My take on DIY campers is , if you get in it, it doesn't leak, you can stay warm and dry and get a good night's sleep and it looks good on the outside, you're good to go. Looking good. Be proud.

Plus it has a higher resale value and the damn things don't leak like camper trailers you got to constantly seal them damn things up it's stupid how they build them you buy a enclosed trailer you make it what you want it if you have the skill and you can do multiple things with it enclosed trailer that's what I love about that idea I can't wait to get one

Love the conversion, on the subject of a table could you not fold the mattress up against the wall and build a seating area under the bed with a couple of drop ins over the seats for the mattress to sit on. This would still give you space for the fridge and give you extra storage behind these items as well. Keep up the good work

You want a regulator at the tanks, if the pressure going to the internal appliance regulators is too high they will lock up. Having dual stage regulators won't over regulate it, the appliance regs just step the pressure down further to what it needs to operate. Also if you have a propane leak, you want it to be lower pressure leak rather than a high pressure leak.

You should turn the bed into a murphy bed so you can make the frame it sits on now into a couch/storage area. In the corner across from the door put in a counter top with the fridge under it and set up a rack on the deck side under the one you already have for an outdoor kitchen area with like a grill and sink that can be put away so you can water to the kitchen for cooking and washing hands and stuff. Also set up an outdoor shower off the the driver side of the deck with some type of rack to hang a curtain. You would still have plenty of room for cabinets around the top. Just some ideas I had while watching but you have a great design so far just a few tweaks would make this thing amazing

So go ahead, dismiss me, use whatever descriptive insult you want, something that will stave off your bruised ego and satisfy your overdeveloped self-consciousness.

It was by far the best route as I wanted to use the bed liner for the external for its durability, and obviously didn't have a choice in color.

Plus with the amount of insulation I have on it I think it will be able to offset any heat gain from the color I get in the summertime.

That's interesting, but now you don't have as much room to take the wheels off if you end up getting big tires that stick out too far.

If I were to use my pickup truck I probably would have just went with the truck bed camper to not waste room on the trailer. I guess if your situation is that you're towing with an SUV or something this is a pretty good idea

Looks Great!! Even the most simple projects can be very time-consuming because of all the planning and you have to think quite a ways down the road kind of like your steps being wider than your door. My buddy used to say if you think a project will take two weeks you need to double that and then go to the next unit of measure so a two-week project will actually take four months. Lots of truth to that statement!!

A suggestion for your concideration, make a fold down table/cat walk that is level with the bottom of your door. As a table it could be used outside for whatever you wish. As a cat walk you could go from inside to the bed of your trailer without having to step down to the ground. My thoughts on the fold down is to make it like the seats from an old military duece and a half, with several hinged legs to match up with pockets on the FRAME of your trailer.(At an angle)

I thought it was a very cool and thought out video. Thank you so much. Idea for you we're the hood of your truck or your 4x4 when sitting on the deck you could probably do a build out from your sleep area that's connected to your sleep area over the top of that 4x4 when it's parked up on there Yes that will cut down a little bit of your deck but it'll give you more room for storage and other things or you can jack up the height of that trailer 12 in or more to accommodate for like a stone go type situation just some ideas I'm sure you've probably thought it out of all that stuff. Or getting even longer trailer. I love what you got so far that's a pretty innovative idea and probably saved you a ton of money on a car hauler cuz car haulers are not cheap My god they want way too much money those toy haulers are way overpriced

Really cool build and it looks like your attention to detail is very high. One thing I would suggest is changing your position on regulated vs non on running the propane in. I understand the desire to have each accessory run on it's own regulator. But in reality, they probably all operate at close to the same pressure anyway. Most propane accessories have an operating pressure of only about 1/3 PSI. While the tank itself, on a warm day, could exceed 150PSI of head pressure. As you set it up, it will work but if you put the regulator outside and run the accessories with their regulators removed, it will also work, as long as they have the right operating pressure given to them. But if you have a leak on a hose inside the cabin, at tank head pressure it will leak propane almost 500 times faster than at operating pressure.

Love the build! You asked for recommendations and I have 2. You told you use a buddy-heater and that's fine, but I'm not a big fan of it. Better look into a diesel, or even better a propane heater. They don't poisen you with carbon monoxide and they don't create moisture inside. If you choose to use the buddyheater PLEASE buy a carbon monoxide and smoke detector. Just to be safe.
@mikel9567
@mikel9567 3 жыл бұрын
You're an idiot. Carbon Monoxide is created from combustion. Any combustion heater is going to create Carbon Monoxide, be it Diesel or Propane fired. The Mr Buddy he has is propane fired by the way. You can certainly use them inside. CO detector mounted low, window cracked for ventilation and you will be fine. They are designed for interior use and have O2 sensors in them. Moisture is created from the heat difference. Not from the heaters themselves. This is called condensation. Good insulation and proper ventilation will prevent condensation. The heater type has nothing to do with it. Educate yourself before you post.

Looks great, my only suggestion is try to find things used. I’ve been traveling and full time rving for 4 years and RVs are like boats, parts cost twice as much. If you are lucky, you might find an rv salvage place that sells used items. For bug out situations, I highly recommend a composting toilet. For can build them for $15

Could he also use a second set of (good used) RV window frames, cut to fit the gaps in his current windows? It would give a factory type finish but not sure how fiddly that would be to cut and install. Probably totally not worth it financially either, if he has to buy them new. 🤷‍♂️ Just spit-balling.

The gene mount would benefit from a rubber spacer between the bolt head (or nut) next to the gene mount (i.e. both sides of the mount). That will isolate the vibration better, though with a Honda you should be OK as they run smoothly.

Too much tongue weight is never a problem as long as it doesn't put you over payload or hitch limits. All factory built toyhaulers have a bunch of hitch weight bias otherwise they would go the bad way when loaded which is too little hitch weight.

Wonder what it is without anything behind the trailer axles? That camper looks like it's about halfway to the hitch from the axles-- that's 50% of the weight of it + the empty tongue weight + around 120 pounds on the tongue if those propane tanks are full. I'm guessing 1300-1500 pounds..

Whether he used it, I cannot see in the video. But the regulator drops the water column and the pressure. The appliances use their own regulator to fine tune the lp gas for it's specific needs. I'm a licensed lp installer and work at a lp storage terminal that stores 40 million gallons.
