamLyfe]

That’s a great idea thank you!!

[@brentmcd12]

well done! looks good !

[@DanCabban]

once again, outstanding job dude!

[@JFWGarage]

Looks great mate 👌🏼

[@petethescalemodeller6130]

Bloody top job mate , looks mint , well done buddy tc :)

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks legend!!

[@Keithygeorge]

Hey mate, loving this build. As a No5 owner myself, just wondering if you've done a test tow? These things are known for swaying so violently behind the tow vehicle, you MUST HAVE BALL WEIGHT on these trailers. At least 60/40 weight in front of axle. Hopefully what ever goes in that tool box is heavier than the full draw and fridge.

[@RoamLyfe]

Hey mate! Thanks for the comment!! I will be weighing the trailer at the end to work out me weights! Currently it has only -1kg on the draw bar, if it needs it I will weld some weights underneath! I still have some ideas for the front tho so I’ll see what happens!!

[@trevorjohnson9286]

Great jo

[@DKHEPG]

Looks sick bro!! Where did you get the roll of carpet from? Bunnings?

[@RoamLyfe]

Yeah mate from Bunnings, it was a bit more expensive for the thicker one but I rate it hey!

[@DKHEPG]

@@RoamLyfe yeah definitely keen to try and do a custom setup myself pretty much like yours. Hopefully it’s way cheaper and I don’t struggle too much with it haha 👌🏽👌🏽

[@Liamd2001]

Epic build! just a thought, have you considered putting some rubber seals on the tailgate to help prevent ingress of water in river crossings? Won’t stop 100% of water but might just help reduce the amount of times everything gets soaked. Just an idea 🤙

[@daztaylor3216]

Instead of screwing the tops down maybe use Velcro all around the edges and centre,easier to lift up to get at the battery or fridge,if something gets caught in the drawer easier to just lift the lid ,just a thought

[@abrgrg]

Great Work - this looks really good - Well done!! - pretty much what i have in mind for my trailer - I notice that like my trailer your trailers top door has quite a bit of available space...(not sure if you have a plan for that space yet?) but as an idea what i am doing with mine is 6mm ply board cut to the size of the inside of the door. supported by some aluminium tubing on hinges on one end and then with a lock or 2 holding on the other end. That's where i will storing light items like fishing rods and tackle as an example... Good work so far the trailer is really coming together now!! Lots of fun

[@RoamLyfe]

Thanks mate!! That is a great idea for yours! I made room in the lid only for the fact that I don’t have much height left after putting the floor in, so the added space in the lid is just for height in the tub it self! I can fit camp chairs etc in there now!

[@abrgrg]

@@RoamLyfe Ah ok cool. Keep up the good work. Loving this build!!!

[@CreativeContentAustraila]

Hi mate, trailers looking awesome! Wondering have you had and dramas with the fridge performance being enclosed like that? (Apologies if you’ve answered it already) Cheers

[@coll0070]

Come back and give us another review in 8 month after some decent track time. 👍🏼

[@christophergibbs5298]

On the left side there how would you go putting like a 50L water bladder down the side so then you have water.

[@glenfdoss]

At first I was thinking new carpeting. Don’t wreck it brand new. It’s a game changer. I was wrong.

[@nicholaslipsanos9614]

Looks fucking mint man!!!

[@RoamLyfe]

Cheers mate!!

[@MrCarson66]

Nice work ! Where can I get a base trailer to do same?

[@anthonybilotta6098]

great work man! Just a question about the fridge cos i plan on getting the same one for my set up. is it good to have inside of a box, in terms of ventilation? will it overheat?

[@juliahummel4485]

also wondering this
