- This is my attempt at building a camper that can fit in the back of my truck that is not too big, just big enough to sleep in and load up and go when we are ready for an adventure.

We just drove past this. It is really well made and great advertising.
Hi,
I am an old geezer woodworker, flutemaker who lives in the home I built 45 years ago. Good job. Do bolt it or tie it down. As for your girl helping as long as she isn’t with child she should do what she feels comfortable with. Blessings, young folk. Rand
Rand Rowe that awesome, I would like to build my family a home one day! The camper is tied down to all four corners of the truck bed. The camper is not really that heavy, I could lift it by myself but the size needs someone on either side. Thank you for your kind comment!
You've inspired me to make one of those for my Tundra !!! Only my sloping roof will be tall enough to stand up straight in and then will taper down towards the front of the truck. I have to be able to stand up in it or I will lose my mind. Keep up the AWESOME work. !!!
HayabusaOrlando Good luck Building! It is really satisfying having staying in something you built!!
howd it go? i was gonna make one for my tundra. I have a 5.5 bed crewmax so mine would have to have tailgate down and go beyond if im gonna sleep in it, curious if you made one and have same bedsize
@@jaredlabriola I turned my bed the other way. With a dully it would not be wider than the truck. Mine only sticks out 4" on each side.
Justin is DA MAN!!!!!!💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😃😃😃😃😃
I love the way you showed detail in your video. I think you did a great job. And you most definitely are a woodworker!
That looks fantastic, you did a wonderful job.
I'm sure by now you've come up with a better system to load / off load. Looks nice. It makes a difference when you make it yourself but you knocked it out of the park.
Did a nice job of tearing the bottom up loading it
Wow! You, sir, are highly skilled.
This is pretty sweet! It's like if Bilbo Baggins built a camper. Very cool for some weekend getaways.
Nice sauna
Very cool
Its a new meaning for having a woodie..
Love this!
Felicitaciones desde Argentina!!! al sur, bien al sur!!!
This was very helpful.
Great job !!!
Your build inspired me. This is what was finished in the first 5 days with two people.
Could not figure how to get the picture to post.
Would love to see your build
@@JustinStanley send me an email and I will send pictures. We should be finished by June 20. Our trip.
What up from Alaska! Nice man!
Awesome informative Video experience Y'alls God Bless Ya Prayers 🙏
Honestly, quite an inventive use of the space :)
Thank You!
wow! so cool
Sweet!
Fantastic excellent Sweet I love it I want one
nice work i love your idea
Very nice !
Awsome build. If you are still concerned about drivers behind you, you could install a blue tooth camera above your door.
Just saw your little house on the road, looked up the channel and here I am! Pretty cool!!
Fret saw, or a coping saw! Nice work too! 👍
Nice job! I especially appreciate it being able to accommodate taller people. An earlier comment about the hinges is correct. As is, someone could still gain access to your "stuff". How well has the polyurethane held up when exposed to the weather? I used it on an outside door that had to be stripped and coat with spar varnish the following year. Again, great job. I enjoyed your video. I now plan to build something similar for my small utility trailer, that I can remove when I need to use the trailer for something else.
sweet nice build
Awesome!
Especially a nice job preparing the cedar pickets. 9:00 = coping saw
Very nice
Passed by your truck!!!
I wish I had the know how and the guts to start a build like this. Great work!
use cardboard. make a scale size one. the goal is understanding what goes into making it. you can do it. fear is just weakness leaving the body. I'm Making one now. But It looks nothing like this one. Lucky i started so I can make my changes lol
14:36 …… Me every single morning when I wake up.
Unique build. Very well done. I would've suggested 1/4" plywood for the roof to reduce weight, especially since you covered it with glass. Keep the CG lower.
Copping saw is what you were using. To bad there's not a speaker button when someone forget what something I s called 😂
Die Preise, möchte ich wissen und tel. Nr. ?...
Good Work 👍
Hey man, very nice build! Just wanted to say that :). Definitely inspiring!
Inspirational! 1977 I had a guy build me something similar, but my brand new GMC Pickup rusted under the paint 75% in under 18 months! I sold the rig. Now I want to try again with my aluminum F150 , DIY like you.
Very nice attractive and functional build. Well done video aaa well!👍👍👍👍👍👍
Very very nice, congratutations of Chile
Great job looks good too! 😎👍 Maybe look up a few options to make your hinges more secure with the removable pins being a bit of a weak security feature!?!?
Excellent..😍😁
Fits like a glove! I’ll be the first night sleep felt good with all the work put into it! Beautiful job Justin!
homesteadonomics The first night was awesome, spent it up in Flagstaff and continued up north through Utah and Idaho for a two week trip to see family, it held up great!
I just passed you on the freeway
@@joshabug4671 what was I driving.... there are a few folks that have my stickers on their vehicles.... just want to make sure it’s not an imposter😂
Good craftsmanship 👍
Thinking of doing something similar and then building a small utility trailer into a kitchen and bathroom combo to pull behind.
nice ideal!
Coping saw.... nice build!
Weld the bottom of the door hinge pins to keep someone from just taking the pins out
Adorei vou construir um igual colocar em uma carretinha....parabéns sou do brasil concordia sc...
I just saw you in Pinetop!!!
I just passed you in a Ford F-150 on the freeway dude I say ur utube on the back in Arizona that’s so cool
I learned to not worry about whats behind me,except when backing up
I want to build one but just resting on the be rails. but sleeping side ways is great.
I think I would put the hinges on the in side, that way the locks might work.
Very Good video....very Goood¡¡¡¡
Really nice work and I'm impressed with using cedar fence planks for shiplap. Is it tied down to the truck?
Thanks for sharing Justsin. Nice job! What if you wanted to drop this off at a campsite? Any ideas of how not to get it stolen?
We won't talk about the door frame getting caught on the tail gate 😆
Or, the new SawStop box catching on the threshold.
(Sorry Justin, had to go there.) Did you get it out OK?
steve
Justin great build! hows everything holding up? thanks for the sharing ur journey!
Nicely done i know aerodynamics were considered during the build but you should have gone a few inches higher and at the base a few inches wider it appeard to have significant room, this wood have made for a snug fit to much play isn't good someone else mentioned tying it down securely, also a good idea. Overall i enjoyed the build. I always say go big or go home. It's always better to have a couple of extra inches rather then second guessing oneself. Thx for sharing?👍
Great job! How much does it weigh?
As your blade is getting caught when using the hacksaw, we always just drizzle a bit of gasoline on the blade and it cuts like butter
At 14:45 almost my heart broke, then they slid it over and it fit !!! Lol
Looks nice, But aren't you worried about the hinge pins being vulnerable on the outside?
Nice build. How did you secure it to the bed of your truck?
Can you explain how to make the curves in 2 dimensions for the roof?
👍👍👍
That is really nice but, how are you going to sleep in it? You look taller than it looks long or wide.
Wonderful built! Who copied who? You or ENDGAME? Now I'm going to copy both of you two. Regards Rickard from Sweden 🇸🇪 😀 😊
Here is a formula to calculate your arc on future projects. I used this when doing gable arches on my home. You calculate the circle based on the length and center height of the arc you want, then set up a giant compass in the driveway with a rope and pencil. Radius of a circle from arc info
:
R=H/2 + W(2nd pwr)/8H
Of course this only works for a uniform arc so may not have helped you on this project anyway. Still, a good formula to keep on hand.
Thanks
Very nice build!
But I'm shocked that you don't have furniture dollies in your shop, they're less than $10.00 each.
Justin, about 9 minutes in. Coping saw.
(What would you expect from a guy fixin'
tools?)
steve
Your door hinges are reversed. You have no security. All it takes is removing those 4 pins and the door falls out. Hinges are supposed to be inside the door. Check your house and front door for the proper install of door hinges.
Nice job👍👍
Scribe saw
Cooping saw , hand tool
No sir, it's called a dado cut. A kerf is making a similar cut but allows you to bend a board. Great idea using an oscillating saw For the mortise cut. As for stain, try a sample of "Provincial" color stain. It's my favorite. Also, poly isn't your best choice. Next outdoor build you do, use Sparthane. It's formulated for outdoor "poly" use. But please tell me you secured the shell down to the truck. Great job
Guy H. Thank you, I will have to try that! It is secured to the bed in all four corners with turnbuckles
how is it anchored in?
I would prop the camper up at an angle, then back the truck up under the front of it.
Yeah, I'll probably use a small hand held belt sander instead of a chisels :o)
Dude! You have a planner, I'm jealous, Ive been wanting one for 50 years LOL
Are some of these your Dad's tools? Some of them look older than you.
Arizona
You have the same watch face and same band style as I do on my ionic, now this wood diy camper....guess great minds think alike
Is that a 5 foot or 6'4" Dodge? Trying to think how to build an 8' F-150 shell only light enough for 1 person to handle it. Wood gets pretty heavy pretty quick.
What happens when it rains and water gets into the bed under the camper? Does it corrode the wood from the bottom? Or is it all sealed well enough for it not to be a problem?
whats the reasons for making it so low? just easier to build? i want to build one like this but id like to make it 6ft if i could
What was the cost of materials. Do you own a planer, or did you rent it?
you doubled the value of your RAM
How long is that cargo bed?
Nice fit and glass work. You keep this permanently on? MPG Cost? No issue water pooling in the bed?
Mpg should be -2
so elegant. do you go to school or something to learn the trade?
How is this fastened to the truck?
You forgot to strap it down to the bed of the truck. In case bump terrain or strong winds while traveling.
There are holes in the front corners to attach to the bed tie down eyelets.
Is that a 6.4 inch bed ?
How much does that rig weigh?
What was your final total weight of the camper?
good question ... ?
A couple questions first how much did the whole project cost 2nd how much does it weigh since it took 2 men to put it on the truck no problem[light weight unit is very ideal considering what I plan on building
I don't know how much this cost but I have one that I am building and will have less than $1000. Mine you can stand in up to 6' with a small cabover.
Coping saw for that thing. Did you glue and screw or just screw your framing?
I did glue and screw the framing
Is there anything you would do differently if you were to build another? This one looks really neat.
Greg Boyer Definitely give the cedar more time to dry completely before mulling it into the ship lap boards to reduce it drying on the frame. I was working on a deadline so I kinda rushed. Maybe make it a little taller for more head room, but I like how aerodynamic it is, doesn’t affect my mpg.
Lucky him he jad a strong girlfriend,
not a 'princess' :-)
What paper work is needed to carry that? Or is it just considered cargo?
I believe it is just cargo, been driving around with it for a year now and haven’t had any trouble
