This was my first time building a camper. I made many mistakes. Learned a lot along the way. I think I might have to build another one to see how much better and quicker we can make it! Thanks to my subscribers for all the support!

BEST bedroom on wheels i have seen in a long time. Couple of advise from experience? Add jacks to the back. lift it off the ground. when you move in bed the whole thing shakes without them... Cover and waterproof those drawers. Water will get in and rot the wood. You WONT see it. It will just happen :( Add a diamond aluminum rock plate to the front bottom 1/3 of the trailer...maybe cover for the front window while travelling. Safe place to put wet dirty shoes at the door (I know Americans wear shoes indoor but come on LOL) More tongue weight. Battery/trickle charger for lights, propane tank for stove, lock box for tools/whatever AWESOME trailer my brother.

He made mistakes but that's often exactly the ticket to heaven to do it really good at the second attempt. An industrial crafted camper is produced fast and efficiënt. When you have time and do the same steps you do every step way better often. More glue, more attention for each screw you use and so on.

The only part I would worry about is that, unless I missed something, everything is attached to the base plywood sheet with pocket screws through the edge of plywood, into plywood. Like that base of 3/4 ply is bolted to the trailer frame with those T-nuts, that's good, but the load from everything above has to go through the pocket screws in the vertical plywood pieces on the "drawer" level?

You should be proud of yourself, obviously you pay attention to detail- great build. A trick for your next build - when drilling out the holes to bolt the unit to the trailer make the holes about 25% larger than needed for the bolts, plug one side and then fill the hole with epoxy. After the epoxy is hardened drill out the proper size hole for the bolts - this will leave an epoxy ring which will protect against moisture. (It's the same method used for drilling through fiberglass hulls, etc in boating).

Lots of wrecks caused by these cheap Chinese trailers because the bearing catch fire the first 1000 miles

Usually the stabilizer jacks are just to keep it from rocking as you move around - if you jack it up too far you may bend the frame. I've had a 26' camper with slide, and a camper van, and must say I love not taking 20 minutes to disassemble everything when I go - just hop in the driver's seat and start it up.

What most people would say is, "You could have bought one cheaper." But what you need to remember is a travel trailer is undergoing a 5.0 earthquake the entire time you are pulling it. No matter the price you pay, there are industry standards. That is 1st and foremost, PROFIT. Make it as cheap and as fast as you can to get ROI quickly. I worked in the RV service department for years, and no one brand is better than another. This one is solid, insulated properly, and most of all, HIS VISION. A work of art that WORKS! The highest marks from me and hooe, your family, get years of enjoyment from it.

Man that was such a well thought out and amazing build! One suggestion/tip as a DIYer and an RV nut. Never ever use silicone, it's pretty much a rule in all things RV related, Dicor is an amazing and better option. Also, I use all ChemLink products on my build, caulk, roofing, adhesive and so on. It's works insanely well without the off gassing and nasty chemicals since you'll be sleeping in there. Good luck with the projects and you got another sub from me!

No silicone, why exactly ? Just because of the odor or what ?

@@daltonx6177 Nothing will stick in the spots you put it after using it. It's also not a great product for sealing in those situations. It's sort of like if you used petroleum jelly, it could work in a pinch but it's less than ideal. I personally always offer much less on any RV with silicone on it because I know how much time and effort will have to go into fixing the issue.

Yes , the off gassing issues needed to be addressed . Many people are not aware of how big a health issue that is , especially in a small sealed space. Letting this unit sit out in the sun and well ventilated all summer is a good idea.

I love seeing solid, well insulated things come together. So many people leave gaps and holes in insulation and it's so triggering.

You may want stabilizing jacks on the rear two corners (at least), and maybe the two front corners as well. Less bouncing when you're in the camper, and less side strain on the tongue jack. That's WAY too small for me, but for this time in your life, perhaps it's right for you. Different strokes and all that stuff. Weigh it, empty and fully outfitted for camping. Make certain your loaded weight is not too much for the frame, axles, springs, and tires. Trailer tires often have maximum speed ratings as well - don't exceed! I did not see trailer brakes on there - be very aware of the momentum of the trailer, which will tend to push the back end of your tow vehicle out in turns and under heavy braking. Practice defensive driving and leave LOTS of extra following distance. I have driven big trucks and travel trailers all my life, and there's lots of stupid drivers out there! LOTS. Enjoy! Consider a tent-type awning, either connected or free-standing, which will allow you a weather-free space just outside the door. Bringing rain, mud, and leaves into your bed would get real old real fast!
