I love how you often used square dimensions for your support members. Keeps the math simple. Also, the extra length of your wood screws will add strength and prevent movement of the screws. Very clean build compared to others I've seen.
Dude keep going, I need to see more of this build. Maybe explain some stuff, give some Dimensions, I'm excited to see where this build is going, so far it looks great...
Ok. Obviously these guys did great work. Absolutely awesome. The majority of builds I've seen on TH-cam really look disposable. This one by far is the most labor intensive, I have no idea what the structure weighs, it does appear to be a little on the heavier side. All in all. Fantastic job guys 👍
Hey mike, thank you so much. We put a lot of effort into this build and we still do.. The camper has has been on the road for around 20'000km and we're doing fine. With the added solar system and compressor coolbox we are looking at around 550kg total. This includes everything besides food, water and clothing.
Looking good - finally some glue😍👍 Are the screws used self taping or are you predrilling? Armaflex is interesting looking, a bit expensive here in canada but environmentally friendly. Cheers
i did not predrill anything so far. The armaflex stuff is really pricey too over here. i used armaflex in my first diy camper too and it really does its job.
Μπράβο παιδιά πολύ καλή δουλειά σκέφτομαι και εγώ να ξεκινήσω να φτιάξω το δικό μου ήθελα να ρωτήσω κάτι.... είναι νόμιμο να το έχεις αυτό πάνω στο αυτοκίνητό σου ? θέλει κάποιο είδους άδεια ? ευχαριστώ πολύ και συνεχίστε καλή δουλειά!!! Κώστας από Ελλάδα..
hey thanks, had to use google translate on this one. no license needed in our country, but i need to follow a few rules. not sure what's that like in greece..
Hey, yes we do. Empty weight (camper, diesel heater, electricals + battery) around 350kg. We then added all the things you need like kitchen boxes, gas cookers, cooler, matress ect, this adds up to around 450kg.
@@TruckHomeSwitzerland thanks! if possible, the other question I had was how did you mount the rings to your camper frame that you used to attach to the truck bed?
It would be too heavy when fully loaded.. but i removed the rear bench and middle seat in the cab, overroll bars, tailgate and trailer hitch. This gives me 130 kg extra. The empty camper is around 360kg.
Nice .. I’m making a truck camper too… yours is coming along nicely

It is looking good. Looking forward to more.

thank you, i will do some explaining about dimensions, future ideas and cost of the build once the camper is finished
Hopp Aarau ! Beau travail et bonnes salutations de la part d'un Welsch ;-)
Keine kältebrucke 👍🏻!
Awesome

Unlike so many other videos, I'm diggin this music. Oh, and nice camper build. 😁
I have a 2007 Dakota and am looking for ideas. Thanks for posting.
Next time, lose the music.
Excelente..
Is that fiberglass with plain paint over the top? Veey few builders use it. I think it would be better than just plywood.

Nice Dakota build. I was wondering why you offset certain beams from each other in the main structure.
The reason to offset certain frame members is simply to have a straight line of sight for the screw to enter, rather than toenailing on an angle.
Your dad is bad ass!

Desculpa minha ignorância, mas é resistente a chuva ? O que eu vi todos até agora e feita de estrutura metálica
Hi. What tool where you using to cut off excess plywood flush to your framework. Thanks. Jase from NZ
It looks like a Oscillating Multi-Tool
This design has a great shape. What’s the approx dry weight?
Thanks. Its gonna be around 300-350kg..
De quel façon tu attache ton campeur à ton camion ?
Part 3 plz
better swiss folk music than what u have in the background.!
For all that wood, you may have to upgrade your brakes and suspension.

Boa noite qual foi o peso final camper terminado
How much did this cost to make?
No glue?

that's going to be heavy
Hola cuál es el grosor de la plancha que ocuparon para revestir el camper ?
8mm
Do you have an end result on the finished weight of of the camper
Hey, yes we do. Empty weight (camper, diesel heater, electricals + battery) around 350kg. We then added all the things you need like kitchen boxes, gas cookers, cooler, matress ect, this adds up to around 450kg.
Hello , could you tell me how heavy it is ? Thank you .
Hey robert, its around 350kg including electrical installation + diesel heater. With matress, camping gear, water ect its around 450kg
What size wood is that
is that 1/2 inch plywood ?
This is 8mm albasia plywood
With enough vibration from road driving, those joints would come loose eventually.
hey @TRUCKHOMESWITZERLAND which beams were 2x3? Thanks!
Hey justin, all beams are 4×4cm besides the long ones going from the back to the end of the cabover section, those are 4×6cm
@@TruckHomeSwitzerland thanks! if possible, the other question I had was how did you mount the rings to your camper frame that you used to attach to the truck bed?
Quanto ficou pesando no final
Is there any plans I can purchase ? I am a 65 year old women and need plans I can build just need plans
For my American friends it’s 775lbs total weight he added to his truck
2x2 framing?
It is 4×4centimeters
what part of the world are you live?
Switzerland
Isn’t it too heavy?
It would be too heavy when fully loaded.. but i removed the rear bench and middle seat in the cab, overroll bars, tailgate and trailer hitch. This gives me 130 kg extra.
The empty camper is around 360kg.
2x3s would be less weight.
Nice work. Music is unbearable though.
It will not last long, the cost of this work is the same as metal
Very annoying bgm.
