How to Build a DIY Travel Trailer - Interior Cabinets (Part 4)

[@markzemlak1544]

I am at the start my cargo trailer camper planning and this entire series is awesome. Thanks for much for posting these videos! I look forward to making cabinets similar to yours with "pocket holes". Simple, lightweight and functional.

[@jesikmilkaritas9155]

a complete and far reaching bundle i am so excited with what i have in the bundle kzbin.infoUgkxpCNxqmAkyjN6NPx1fyB7QiEFWyO5mUWL . I could utilize this for quite a while to come. This is the most finish manual i've ever seen i'm very grateful.

[@jeffbaker5038]

Having a background in metalworking, I love watching metal workers do projects in wood. We don't abide by the saying, "trim will cover it". We try to make things fit perfectly lol. Great job by the way!

[@morganferris5914]

Thank you so much for posting! I have been restoring a 1974 Roadrunner Travel Trailer by myself with very limited building experience. KZbin videos like yours are insurmountably helpful. Thanks again!

[@kastenolsen9577]

Predrilling holes make for less frustration. A paper template for the hole locations is a great aid.

[@TheHippieGeeks]

Man, that pocket hole jig has me drooling. I really need to pick one of those up, seems like it would be useful on so many of the projects we do around here. Trailer is looking great, can't wait to see more of it come together!

[@homesteadonomics]

The Hippie Geeks yes it is really useful!! I would put in on a definite buy list at some point!! Very versatile!! 😀

[@mrfyxr7489]

A quick cabinet build. That''s what trim is all about...covering up what didn't come out quite right. Looks good , lasts a long time! I have used similar built technics. I built a folding screen using M&T for the corners and that thin Luan plywood. It came out nice and square and straight. I used the hinges that fold either way...2-way or 3-way...can't bring proper name to mind. Keep the good videos coming.

[@homesteadonomics]

MrFyxr yes those are some neat kind of hinges! And I’ll bet your screen is holding up very nice....mortise and tenon is a real nice touch and super strong too!😀👍

[@peternicholsonu6090]

I bought 12 metal bread bins from China. Screwed them to ply shelves. They are ultra light. Swing lids. No empty internal corner space. Allow ceiling to be seen above them giving illusion of space (full ceiling seen). Placed LED string lights top back of bins. All light. Best cupboards. Look like aircraft over lockers. Made 15’ trailer in shape of Airstream Basecamp with full panoramic front black “glass” curved above polished aluminium.

[@JDurkin2811]

I'm starting to feel like this trailer is my favourite build of yours, But I feel like that every time you start something new. Great job, Nice video.

[@homesteadonomics]

Joseph Durkin thanks Joseph! It’s definitely becoming one of the more viewed of the bigger projects. Just so many little faucets to the build....lots of fun though 😀👍

[@IanMossMakeMoss]

Love this project. It’s gonna be so satisfying for you when you take your family out camping in it for the first time 👍 Good Work Joe!

[@homesteadonomics]

Ian Moss thanks Ian! I’m reaaaally looking forward to it....haha...it will be something that I believe we are going to start using before it’s completely finished....the bathroom/shower/or whatever area will likely be just an open space or shelves/cubbby storage for a while so we can get to using the trailer. But once the kitchen and front dinette are done I think we are gonna start putting some miles on it😀

[@vlogchannel1260]

I like that camping place

[@uktony1525]

Open mouthed admiration for your hard work. I am always completely blown away by the meticulous build quality that you undertake. I think you and the family will be having some great trips in 2019. Kindest regards from across the pond.

[@Frankheyhou]

Great build, love the approach of rounding over all the plywood at once, instead of using a chisel to make each of the inserts square !

[@homesteadonomics]

thanks Sergio! yes, is sure made it a lot easier.... a little searching to find a template with the right radius but a little plastic bottle was eventually found that matched the inside curves :)

[@adlialghalban5016]

It's really beautiful job 👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍

[@harleco1]

Nice , I came in to take a break pulled up your channel to watch an older video and before it finished this video popped up. Love them all thanks

[@homesteadonomics]

Harley McCorcle awesome! Glad you came in at the right time....my internet is really slow and this took over 5 hours to load😬 Hoping the next one will be ready much sooner than this one....had a vacation which slowed everything down quite a bit😉👍

[@kyleguadagno8233]

Hey, would be awesome if you included a parts list for your builds!

[@johnnieblackburn3182]

VERY NICE WORK! AWESOME.

[@staxter6]

Nice job, nice family time. You do good work, deliberate and thorough. Competition is tough out there but you have my best wishes for you and yours. Looking forward to the adventures to come.

[@homesteadonomics]

Chris Brady thanks Chris! Me too! Can’t wait to have this thing done and be using it...haha

[@_philou_filou_]

Nice and clear even for a frenchie

[@silvergrizzly316]

I've gotta say Joe, I'm just in awe with your craftsmanship my friend. I can't wait to see you and your family go on that camping trip!! I love camping!!! But you've obviously been on a trip somewhere, or either lounging in a tanning bed, I'm willing to bet it's not the latter...😁😁😁,,, have a Blessed day my friend!!! ~Jay.

[@homesteadonomics]

Silver Grizzly haha...nope no tanning bed for me....We actually went to San Diego for a little vacation for my daughter to see the ocean....it was really nice!

[@silvergrizzly316]

@@homesteadonomics haha! I bet if was her first time she loved it!!!

[@fadsadmo3254]

👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾it’s turning out great this will be used for amazing family vacations.

[@homesteadonomics]

Fadsad Mo thank you!!! 😀🙏🙏🙏

[@kastenolsen9577]

Jigs are a great time savings tool. Many can be made at home.

[@SUVRVing]

Lol good to see you sticking with your roots with that hat. The trailer is looking great. I can't imagine how much work a project like this. Great job!

[@homesteadonomics]

SUV RVing thanks Tristan! Yes it’s been a whole ton of work....haha....but hopefully it’ll be worth it when we are doing the ‘tristan trail’ of western state adventuring😉👍

[@geedubb2005]

Nice work.

[@homesteadonomics]

Gee Dubb thanks GeeDubb!

[@beansandrice3296]

Yep,looking GOOD.

[@DualsPortvet]

From a guy that used to do custom cabinets, that jig is NICE! We had to build our own.

[@uncledoglips]

You are a very talented and patient man. I so much enjoy all your work. I like the fact that you keep everything clean and neat

[@homesteadonomics]

uncledoglips thanks so much UDL! I’m a fan of simple and clean😀👍

[@greatlistener1731]

Love to see that taking its final shape.. its really turning to be a great one..

[@homesteadonomics]

SOUNAK BANERJEE thanks Sounak😀👍👍

[@mikemorris2068]

It just keeps looking more like a camper each time you add something. I can't wait to see the install of the bed and other stuff. Keep up the good work.

[@afonsosn6895]

Looking great! You are creating something very special and all by yourself, that's something to be extremely proud of. I'm inspired by your work whenever you post a video/update. Looking forward to watching the rest of the build. All the best, thank you for posting!

[@homesteadonomics]

Afonso sn thank you Afonso! It’s totally worth if for my girls!! 😀👍

[@cleokey]

You've done a great job thinking this up and building. I'm confident this will provide years of enjoyable service. Your dog is a bit of a ham alright sneaking into the picture like a movie star. ☺☺

[@homesteadonomics]

Alan Pinho haha...she is a ham for sure! She was chasing a rabbit I think...she has gotten more rabbits and pack rats that’s I can count on two sets of hands...and mice and lizards too.....but those would be in the few sets of hands range😀 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@lebronjordan802]

Awesome 👏 job Joe! Always happy 😊 to watch your channel !!!

[@homesteadonomics]

thank you Lebron! And I'm always happy to hear from you too! thanks so much for following along during this build and all the positive vibes too! Joe

[@justanoldman697]

You're definitely more of a craftsman that you give yourself credit for.

[@schregen]

Nice trailer, dude! Love you, bye! Take care, bye bye! 🍄

[@homesteadonomics]

John Smith thank you John!

[@ngrnmck]

Thank you! My husband is doing this for our horse trailer and this video was so helpful.

[@blackberryhideout5793]

Those cabinets look so nice. I like the color. The upcoming videos are going to be neat to see.

[@homesteadonomics]

Thanks Jessica! I am still on the fence as for the 'lightness' of the color of the cabinets... but I'm trusting my wife with the whole color scheme ;)

[@blackberryhideout5793]

Good idea. Her color schemes always look so nice.

[@amirsadiq2922]

Your my inspiration sir like me want to start to do caravan Modefide I can get from you something new ideas tq sir your goal will be success I pray for you sir

[@johnkelley9877]

The cabinets look great! The color and the fit and finish are very impressive.

[@austingupton1421]

“Make it look like a real cabinet door”? You gotta be kidding dude, that is a cabinet better built than anything I’ve ever seen in an RV. Hell, the entire build is better quality than anything I’ve personally seen on the rv market.

[@Canadiansasquatchbrewery]

Awesome stuff as always Joe! That trailer is really coming together nice! And camping in it will be spectacular! Cheers!

[@homesteadonomics]

Canadian Sasquatch thank you Steve!

[@Raeburnsart]

Man, I really love these. Looks great and very much the styling I was going for, for my caravan. Good job and thanks for sharing.

[@pydepiperproductionsllcjon7585]

I liked what you did but I didn't have time for that. I found out my local Lowes discounts the cabinets that get damaged which most can be hidden or fixed. And just slapped them up.

[@elkhunter8664]

Great video. Happy wet October from Ahwatukee! The rainfall from the last two storms was magnificent. Loved it.

[@homesteadonomics]

elk hunter oh man! Yes it has been awesome....my tanks have been overflowing the last couple weeks!!! 😀👍

[@jenidol1]

You're awesome. Loved your video. Looking forward to watching more to help me with my new camper reno!!

[@gilbertrobles1374]

Looking forward to next video👍

[@homesteadonomics]

Gilbert Robles me too! Hoping it will be much quicker than the gap of the last video timewise😀👍

[@OddLifeCrafting]

That's nice!! It's so cool that you are always a few steps ahead of us on the build so watching your travel trailer is like doing "school home work" for us. Hehehehe thanks a lot for sharing!! And we look forward for the bad platform as it will be the first furniture we plan to build on the shipping container!!👌🏼😊

[@homesteadonomics]

Odd Life Crafting haha....I’m pretty sure I’m learning as much from you and your container build too! 😀👍

[@OddLifeCrafting]

homesteadonomics that’s what I love about youtube, this amazing exchange of information from so far away!! It’s amazing!!😊👌🏼

[@haroldcooper9867]

We Loved this Build and Can't wait till the next part.

[@jimcooney9019]

thanks for sharing the video

[@homesteadonomics]

Jim Cooney thanks for watching Jim!

[@donnervogel0187]

I have rated this project positively, but I admit it: I am a little jealous of your skills!

[@TracyIndy]

Im learning so much from this build. Thank you for sharing all the videos. That jig is the bomb! The cabinets look great and will no doubt be used often. Im looking forward to seeing the cooler being set up and the solar array. Im guessing youre ina warmer climate, but I think I would have added more insulation in the ceiling where there was room. Keep up the great work. I too am drooling over all your great tools and work area. I know your family will love and appreciate this camper when done. Your energy level is an inspiration. Happy building .

[@TerraFirmaX]

Hey buddy, looking great, can’t wait to see you guys camping in it.

[@homesteadonomics]

The Arizona Homestead Project thanks! We can’t wait either!!!!

[@TerraFirmaX]

homesteadonomics I don’t know if you noticed, but I changed my channel name from TruckerWarren to what it is now. I’ve learned so much from you and will be applying a lot of the same principles as you. We’re in Douglas BTW. Thanks for all you do on this channel to help us all out.

[@elc7795]

Nice job! This is a Great project that will end in family fun!

[@homesteadonomics]

Eshelman Lawn Care thanks! We are sure looking forward to it!!!!

[@CStewart0416]

Hahaha! Love the hat! The cabinets are great too!

[@homesteadonomics]

Cory Stewart haha...thanks Cory! 😀👍

[@danielfisch655]

You're really skilled. Great job and I'm making some shaving brushes for me and our two sons using my drill press as you did in an older video. They are turning out great and thanks for sharing your videos.

[@homesteadonomics]

Daniel Fisch awesome! Glad you are getting the boys into traditions shaving too!

[@fluffyjoker69]

Love watching ur videos...I'm half way expecting a Murphy bed or maybe even a Murphy bunk bed thing to pop up inside & a portable transformer kitchen that can fit slide out of the tiny door on the outside of the trailer. Now all u need is a shower & outside t.v. with surround sound, lol.

[@96chevydually6.5L]

Nice work!

[@Welcometomyjourney20]

What a greatly inspired story. Waiting for the final touches!

[@charljoubert6993]

Taking shape nicely Joe !!

[@homesteadonomics]

Charl Joubert thanks Charl!

[@danielblahuta3330]

Love the camper! I wish I had your building skills. Super job!

[@homesteadonomics]

Daniel Blahuta thank you Daniel! Bu they aren’t all that good...I make mostly pretty basic things. Nothing too fancy. I just take the big projects and just break them down into small less complex steps😀👍

[@mjremy2605]

Very nice series. I like your shop, cozy and organized. What a view! Fresh raspberries, yum! Great to see how those cabinets went up. I may have to redo mine in my RV. The music was very stressful and hurt my ears. Turning volume knob on and off every time it came on, was a real pain. I feel this video was marred by this music overlay. Natural sounds are much better and very soothing to hear. The sound of the stream for example was completely ruined by the artificial music. Please keep all music out of any DIY, demo, tour, cooking and wildlife vides.

[@migwhitt5503]

Thank you for the video, I have been wanting to make my own cabinets. Loved the jig, you need to go buy one. Happy Camping!

[@annettegraves716]

hinge jig is great! nice job!

[@homesteadonomics]

thanks Annette!

[@stompbuilds5416]

Mad skills!

[@homesteadonomics]

Steve Svensson thanks Steve!!!!

[@ToddLarsen]

Great job Joe! Those cabinets are beautiful, I've got to get one of those angled drill jig thingies lol Looking forward to the next update, almost done😃👍 Thanks for sharing and as always Keep Building👍

[@homesteadonomics]

DIY Aquaponics with Todd Larsen thanks Todd! Yes the pocket hole guide is a definitely add to any shop....pretty cheap and makes simple joinery a breeze

[@tovaritchboy]

DAMN getting closer all the time. Looking GREAT!

[@homesteadonomics]

thanks! home stretch now I think! working on the bed platform today... just taking a break for coffee and comments :D

[@tovaritchboy]

Sounds good, going to make storage under the bed or use it as a sofa that can be folded down to make a good sized bed? Coffee and reading comments are good thing, get some thoughts and ideas. Side question, how is the rain harvesting going with all the rain hear getting lately? fruit trees really taking off? Haven't shown us the garden area with the little swales and catchment basins.

[@knightclan4]

Brilliant

[@alejandrohuguenorojas6782]

Excellent. Very good, Un gran trabajo. Saludos desde Chile.

[@quentinsherratt7969]

Good work💯🎯

[@tusharpearl]

This type of trailer is not common in India... always love to watch your video to learn some skills

[@MrTim3990]

This is an awesome build. You might want to think about locks on the cabinet doors to keep them from opening during rough driving. I have an Air Stream cabinets like yours and you have to twist the knobs for the doors to open. Great Job!!!

[@homesteadonomics]

MrTim3990 yes for sure to the locks....I have considered magnets too but for really rough roads locks would be way more secure 👍

[@javierdiaz17]

Excellent 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Me vi la serie completa, que gran trabajo y tremenda paciencia. Excelente.

[@enzofernando6347]

Me puedes traducir de cuanto lo hizo.?

[@stilcrazychris]

Looking good sir, looking good. I really like those pocket hinges. I will have to remember that if we ever get around to fixing ours back to camping shape. Or just trading it in for a little bit more space. I'm doing everything in my power to get you to take it on as a remodeling KZbin project. But I'm sure I'm wasting my breath... lol... I thought you might change your mind if I begged the crap out of you. But I'm not going to do that. But a girls gots to try. Take care & have a wonderful week, Chris from Missouri

[@homesteadonomics]

haha... no harm in asking right ;) but I'm dreaming of camping when this thing is done...versus another one... ;)

[@malazkm]

I want to do this so bad. I love your videos. so i had no other choice but to subscribe.

[@dineis2tati]

Amigo seu trabalho é ótimo , vou me inspirar em você, muito obrigado pelas dicas.

[@kallenhunstiger7970]

Looking great, Joe.

Kallen Hunstiger thanks Kallen!

[@trishhue5603]

Have enjoyed seeing this camper trailer build. Looking for one cabinet opening down, stopping at 90 _l. Creating extra plane to hold a spice or two.

[@allparguy]

I noticed in your camping clips your father-in-law was wearing an RDO hat - smart man :)

[@uknowulikethat4042]

looks good Joe. don't forget a cabinet for the mead.

[@chrisp755]

That's some fancy engineering sir!

[@homesteadonomics]

Chris P thanks chris!

[@dragonflygrandma]

Looking great! Might want to think about latches for those doors, so things don't fall out when in motion.

[@homesteadonomics]

Dragonflygrandma definitely will be adding some latches or something eventually 😀👍

[@dualsportbandit]

thank you for your sensible, concise videos, sir!

[@homesteadonomics]

Daniel D haha...thanks Daniel!

[@SkyroofNova72]

You've got to do an update on your rainwater harvesting with all this rain we are getting in AZ. Crazy! All my life here and I could count on one hand the wet months like this I've seen.

[@homesteadonomics]

SkyroofNova72 oh man....it has been a great month for sure! But my focus has been in this trailer and a little vacation we took...so I got no footage😬 But we have been overflowing for about a month now and it has really hit me to thinking about increasing my capacity again

[@navi_als]

great excellent

[@homesteadonomics]

NAVI_ALS thanks 🙏

[@BigSkyAtNight]

Looks great! Such a well made trailer. Love the photo bomb from your dog 😁. And beautiful camping footage at the end 👍
