Mini Cabin Camper Build ... Start to Finish

[@spudhead169]

I seriously envy people that can do this stuff. I have so many ideas but lack the skill and wisdom to implement them. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this entire process and learned a bunch of stuff along the way. Hopefully one day I'll have the know-how to accomplish things like this.

[@blackspruce1861]

Thanks !! just start with one one of your smaller ideas and make it . every experience will teach you something

[@fdort3971]

Every single one of them started out not knowing. Anyone can learn, especially with the help of KZbin university!

[@blackspruce1861]

@@fdort3971 that’s right !! A lot of people think they didn’t learn these types of skills when they were younger so they can’t but honestly I learned most everything I know after my mid twenties.

[@redrockliving2131]

I'm no craftsman but I like to build. It's usually overbuilt and not as pretty as it could be. I was amazed at your skill level. Every time you did something I found myself saying, "Wow, that's a very smart way to do that ". That was an awesome build. Great job!

[@blackspruce1861]

thats awesome glad you enjoyed it !!! thank you !

[@Mr.S7R4WM4N]

I like it! And I agree with the trading skills and bartering the old ways just made more sense

[@blackspruce1861]

Thanks !! it really does work nice

[@bigbadjohn2543]

I enjoy watching people being creative. I used to work for a company who would build duct work. We also made metal fenders, why not, we had all the machines and smart people to build anything. We did install sheet metal against the metal frame to keep bugs out

[@blackspruce1861]

Thanks , glad you enjoyed it !! I like hearing that when businesses find other uses for their skills

[@ambiguous3886]

It's always great to see a builder set the example for younger viewers by wearing a respirator and not just ignoring the dangers of breathing in rust dust, sawdust, spray paint, bondo dust etc.

[@blackspruce1861]

I agree , and I just wish I would have been safer when I was younger . maybe my ears wouldn't have that constant ringing . you really don't get a redo with your body

[@blackspruce1861]

Thank you !!

[@rynait]

disagree. I am woodworker and believe I spotted "minor" mistakes. but I like his design. (aware it is his '2nd construction')

[@christophercollins4548]

Love the design. Never seen a small camper built to this design, but as it's all about "horses 4 courses", I'm guessing this suits you. Well done!

This building was great. Because you should mistake. And your solution. Great program. Super job

[@blackspruce1861]

Thanks !! it's great to not make mistakes but it's even better to be able to own up to them and figure out how to fix them

[@robertm7120]

I like this camper. Especially the small size, the color, and the materials used to make it. Although, if it was mine, I would probably replace the small door with something a bit taller. Other than that, I think he did an Outstanding job on this project. I would absolutely love to do a similar project. It would be a lot of fun to do something like this. I would especially enjoy designing the inside part of a camper such as this. Thank you for sharing your work with us. It was a very entertaining video.

[@blackspruce1861]

Thank you !! I agree and admit I'm a bit dissapointed with the door I looked at the purchase a couple days ago and realized there were more height option that I could have chose a taller one and still had it fit my wall . maybe I'll change it later

[@robertm7120]

@@blackspruce1861 You did a great job on that project! I don't intend too much criticism about the door. I really have no idea about the process involved for the materials, behind the scenes. It was just the only part that kind of stuck out in my mind when I imagine building something similar. But with that said, I think it's an awesome little camper! Perfect for any impromptu overnight fishing or camping trips.

@@robertm7120 thanks , no offense taken . I do wish I would have paid better attention when I ordered it

[@robertm7120]

@@blackspruce1861 I should also mention that I think that was a really good idea to put the flooring down early in the build. That is definitely something I will remember when I get an opportunity to do a build like this.

This was such a nice chill build video to relax to. I love how some of the sped up tool sounds resemble a string instrument tuning up, I think the background music really complements the work. Hope the trailer is as fun to use as it is watching you build it.

[@blackspruce1861]

Thanks I'm glad you enjoyed it !! I'm hoping so too. right now I'm getting ready to add some heat and power and hoping to get it out for a little winter camping

Love seeing the kayaks! My dad surprised me with one on my sixteenth birthday. I had no idea, he showed me a few videos and i got excited because i thought he was thinking of getting one and he grinned and took me out to the car cause he'd already gotten it XD It was AWESOME being a teen and being able to kayak at my own pace, wherever i wanted.

[@blackspruce1861]

Thats awesome ! are you paddling whitewater ? either way kayaking is a lot of fun

[@XaurianQueen]

@blackspruce1861 we went whitewater rafting once, but I've only kayaked in lakes. My dad used to do whitewater rafting tours as a job in college. I've since moved away and it wasn't feasible to take it with me, but he's gotten some use out of it! We own a large canoe, the kayak, and my dad has an inflatable Eagle canoe that he takes on trips. Easy to pack and send places :)

Very nice build. I made a similar tear drop, but not as complicated with the gable roof, not much for trim either, I had a month to build it after my Mom passed. I had 300 watts solar, and 30 gallon water tank underneath, ARB refrig and galley in the rear. I traveled all over the US for a year before moving onto a sailboat, Gave it to a friend that needed a place and he still uses it 8 years later ! built on a jet ski trailer

[@InCameraK]

Venice Beach 🏖️ and places like it limit the campers to under 7 feet or they can not park on city streets due to bylaws so to prevent it from being banned I bet that is why he made it under 7 feet high .However the fact he did not add brake lights and a proper tow hitch for standards where the brakes connect the Canadian ministry transport might get him at inspection and require all brakes etc for trailers have to have it and their own licence plates etc so when he started he should have put a better system in for new wires etc.
