Summer in Queensland has been an interesting one this year. Good to see another video after a well-earned break. I have started building myself a camper trailer. Haven't taken it out three times now, and it rained each time along with stifling heat. Will hopefully have it more finished to show if there is a community camp later this year.

The lip on the kitchen fold down. I drilled holes, cable tie and stainless steal cloths pegs, now tea towel and underwear drying. I got suction hooks from bunnings. I can hang my utensils on the bench support side.

I bought a blue tent pole base and a tent pole. First, I ground off the blue tent base anti slip knobs and glued it under the kitchen bench. I cut the top and bottom tent pole in half, and I cut the canvas tip off and pole to get it out and placed in the cut pole and pulled off the bottom and fitting. Now I have a bench support leg. I did have a timber block and drilled a 25 mm hole half throw. Now I have a base for the leg.

The zippers, I got the idea off a video feed off another channel. I made with para cord, flat tied zipper pullers. Just do not do left side external door zipper. It gets caught up. And you can not shut front door. But I have done it all around. I can see where the zipper is, and it's easy to pull to open or close the windows.

Great vid, can't wait to visit there myself. 2 tip iv used for storms is to put a half hitch 2-300mm below the top of the tent pole so the rope also holds the pole and then hooks over the tent spigot as usual, also I drop the poles down to allow all rain to run off and give lower profile for the wind to catch, ps I thought erring on side of caution is not going swimming hahahah safe travels.

@adrianskipper-i8o10 ай бұрын
When camping in stormy wet weather best to secure the guy ropes with a half hitch around the poles and extra guy ropes . Then with a shovel dig a drain around your camp to allow the water to flow away . When putting up the awning have one side lower than the other to prevent pooling . Position the awning away from prevailing storms to reduce wind damage .

Not so simple when it takes 5-10 minutes to pull down and fold away and then not much room to sit 4 people in our little camper, then another 10 minutes putting it up again either in the rain or the dark. The awning did OK considering the wind 🤠👍

Cheers mate was a fantastic trip, I think if we were a little further north then definitely no swimming, but by the sounds of what was happening on Fraser Island at the same time we should have been more worried about the Irukandji jellyfish!
