DIY teardrop trailer camper caravan build

DIY teardrop trailer camper caravan build

[@maybe5883]

DIY my backside, access to tools and space that most of us do not have. Click bait. But really nice work by this builder and his crew.

[@ColinsMarine]

I’m sorry, DIY doesn’t mean a shop full of world class tools and equipment. The results are stunning, but not amateur by any means. Well done on the beautiful Trailer

[@andrewjones-productions]

It is of such a high quality that throughout the video you had me confused as to whether this was a build by an individual or a teardrop factory in Romania. Reading your replies in the comments etc, made it clear that this is one incredible achievement by an individual with some help from his friends! You mention in reply to someone that you thought it would take 3 weeks, but that it actually took 9 weeks. That is still a very short timeframe for something that is so well done!! Congratulations and may your teardrop bring you many happy journeys and memories to cherish!

[@christiangreen612]

Thankyou very much for your kind words Andrew

[@FakePersonna]

Perfect! This is how every RV should be built! CNC cut plywood (not particle boards), glue and screw (no staples), pre-drilled holes, precision and detailed assembly. Thank you for showing us how a quality RV should be built. Amazing finished product, keep up the quality and the good work.

[@flynnstone3580]

Particle board is full of formaldehyde, bad stuff. It's in carpet and padding too. They won't tell you they have formaldehyde free carpet, they have it but you have to request it.

[@ianbray8687]

Absolutely brilliant! Finished product looks so simple, yet the video shows how much was involved. Attention to detail is 1st class, well done sir!!

[@christiangreen612]

thanks ian, yeah its way more work than you would think. i initially thought it would take me 3 weeks, ended up taking 9 weeks

[@mmolokikwadiba4777]

Very nice, 9 weeks? How many hours a day?

[@CaptZenPetabyte]

Perfect. So well done. Setting the bar very high. Thanks for showing us all.

[@jefffoggymountainworkshop5021]

Access to high end precision tooling make a huge difference. Not sure I would call this a typical DIY, but awesome results.

[@christiangreen612]

thanks Jeff. i outsourced the cnc machining, but having a good design/cad model, and utilising proper tooling definitely makes the final product better

[@kimhollenbeck6954]

Christian,you and your friends did an awesome job of building the teardrop camper

[@Bobsnotyouruncle]

Truly awesome build & love the music.

[@codysp]

You do great work, that shop is an absolute dream!

[@Hadassah-KaquoliMReno]

I really like your design style for the kitchen area! You did an amazing job! Thank you!

[@christiangreen612]

cheers bro!

[@GrantOakes]

Excellent build! I love the use of CNC cut panels. Only thing I think would add to the quality and wouldn't cost hardly anything additional is the use of XPS Pink foam. Has a higher R value and is all around a better material.

[@Tom-dd1we]

Love the music and it's amazing how mutch detail goes into a teardrop I'm wanting to start one soon I have not decided the exact design yet

[@FTroop37F]

Beautiful job! The construction and fit and finish are amazing. That's a nice shop you have.

[@shirleyskinner4321]

Awesome build, and the jazz music was nice as well!

[@guerradan1958]

I agree that this is a factory build. However, I love how everything is precut and fits into place! Love the design and the complexity. This trailer will last a very long long time. Thanks I’ve taken away a lot of ideas in the construction of a teardrop trailer.

[@waynegage2043]

I could buy a teardrop trailer for the price of the CNC machine. DIY is a misnomer. This is a factory build.

[@madhatman9166]

Yeah even renting one with a 48 by 24 cutting area is 1500 a mo.

[@1FishinAddict]

He’s just showing how far ahead of the game he is vs avg joe in garage and handsaw. It’s good to have every modern tools at his disposal.

[@rollins2922]

You could cut with guides/those glue ups not necessary.

[@stefana1446]

I'm just amazed of how bad he is at doing any actual skilled work. He could have used the panels to draw over the insulating board and make a nice fit, but he decided to chop the corners like a DIY.

[@amandahugankiss4110]

he did this himself. his cutter is nice and all, butt he still did all this himself. folk see cnc and whine. from their couch or toilet. a thing they will never make. hand them all the cnc in the world and they woll never give you a trailer. don't sweat the hate. thing looks nice man.

[@johnw65]

Great educational video for those of us who're new to all this! I'm converting a 4x6 aluminum cargo trailer and construction methods are totally different. But, I plan to add a "Ramp Room" which will use many of your techniques. Thanks again!

[@christiangreen612]

no probs, good luck with your build!

[@danielmusat597]

Superb! Nu știam că există și pe meleagurile noastre pasionați de construit rulote. Bine de știut! Foarte frumos a ieșit.

Dude, thats a super cool build. Kudos to you

[@BDL090754]

Even though this is a gopro fast vid, It is still fantastic to see the procedure of the building process, Thanks very much.

Génial. Bravo pour ce beau travail. Bonnes salutations depuis la Suisse. BNM

[@Racerddadd]

Great trailer vid. Not sure if DIY is the proper term. CNC. Couple different welders. Professional build. DIY should be a Dremel, a dull jigsaw, and bricks adding weight to glued sides. My opinion of course.

[@gumundurgumundsson113]

Very well done, congratulations

[@catuta78]

Salutare. Initial am vrut si eu sa fac o conversie dintr-o dubita. Apoi m-am razgandit cand am vazut preturile materialelor. Acum am in plan sa fac ceva asemanator cu proiectul dumneavoastra. Remorcuta deja o am. Dar nu asta este ideea. Ceea ce de fapt vreau eu sa spun prin acest mesaj este ca totul este facut corespunzator, la superlativ as putea spune: video, muzica de pe backgound, scule, editare etc. Initial am zis ca este un video din afara tarii. Apoi am vazut ca totul e facut in Ro. Bravo si felicitari pt. video! Sper sa o tineti tot asa si in curand sa va faceti un nume din asta, iar din punct de vedere finanaciar sa va mearga mai bine decat v-ati asteptat voi vreodata!

[@christiangreen612]

multumesc!

[@leemarzahl8891]

Very Cool build!

[@matei26bogdan]

Frumos 👏👏👏Felicitari !!!

[@boelie2001]

Great work! I hope to build one myself in the future. 😎 For the doors you could have left them in place with a few little tabs on the CNC router. You can then mount the hinges and cut those tabs. No more fiddling with alignment and very easy to do in almost any spot.

[@steeletaylor8079]

Spot on! That's engineering meeting the tradie

[@saddle1940]

If you made the door wider at the bottom (non-square), it could be up to 36in wide there and you'd be able to sit in bum first and swing your legs in. Way easier getting in and out. Worked for me!

[@MrJeep75]

Gorgeous

[@BrettHarned]

Great build! Where did you get the skylight window? I'm trying to source one right now and am having a hard time.

[@christiangreen612]

thanks. i made the window, by heating polycarbonate in a giant oven, over a sheet stainless steel mould, that i curved in some rollers. something like this kzbin.info/www/bejne/bniwiIuVbK1jb5Y the frame was made by laser cut

[@colestaples2010]

Proper tools make things much easier. Wish I had that shop so I could build one. I think I’ll buy a precut kit

[@christiangreen612]

i didnt have a cnc either, (i do now) i used a local cnc company to cut the parts for me. your right it is so much easier/better to have the parts cnc cut!

[@warpman74]

Great build! Got some Diresta vibes from this one! 😁👍🏻 How long did it take you to put it together?

[@christiangreen612]

thanks, from design to completion about 3 months

[@wilsonfire9050]

Excelente trabajo!! Pero como. Quedan esas piezas que solo fueron atornilladas? La vibracion. Es un problema con el pasar de los años que le afecta la humedad..... Si o si se mueve toda la estructura

[@kakman1958]

Nice job, Just today I glued up a 1:10 scale model of the trailer I intend to build. I'd love to have access to the machines you used but I'll be getting by with basic tools and a welder. I'm trying to go 'no wood' and using aluminium composite panels. I recently retired and it will be great to have a large project to keep me busy. BTW, did you build the trailer or buy one?

[@christiangreen612]

good luck with your build. yeah if i were to do it again i would make an aluminium space frame, with aluminium exterior panels, and only wood veneer for the interior. you can use a laer cut company for the cnc exterior panels, and contract a wood cutting company with a cnc router for wood panels

[@karp2005]

Hi Christian, great job with camper, looks amazing! What is plywood thickness on the walls and what did you used for outside siding, is it aluminum sheets?

[@christiangreen612]

thanks, i used 25mm thick plywood for the frame, and 4mm thick poplar ply for the interior veneer. the outside was 1.5mm aluminium laser cut to shape, and the red colour is vinyl wrap

The frame not being matel or aluminum, how rigged is it? I loved every second of the build. Great job.

hi Christian, I love your trailer, it's outstanding. I also love the integrated design, where all the shelves and dividers help the overall structure. You did unfortunately not leave any comments or explanations. What trailer frame did you use? what size is your teardrop? I also was wondering: the trailer all of a sudden was red. Did you paint it or were the panels red? And a big question: since it's a CAD design, would you sell the data?
