Between the calm voice over work, the steady pace of the videos, and the great content in general, this is easily my favorite channel. I really enjoyed watching you today build the roof (and seeing the blade break!) Always such a pleasure to watch and listen to.
Great content. You're not in a hurry to crank out vids and thats alright. You show your trials and tribulations...authentic. Fine work and craftsmanship.
I was an HVAC contractor for many years. You don't have the dexterity with gloves that was needed most of the time anyway. The cuts I got were onmy arms and legs. Not to say it doesn't happen. But gloves give a false sense of security. So understand they don't compare to being on point with attention to detail. That is what keeps you safe. Definitely not safety wrapped in bubble wrap. There is no safety in that... Attention to detail, is what keeps you safe...
Carl. So glad to catch your posts when they pop up. Thanks for being so intentional and persisting despite the obstacles. It’s very much appreciated. As is the generous content.
Great to see you back, Carl. Your mix of architecture, carpentry, videoing and mechanical skills are a great pleasure to witness. I can imagine your future enjoyment of being snug inside your trailer.
@carlroge did you read these two comments by Ken and BRNZ1 also please ensure that you screw the tin down from the highest curve point, not the lowest, this will ensure that you have a leakproof roof. If you do it in the valley of the curve there is the potential to cause leakage from over tight screws, if you accidently over tighten on the high point water will just run off into the valley and not sit round the screw hole. I live in Australia and every corrugated tin roof is screwed down in this manner. Im sure my fellow aussie @grahameroberts8109 will agree. Cheers 🦘🐨oi oi oi !
A few nights ago I dreamed about a structure that looks similarly shaped to the main design you're making. I was sitting at my dining table and admiring it covering a bird feeder that I have back by some woods. I thought the dream was a result of me worrying because a hawk has been hunting the songbirds out near there. But now I've seen your video and it seems serendipitous!
Thanks for the detail you go into on each step of the build, the time it must take! Amazing progress and the workmanship looks fantastic. And to top it off a lovely convoy onto the ship
Carl, you young man, are a Master Craftsman. I am always checking to see if you have posted a new video. I truly look forward to watching your projects. Keep up the amazing job you do, and keep the videos coming.
Wonderful workmanship, and design engineering. Yes trailering anything even slightly sharp or hard edged, one must pad the straps to prevent chafing. I’ve been towing wooden boats for twenty years. The roadways conditions will wreck your stuff faster than anything. I have had trailers leave the roadway hopping over a hump in a freeway where the speed limit is 110kph. I was going much slower. Roads in California are crap.
I was so excited to see that another post was up! I love to watch the precision of your work. Good on you for keeping your fitness level up. It's not always easy. Everything in the build is looking really purposeful. Great design.Thank you so much for sharing your work, process and thoughts Carl. Best wishes and I'm very glad to hear that all is well.
For the ceiling boards, get yourself a pack of canoe cedar strips. 11/16" x 1", cut with a cove on one side and a matching bull nose on the other. The size and joint allows for really tight fitment around a curved frame. They look much better than cheap tongue and groove boards your using, plus they're better quality and will last. They're also easy to make yourself too!
@idontthinkso666 Depends where you get them from. My last order I got through an American canoe specialist. It was part of a kit for a ply kayak that formed the deck, not the hull. It was 11/16 cedar. I've also made my own strips and depending on the wood type and application, I've cut at thickness between 1/4" all the way up to a full 1". The latter was for a ceiling on a customer's self build camper van, in bamboo, (a real bugger to work with tbh)! But much 'classier' than the usual pine t&g.
@@_______v Of course you can get Cedar in Europe! Western Red Cedar for example in Britain. Both home grown and imported. I'm France home grown Cedars like Atlas or Lebanon are easily available. You don't know what you're talking about my friend. As for importing from the US - in the example I mentioned it was a custom build for a customer who specified a specific kayak kit from a US manufacturer. All the materials to construct the kayak - hull, deck, epoxy, furniture etc were supplied in the kit. Also, as I said in my comments it's easy to make your own vibe and bulk nose planks with a simple router set up using latch, spruce, maple or even bamboo.
@@gillie-monger3394 I didn't know the UK grew western red cedar, I stand corrected. Since western red cedar is a type of cypress not native to Europe and there's no cedar native to North America I didn't expect the UK to have what Americans call cedar apart from the occasional curiosity.
Glad to see you back. Hoped all was well as I have really enjoyed following along with this project. Your skills are truly next-level and I look forward to each new video.
Carl, I have have to hand it to you for your planning and meticulous attention to detail. I also have to hand it to your dad for kidding you about the missing mudflap. 😊👍👍👍
I'm glad to know that your visa has been renewed. I hope it lasts forever :)... your work, whether in restoring the building or on this trailer, is fascinating. TH-cam has the gift of offering followers a feeling of closeness to creators, almost familiar. Thank you very much for sharing this piece of your life and your ability to transform wood. Accept a big hug from Lisbon
Great video as always Carl, I’m really fascinated with the craft - never thought I’d ever be interested in how a shepherd’s hut is constructed, but here I am, always looking out for the next installment 👌
Great video! I used to build shepherd huts here in Canada. So far this looks really nice. When I saw you picking up the roofing, I immediately thought: oh, maybe it would be good to wear gloves!
For the sheep wool, you can call a sheep farmer, they cut their wool and usually it goes to waste (a shame), it could be free ! Great work ! PS : you can wear gloves for the metal sheet, they are ones that are confortable to wear :)
There's the difference. Many of us would have gone right through those dogs with the jigsaw. Also the distain for that lump of glue. Helpful Dad commentary there about mudguards & cuts. Give this man an IFOR. Project seems to be going well.
how can you lose a fender..? Dad can be a bit of a crank eh..? watching you work to such an exacting measure is so satisfying. what an amazing project.
8:42 Dad’s everywhere: “You were just driving along, and the guard fell off?” *said with as much disbelief and, and not a little accusation, as possible LOL
Love the work you do. I bought one of the original jackets and wear it often while doing my own projects. I was able to remove the down on label on the front of the jacket - I prefer unbranded clothes. Looks like the new version has the coto label woven in, making the removal not possible any longer. I’d consider that a step backwards - I like the dark blue but not sure I’d get it fully badged.
For the ceiling boards you could look to how sometimes the sides/ hull of canoes or kayaks are made. They round off one board which then fits in an inverted ‘round’ of an other board. It’s a bit like tongue and groove but now you can make an angle with it.
Hi Carl, I'm enjoying the build so far. I recently purchased some sheeps wool insulation from Celtic sustainables. I found them quite reasonable price wise and believe they do 75mm thick which should suit your needs. Hope this helps. James.
You say thanks for watching, I say thanks for making. Looking forward to the next videos and the chapters of your story 👍
Here we go - another dose of delight. Can't wait to see the finished product.
Between the calm voice over work, the steady pace of the videos, and the great content in general, this is easily my favorite channel. I really enjoyed watching you today build the roof (and seeing the blade break!)
Always such a pleasure to watch and listen to.
Thank you for showing the mistake with jigsaw and the broken bit. I make loads of mistakes and seeing you do this makes me feel less stupid. 😊🤣
Great content. You're not in a hurry to crank out vids and thats alright. You show your trials and tribulations...authentic. Fine work and craftsmanship.
Steel and bare fingers do not mix Carl; as you know. Thanks for not editing that out to show how accidents can be avoided. Love your work! 👍🏻🙏🦘
but continued without gloves
Gloves for the win!
I was an HVAC contractor for many years. You don't have the dexterity with gloves that was needed most of the time anyway.

I love this series. It's made excellent watching. Appreciate your work 😊
my favorite channel
Good to see you back, very nicely done with those half laps too
Instead of tongue & grove boards look in to bead & cove router bits. B&C is used in boat building with tight radius. I enjoy your project.
Exactly what I was going to suggest. You could also add back tongue & groove features with a router if you were desperate for “yee oldee” look.
@carlroge did you read these two comments by Ken and BRNZ1 also please ensure that you screw the tin down from the highest curve point, not the lowest, this will ensure that you have a leakproof roof.

Such a nostalgic atmosphere to your videos I so look forward to them and often re watch just to unwind
Alright, new upload..gonna be a good day Carl .
Great to see you, your dad and Rafia.
Now I can see it coming togethet.
You're one special talented guy. Missed ya! Glad you're back!
Carl, you young man, are a Master Craftsman. I am always checking to see if you have posted a new video. I truly look forward to watching your projects. Keep up the amazing job you do, and keep the videos coming.
You are the woodwork genius on TH-cam. So nice that your back. Keep up the good work ❤

Relaxing and calm voice

Great idea! But I think your dimensions are off. The thickness is usually only 1/4 inch.

It looks great Carl! I do enjoy watching you come up with solutions. It will look fantastic! 😊
Glad to see you back. Hoped all was well as I have really enjoyed following along with this project. Your skills are truly next-level and I look forward to each new video.
Always happy to see your posts. Stay healthy.
Enjoy the process.
Fabulous blend of patience and craftsmanship! Cheers!
Carl, I have have to hand it to you for your planning and meticulous attention to detail. I also have to hand it to your dad for kidding you about the missing mudflap. 😊👍👍👍
Great to hear again from you Carl. What a progress 👍. Eager to see more in the next weeks and months 😎👍

Top notch, great videos and especially attention to detail
One of my few, favorite channels!
Great video! I used to build shepherd huts here in Canada. So far this looks really nice. When I saw you picking up the roofing, I immediately thought: oh, maybe it would be good to wear gloves!
Great job, Carl, lovely to have you back 😁👌👌❤️
So glad to see you back.
Was just thinking how it would be great to have another vid from Carl, and voila! Looking forward to seeing more
Very impressive. Thanks for doing this - and sharing the progress.
Always a delight to see your videos pop up.
Absolutely top class work again Carl. Well done mate. Look forward to seeing the next episode.
For the sheep wool, you can call a sheep farmer, they cut their wool and usually it goes to waste (a shame), it could be free !
Great work !
PS : you can wear gloves for the metal sheet, they are ones that are confortable to wear :)
Your work is a joy to watch.
Impressive, as usual. As is your patience. Thank you 🙏
I really like that design. Looks great.
Always a pleasure - thank you for sharing.
Quality work from a quality workman. Keep it up!
Looks like a coming project could be building a new trailer for the Landy. Great to see you back.
Best YT channel of its genre by a country mile. And about time you got yourself a visa 😉
I'm a big believer in gloves... 😉 Awesome work! Looking forward to progress!
This is the best caravan I ever saw
It was well worth waiting for. Great job.
Great vid, as usual. You do tell, and show, a story well.
..,.and the saga continues! Can't wait for the next.
It's quite astonishing to watch you build the roof structure.
Another great video Carl 👍🏼
...the way the poor old UK is going Carl - best you stay in France! You, along with Mum and Dad, have a great place.
Awesome build, Carl. (C. Rogers, Sparta, Missouri. USA)
It’s good you are back.
Carl fantastic production and content. Keep it up mate great channel.
Glade that you are back, I have been watching Eagles Couch Shop that you told use about. keep up the good work.
These videos never disappoint.
You do very nice work, thanks for showing us.
Beautiful work ❤
in the US we refer to the stick with measuring ticks as a story pole (which I think is a great name for a tool!)
Gorgeous!
There's the difference. Many of us would have gone right through those dogs with the jigsaw. Also the distain for that lump of glue.
Helpful Dad commentary there about mudguards & cuts.
Give this man an IFOR.
Project seems to be going well.
You are so amazingly intelligent! I’m so impressed!
Welcome back Carl. Hope you are feeling well.
Very interesting roof structure! ❤
Great progress keep m coming!
Great job. Thanks for shering. Good advice from a builder from Poland:
wear gloves when working with sheet metal.
Hope you are doing good. Great video as always. Br from Sweden
Eagle Idaho USA in the house. Love the videos. Keep them coming.
I love your glue roller
Great content my friend. Tyson From USA
how can you lose a fender..?
Dad can be a bit of a crank eh..?
watching you work to such an exacting measure is so satisfying.
what an amazing project.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
Nice progress!
Danke für die Videos, die zeigen, wie dein Schäferwagen entsteht.
great progress!
Love the video, keep it up!
8:42 Dad’s everywhere: “You were just driving along, and the guard fell off?” *said with as much disbelief and, and not a little accusation, as possible LOL
Love the work you do.
I bought one of the original jackets and wear it often while doing my own projects. I was able to remove the down on label on the front of the jacket - I prefer unbranded clothes. Looks like the new version has the coto label woven in, making the removal not possible any longer. I’d consider that a step backwards - I like the dark blue but not sure I’d get it fully badged.

Hi Carl, I'm enjoying the build so far. I recently purchased some sheeps wool insulation from Celtic sustainables. I found them quite reasonable price wise and believe they do 75mm thick which should suit your needs. Hope this helps. James.
Monster progress...maybe not in fabrication but in planning and proving concept. Congrats! Sorry to hear of the trailer debacle though.
Nice to see you learned your lesson about gloves on the second attempt 😂
Your dad not being over the mud guard incident sent me 😂😂😂 I hope he's not still in disbelief.
It's gonna be great! 🫡
Regards from Jens, Hanover in Germany
Ouch, that cut!
brilliant work
You could probably source your sheep wool insulation from New Zealand. They also sell it in the US.
Nice work
I worked a summer in a sheet metal shop making heating/cooling ducts. Lots of cuts 😂
Your dads a proper Dude.
This is the best channel on the internet. Been watching for years.
