    this is one of the best home made trailers I've seen. beautiful

      This is not homemade, it's custom made, and I think for the price they would have gotten a better deal buying a camper. Seriously.

      BIG JOE 245 I've worked on campers and built cargo campers. The latter are more rugged, by far.

      Bob the builder...can we fix it? Bob the builder yes we can. hahah :D
      I want to chime in that this is very very well done. All your needs are met and the finishes are high end, very good space planning. I wonder if you have tarps to curtain off the shower area off the back? I am not opposed to an outdoor shower!

  • @laurenrizzuto878

    Love everything about this conversion esp the bathroom. It's so much better than trying to find a gas station or go outside at night in the woods of a campground. Really well done!

    Wow, one of the best layouts I’ve seen for cargo trailer conversions! I love the outdoor shower. Really nice use of space. Deep cabinets over your bed foot area is a great idea.

    • @8digitPDX
      @8digitPDX 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Donna G the big advantage to the DIY stuff like that is the home builder tend to pick better but less economical materials in the builds, except the trailers come in much heavier than commercially built camper trailers, especially when compared to newer models which are engineered to be towed by less powerful vehicles.

      @snuffysmiff 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Yeah but a cargo trailer will last decades longer than most any 'air light' sawdust&glue cookie-cutter creation presently on the market-especially if off-roaded.

    • @khm2128
      @khm2128 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      True. Bobby says somewhere in the comments what the dry weight is... less than 3k lbs!!! So it isn't heavy at all.

    Now that is what I call an indoor outdoor potty. You sick people worrying about using a porta pot inside this trailer. Hell when you flush a toilet the vapor from its water goes into the air you breath so much more than the porta pot in this video. Really nice job on this trailer you sir have much talent and skill. Thank You for sharing it and please forgive the naysayers they just have not joined the 20 century yet. Cheers

    Nice work!
    To everyone asking about the cost. I got this!
    He most likely won't tell you, clearly it being this nice, figure the cost of the trailer,materials,and your time. If he gave you a dollar figure everyone would be saying should have just bought one already done.
    And, you all would miss the point. This is the size of trailer he wanted with the features and options that he wanted in a tandem trailer, and he did an outstanding job getting it all together!! No manufacturer makes this,it's his it's unique. That said, stop asking the cost,it's not likely he will tell.

    Not finished yet.
    NEVER PULL A BOX TRAILER WITHOUT A SWAY BAR.... i just rolled my truck and trailer due to a high wind gust compounded by black ice. Almost lost my wife and kids. I've been towing my tool box around for years. I know not to panic brake but it doesn't take much before its just beyond control. Never thought i needed a sway bar for a little 7x14 TA.
    I didn't have one. I'll never do that again.
    This advise may just save your life.
    PS. Nice trailer. I'd like to show you my new one when i get her done. Everyone was jealous of my old one.

  • @meiraloraduncan8953
    @meiraloraduncan8953 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I recently saw one that put the kitchen at the back end on the outside accessed by opening the back doors and it had an awning off the top so you were protected from the weather. It’s a great way to eliminate cooking odors from the sleeping area and not a bad idea if you stay anywhere in bear country. It featured a pullout drawer with a couple of cooktop burners and a mounted microwave/convection combination , a decent size refrigerator with a real freezer on top, loads of cabinets and drawers above and below the countertop providing tons of storage space for everything you need to store dry foods and fresh fruits and vegetables, cooking utensils, dishes, flatware, spices and herbs, pots and pans, it had multiple electrical outlets so you could even plug in a coffee maker, mixer , blender, juicer, crockpot or a instapot thingy. They had a fresh water tank under and behind the cabinets for the sink. It even had pullout cutting boards that extended the amount of counter space. It would be so easy to add a screened room to provide more protection from the elements and bugs by having the top or roof piece slide into a track that was installed along the top edge of the back of the trailer like you do with awnings. Then you rollout or unfold the rest of it and magnets would attach the sides to the trailer and it could have both solid fabric sides or sections that unzip to reveal screened “windows “. I have seen similar add on tent type of rooms for campers and vans which makes outdoor cooking so much nicer and easier when you don’t have to worry about rain or snow or blazing hot sun or freezing temperatures (You could plug in a small heater to warm it up when it gets cold outside.). When my family went camping each summer Dad had a series of canopies that he connected that protected the outdoor kitchen setup next to the picnic table found in most campgrounds. As needed he could add heavy plastic along the sides to keep the rain out and keep us and whatever we were doing or preparing dry. He could even add plastic flooring to prevent muddy walkways between the camper/tent trailer and the cooking/table area. Which he did a number of times especially when all 8 children were on the trip.
