DIY Camper Build: PART 4

[@366drew]

Hello Brian I’ve been going back looking at you’re camper build so awesome but do you have a weight on the whole build I’m getting ready to purchase my trailer but not sure if my Toyota Tacoma SR5 would handle it I may have to downsize my trailer thanks in advance for all you do 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

[@Whiteyholmes08]

Hell of a build… Nicely done…

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

Thank you👍🏻

On the sides and roof what was panel you put on exterior side of plywood?

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

The sides/ front/ back and roof are all MDO plywood. Basically same stuff that outdoor billboards are made out of. Completely waterproof material.

[@rafaelzamudio217]

Brian quick question. What type of paint did you use? Was it truly waterproof?

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

It’s Valspar exterior paint. With 3 coats of that and 3 coats of exterior primer we should be good to go👍🏻

[@davidmorgan2815]

I saw the paint was Valspar rugged suede, was the white a primer?

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

Yes, just an exterior primer

[@rodpotts2666]

Looks really good man.

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

Thank you sir!

[@dusitnellison1587]

It looks good I am planning on building one very similar to it. You say it is ten feet long, but I do not see a seem in your sidewall. What size was you plywood for the side walls?Typical plywood 4 x 8 was yours 4 x 10?

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

I used 5x10 sheets

[@charlesfaulkner8653]

Are 5’x10’ sheets a special order?

[@davidmorgan2815]

Bondo on all exterior cracks/seams?

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

Yeah, correct. Bondo and sanded flush all screw holes and seems

I’m building one with I think the same type of trailer it’s a 5 x 8 I like the way you’re doing it I just wondering how much does it weight

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

I honestly do not know the exact amount. I’m estimating around 2500lbs total with trailer. Trailer weight was 997lbs dry
