I want to make one also. I’ve retired and just sold a Camper and have another I’m working on . But now that it cold I’m going to pull this little clam shell trailer into my garage , strip it to the frame and make the lightest trailer I can. We see how it goes. Good luck with you efforts
My friend calls that magic smoke, that came out of your saw. I had a circular saw that did that, but it was in a rig to work as a table saw so I just changed it out. Enjoying your build !
i am a retired Woodworker who did Commercial Architectual Woodwork installation and before that Residential Carpentry and trim installation eventually i wound up running the Architectual Woodwork Installation team for 20 years and at one point or another i’ve either bought or used a Contractor 10 “ tablesaw almost all brands use inferior motors and parts with lots of cheap plastic the only one i personally like and think is made halfway decent is The Dewalt which seemed to hold up best being used and abused on job sites as a common practice to help prevent damage to the tools and make it easier to clamp to stands and similar required workstations we typically bolted all our saws to a 3/4” Baltic Birch plywood platform so everything would work best on our saw stands out inthe field those plywood bases were oversized and very much added some additional protection and strength to all of our tools we typically protected the Veneer with a few coats of Conversion Varnish (satin) i like your Camper build , i’ve always wanted to do one myself one day but the timing hasn’t been right for me yet in the past i’ve gone with used Airstreams ?
Craig Monteforte it’s funny that you mentioned Dewalt. Most of my power tools are all Dewalt and that’s what I replaced the saw with. Thanks for watching!
That table saw's stickers were rolling up on the edges. Did it get wet? High humidity area? That may be why it didn't last long. I totally get your thinking. I recently, reluctantly, bought a Ryobi router and table even though I'm a Dewalt and Milwaukee fan. But it's ripping lumber just fine so far.
David Price It didn’t get wet but in southeast Texas humidity could have gotten to it. Never thought about that. Definitely like the Dewalt saw I replaced it with though. Thanks for watching!
I thought my camper was built strong as I used 2x3 and it looks like you used 2x4 studs that should be a beast. My next build I will stick with the 2 x 3 to save weight, drop by and take a look I did build mine 5 feet wide.
M Langford They are 2x3s actually 2x6s ripped in half. Yeah I’ve been following your build. A little behind on watching your vids but you’re doing good work. Thanks for watching!
All you teardrop builders should know that lumber/plywood suppliers sell a plywood that bends very easily. Called "bender plywood ". Cabinet shops use it in custom rounded cabinets, etc. Comes in 3/8th by 4x8 sheets. Makes building that back door on teardrop campers much easier. No spring back. Great on that front curve too. On that classic teardrop, rout a 1/8 or larger depending on your ceiling material thickness, groove 1/4"deep just under the roof line where the ceiling panel goes. Both side walls. Before installing the back kichen wall, slide your ceiling panel into that Groove all the way down to the front floor. No gluing, nails or supports needed . Its bend will keep it up in place. Any flat ceiling area will need a few tacks . Easy peasy.! Happy building!
I'm really enjoying watching you do this build. Excellent work. One request: raise the volume on your commentary, and lower the volume of the music. Again, great job!
Excellent work??? Did you even watch the video? The guy is an amateur if I ever have seen one. Look at timestamp 6.43 and see the two side panels not align with the two small front panels.
Keep it going. You are doing wonderful. Learning as you go is the best way to create your own style. Most don’t have the balls to even try building one. As someone who has built houses, I wouldn’t ha e an issue. But there are lots of people who don’t have the knowledge skills or know-how. More than that they have not the perseverance a project like this actually takes. So Rick on bro!
Thank you for making this video, I have no problem with the music either. But this video gave me the confidence to produce the floor structure that I needed and how to properly attach it to the trailer frame. I could not find anyone that had shown that process so I really appreciate you doing this period are there any other options for attaching the floor that you can think of?
Did you read about proper wire size for extension cords, can’t tell if you used one . If you did use too small a cord , too long a cord that would contribute to early failure. Not saying you did that , my son has one of those saws and we use it all the time.
Table saw issue was caused by putting it on a flat, unventilated surface. This prevents the motor in the saw from cooling itself. Don't operate one of these for extended times (ripping more than 1 or 2 8ft boards) unless you put it on an appropriate table. It will overheat... a better saw would have a thermal shutoff to prevent damage though.
Regardless of the music , or anything else, keep doing what you do....because if someone is looking to learn something they will, but most people will just be a bunch of Simon Cowells of construction but yet they cant do jack.
Thanks for sharing your work 👍 Giving me lots of ideas for my own camper build. I'm in Australia 🇦🇺 and plan to use it in the summer months in out back Western Australia, it can get up to 60 degrees celsius 🤣 so ill be fitting a air conditioning system. What weight did the camper come in at? Thanks again
1gravityworks The main issue I have with them is they are not designed to attach on a flat plane like a piano hinge. I am currently working on a video about hurricane hinges that will explain it better. Thanks for watching!
Very nice job. I saw the first part. I thought you were using the thick spars to insulate after. But I've got it now. Not a fan of the music, but sounds like your addressing it. Some people do, those who don't critique. Keep on building stuff, looks like your good at it.
Alex Legg I used all torx screws for the structure and stainless robertson screws for the aluminum trim on the outside because they look cleaner than the torx head screws.
Very cool build, regular guy, regular tools, regular materials. Don't sweat the naysayers. This shows you don't have to be a "fabricator" with cnc this and 3d that to make cool projects. Ya, that music, lol.
Trying to draw up my own plans on constructing a trailer. I wouldn't recommend driving fasteners into the butt end of the roof joists, just something I've heard from experts on wood joinery. Keep up the good work man. It's not easy!
@@TheDouglash you could either use pocket screws, or notch the walls and frame the joists into them so you can put screws perpendicular through the joist and then wall stud. That said, the poster is correct that screwing into the end face doesn't have as much strength due to how the screw interacts with the wood grain.
@@someonesmiticothanks I was going to say something on the other video but changed my comment. You are right. Many studs at home were put in the end of the studs, dad always hammered nails on an angle. Screws would even hold better than dads nails. Well back to the trailer build. I would put each stud under each roof rafter that would make the roof stronger if a limb fell on the roof of the trailer. 73
Great video brother. It would have been nice to see you save a ton of weight and have insulation with foam board. I’m just gathering materials to fabricate a 4’ by 6’ trailer into a 5’ by 8’. I really want to stay away from plywood, as much as possible, as I’ll be towing it with a small, but powerful Mazda 3 GT.👀 I’m looking forward to you cutting the aluminum skin and with what tools. Do you know the best place for aluminum sheets? Stay healthy. Cheers from the west coast, Nathan. 🙏🏼🇨🇦
hi I am on my husbands youtube so just want to say that I bought a home build a couple of years back and it pretty much did what yours did with the addition of black mold so tore it down and am working with my son when he has time to rebuild it by a plan this time. I want the solid walls like you are doing so have gleaned some good info for that from watching you do yours. Am excited to see your next step.My name is Paula.
Great video.... thanks for posting! Music was over the top and unnecessarily..... but you've got the video and editing down! Thanks again and keep up the great work!
When screwing down the sides and roof, at the edge of the plywood and screwing into end of plywood, to keep the ply from delaminating or splitting did you drill pilot holes first and what kind of screw did you use?
An easier way to spread glue is buy it in gallon jugs and use a 3" paint roller to spread it. when you are done for the day just leave the roller in the tray and wrap it with a garbage bag. It will not harden until you need the glue again.
I'm making one at the minute I'm just building the back hatch at the minute and came across your video here. I did mine a double skin with insulation. Do you plan on any insulation or is it very hot where you live?
Like the video, wondering how much this thing weights? your using some heavy lumber, looks like yellow pine as compared to spruce a lighter wood, didn't see what you used to waterproof the underside of the flooring?
Should have cut those ceiling joyce's in half 2x2 and ran them like that..L bracket on each end for extra strength and boom! But hey different strokes.... you would have gained 1" 5/8 of head space.. seems like not much but any gained in such small space is a benefit... nice job though.... love how you used the ply wood for walls without suds... no need in such a small project.. nice!!
Noe Aguinaga The ceiling joists are 2x3s. Probably over kill I know, but I may eventually add a roof top Air Conditioner and wanted to make sure it could support the weight. It gets hot in Texas. Thanks for watching.
Did you check for a fuse reset button? I have a nice big table saw and I occasionally over burden i and trip the fuse. Wet treated 2x could have pinched the blade.
Glen Morrow yes I checked for fuses and reset switch, there was none that I could find. Even looked at changing out the motor. Wasn’t worth fixing. I replaced with a dewalt. Thanks for watching.
Looks to me like there might be a couple more wiring holes you need to drill in those cross pieces by the fan? Or did I miss something? Keep up the good work. She's coming together.
You are so impressive! Wow! I really appreciate your video and instruction. I stripped down my Dad's 93 Prowler all the way to the trailer. How did you do your trailer base? I am not sure how I should do mine. It has new wood on the metal frame. I just put it on last summer. I am getting ready to start again this spring. I am thinking I will need to frame the floor
About router bits...they make specific cutting bits for that kind of cut, and I don’t think I’ve seen one as wide as the one you used. Looks like you probably heated it up doing a long, continuous, deep cut. In most jobs that require a deep cut like that, I would do it in a few passes or use a special spiral cutting bit, because that much continuous deep cutting will overheat your bit and destroy it.
Basecamp Unbounded no problem! I’m always glad to share a little info if it can be helpful. :) I’m glad it was well received, too. I realized after I commented that I may come across like a know-it-all.
good video....I have a Dewalt and Ryobi table saw ...both great...use diablo brand blades next time....had mine for years of great cutting like you just did...treated wood too. I see that your blade shows darkness on blade tips...sign of needed blade change. Diablo!! thanks for your tips and such...good build!!
Looking great. Never had a problem with any of my ryobi tools. I would not hesitate to recommend them to the diy/home owner. Looks like u were definitely putting it through its paces for a light duty saw ☺ Cheers
Thanks PATRICK. I don’t doubt that Ryobi makes some quality tools, but this is the cheapest table saw they make and it’s just not suitable for my needs I guess. Thanks for your support!
Reach in and push the "reset" button on the motor after it cools off. Also a bit smaller blade puts a touch less strain on those chip made things. Also, I agree with the other 329 people, You call that loud noise MUSIC? We could live without it!
Rommel Abesamis The camper is just over 4’ wide inside and just under 4’ ceiling height. Total interior length is about 90” but will be divided for a rear galley. The sleeping area will be about 6’ length. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
I’m sorry the music is too loud and not very good. I am working on improving for future videos. Thanks for understanding.

Juanita Jones Thank You!
Tip: use a bit holder on your impact or your drill, it will help hold your screws in place while you screw them in.
When screwing down the sides and roof, at the edge of the plywood and screwing into end of plywood, to keep the ply from delaminating or splitting did you drill pilot holes first and what kind of screw did you use?
I used stainless steel Robertson wood screws. I used marine grade plywood and did not use pilot holes and have not had any delaminating issues.
An easier way to spread glue is buy it in gallon jugs and use a 3" paint roller to spread it. when you are done for the day just leave the roller in the tray and wrap it with a garbage bag. It will not harden until you need the glue again.

Reach in and push the "reset" button on the motor after it cools off. Also a bit smaller blade puts a touch less strain on those chip made things. Also, I agree with the other 329 people, You call that loud noise MUSIC? We could live without it!
Abe Davis Appreciate the tips. Working on better music for future videos. Thanks for watching!
Great start to a great camper new friend my Texas brother
With smoke it did more than overheated.
You could replace with a heavier motor from Grainger.
This must be my favourites minicamp to build so far, I love it! :) ❤️
The Wild Raven Tales Thank you for the positive vibes!
I just watched the hatch build. You are good at what you are doing. I'm done on TH-cam for the day and I'm going to start a new project
If you haven't tossed the tablesaw those ryobi saws have a small capacitor that is replaceable for as little as $10 shipped.
Jared Williams it’s long gone but thanks anyway. Thanks for watching
Hey buddy if u don’t mind me asking how much was the lumber to make it
Ignacio Molina not sure exactly, but around $600. The plywood is marine grade so it was expensive. Thanks for watching!

Why didnt you use l brackets to gave extra support? Just screws isn't really strong.
Great spirit - wonderful job. Bless you.
I did not see any question about the inner dimension. May I know the measurement from height to width to length for a micro teardrop?
Rommel Abesamis The camper is just over 4’ wide inside and just under 4’ ceiling height. Total interior length is about 90” but will be divided for a rear galley. The sleeping area will be about 6’ length. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
