I love how Simone just shows up in the video like she lives there
as far as i know shes over for a visist and i bet a video :D
And then lies down and drives the trailer 😂
The most Simone drive-by appearance
Laura, there seem to be scammers in the comments who promise prizes, I have reported one today
@@monikawiedmann8594 I think she addressed this. Report report report! Laura can't do a lot because it's a TH-cam problem. But she's not on SnapChat or Telegram or any of those things.
@@RetroMario I appreciate that, I did report it, but I thought it potentially helpful to mention it
You could put hold downs on the trailer for the Aluminum Boxes. Then have boxes loaded for different type work. i.e. wood, metal and measurement boxes. Load the trailer with the boxes you need.
Like Thunderbird 2!
My first thought after I saw the trailer was "The boxes are gonna fit perfectly, right?" and BOOM they do. Awesome purchase, Laura!
They must be the standard 40*60 cm, made to fit the euro-pallet at 2x2. The cargo bike reflects that. It can't be easily made to fit the whole 80cm wide pallet, though, because 80cm is also some legal limit + it fits most doors.
Make a list of every tool you've carried back and forth between houses. Write down every tool you use in the next 2 weeks and put a hash mark for every time you use it.
this! I used this method to pare down my travel packing each trip until it’s only a small bag with the most-missed items
Yeesss!
@@lisetteness8244 I just have 2 of the things I take on every trip so I don't have to think about packing the most essentials, except prescriptions of course.
I love Laura's and Simone's energy together, they just fit so well for this happy building videos, so much joy and silliness while also getting stuff done, just seeing them enjoying the little car was so much fun
I'm so happy I found Laura via the house restoration videos - she's one of my favorite makers on TH-cam now. you can always tell how energized she is by engineering solutions like this.
Same!
I found her thanks to Adam Savage 😁
My bicycle group in the States, uses a Cargo Carla trailer for a mobile DJ stand. You may need to get another :)
I'm picturing a train of trailers behind Laura's ebike :)
Don't forget to grease that ball joint in the hitch - it serves the same function as a fifth wheel in a semi trailer.
Would it also be good idea to add back-up chains incase hitch clamp fail or come loose? 🤔
@@alsanova Not a bad idea. Might be a better idea to rig it so the trailer hits the breaks if it comes loose.
Now I want to see Laura organize chariot races using these trailers.
1920s Australians: motorcycle chariot racing
2020s Laura and Simone: electric bicycle chariot racing
That was my first thought as well. Time to reopen the Circus Maximus!
That trailer looks like it has amazing potential! So many cool options for a mobile workshop. Don't forget a sidecar for Smudo!
On the trolley, you definitely need a miniature air compressor. While it does require power, it can do so much, from inflating tires to driving a nail gun. Also, the saw could be set-up like an old sewing machine. Open the top which becomes the out-feed table, raise the blade and go. And maybe have some side-mounted removable tool boxes where you could select to put either mechanical tools or wood working tools. And maybe add a "party in a box" option 😁
I've had my ebike for just over a year now and didn't know that I needed a carlacargo trailer until now. Thank you, Laura. This changes everything. lol
I think the aluminum box concept is going to be cool. The basic set of tools is always there. You can swap out a box of wood working tools for a box of mechanical items. You might consider the layout so that you can use part of the set up as a bench or workplace.
“Stand where it says no standing!”
Perfect 😊
All I'm picturing is a giant collapsing toolbox, with the aluminum boxes as the tiers.
Love your stuff Laura
Laura is a badass, so it only makes sense she is steering the trailer like a chariot :D
And Simone is the best kind of friend, getting excited over the craziest stuff with you!
5: Putting the Bike Repair Kit on the Trailer
4: Construct a barbecue bar on the trailer
3: Build a music DJ machine on the trailer
2: Build a small science lab on a trailer
1: Build a wood processing module on the trailer
The above is my idea, please refer to
6: Build a tiny tiny home on the Trailer
was about to write the bbq-idea.
So basically a system where you have the barebones trailer and then you have modules that you put on top.
You forgot the neon lights
Build a swimming pool on the trailer!
"I'm just gonna quickly weld on an adapter", such a Laura thing! I LOVE IT!
There's only one word that describes this week's video, GEIL!
I'm actually planning a build for a mobile electronics workshop that I'm planning on bringing to Catskill Maker Camp this year. As soon as I saw this video I thought "What would Laura include?" and I forgot all about needing to add speakers for music!
I absolutely LOVE this project. I can not wait to see how it progresses
It great to see that crazy look it Laura’s eyes as the wheels in her head are spinning
❤
Wow! I’ve never seen anything like this! You will have a lot of fun making it into YOUR special workshop.
For our projects we had a whole Caddy filled. Lots of tools, materials/room for materials. Storage. You named it all Laura. No doubt you'll have a lot of fun tinkering on this little cart
That would be the easy and practical solution, but not very "Laura" :-)
For sure put one of those small wine bottle chillers it does a bottle at a time and can be used for beer no need for a huge cooler think little🥰🙂
As a workbench it might be worth considering a Paulk style workbench. It could still function as your lockable lid with a little tweaking.
This has serious potential, Laura! If you design everything around the boxes, make them work as shelfs/drawers, you can have a working surface on top and then you just need to adapt the tools that you want/need to those boxes, making them interchangeable. I started out thinking it was going to be a cool, but not useful, gadget, but now I’m sold! Duuuude!!
Excuse me, Laura, I see two problems, 1) it's the rain, having a mobile workshop without a roof makes you look susceptible to the fact that when it rains the tools get wet and rust, 2) it's theft or loss of tools, the movement of the trailer could cause some items to drop or be lost, and can be easily extracted at some stoplight. I think that while it sounds like an interesting idea, you might have to think of the worst case scenario to make something useful to you that doesn't get lost or stolen.
My two thoughts, exactly. But so cool!
Absolut krasser Hänger 😮
This would be perfect for my beekeeping Business, i could Take 8-10 hives directly to the fields where the most honey could be harvested by my 🐝🐝🐝
As you were talking about the table saw, I looked over at my sewing machine cabinet and thought of a folding top that could extend work surface for larger boards. Then you went there and I smiled big. Then you took it to a butterfly top and I squee'd (a 58 year old man squeeing is one of the most joyful sounds ever!). I have no clue how it's going to look when it's finished, but I know it will be beautiful and very functional. Thanks for the fun and exciting continuing saga!
Is it more metal boxes?.
Obviously
Always. They are so versatile.
My grandpa spent his summers as a mobile knife/chainsaw sharpener on a bike, it was the coolest thing but it was definitely limited by how much he could carry. He'd have been completely jealous of this!
This video has everything I need to start the week.
✅Laura being hyped
✅Electric vehicles
✅All of Laura's crew having silly fun
✅Smudo takes a ride with Felix
✅Simone
✅Laura singing
✅"Gail" being said a million times and each time it's more enthusiastic!
(edit)
✅I forgot: Whoever chose the music for the adapter installation montage, needs a raise. This is absolutely groovy!

What a great idea.! I've had an ebike for a few years now, and I've never thought of using it this way.
If you bring any power tools that need plugs, you may want to consider adding a small gas generator like a Yamaha 2600C to power them. Battery powered tools are wonderful until the battery dies, and you don't have a way to recharge them.
Loving the Meow Wolf hat. It's wonderful seeing artists supporting other artists.
So: slide on/slide off modular decks with different fittings for various containers to lock to (Tannos) or fit between (Aluminium boxes) or complete setups such as a mini-bar with a cooler and an optional BBQ. Some tubes/sockets at the corners so you can put plastic pipe risers in to support a fabric roof if its too sunny or rainy (Medieval market booth). Definitely the 'butterfly' hinged top deck to keep everything in the boxes from bouncing out, and put a lock on it so no one can 'help themselves' to the contents without a key. You can hinge 2-4 swing out triangular supports to the trailer for when the deck is unfolded.
Das ist dein Ding, wirkklich und deswegen bist du so WOOOOOW. Du gehst voll auf in so einer Situation.
Und das finde ich voll cool - echt! Das ist so cool zum zuschauen am liebsten würde ich dir mithelfen.
Mach weiterhin so coole Videos und ich werde sie mir anschauen.
(1) test theoretical weight allowances with current configuration on HILLS before you start.
(2) keep center-of-gravity low
@MrsLauraKampf oh, I'm so excited. Just give me your transit, branch, and account number and I'll reach out.
Basic automotive tools. Rachet set. Crescent wrench. Pliers set. Vice grips. Clamps. Paracord. Basic electrical. Strippers. Meter. Wire. Test leads with clips. Solder iron. Power inverter. Battery. Cooler for lunch/drinks.
That braking power is insane! Just amazing. Sooo much excitement and great adventures to come! Laura, your channel just keeps getting better!
Make sure the trailer is lockable to the bike, how about solar panel to recharge the batteries? Need more tail lights so people will not run into you; of course all LEDs. Just make sure that it's all lockable and weather proof.
She also needs a slide out camper along the lines of what Paul Elkins makes.
@MrsLauraKampf Lucky winner??? For what? Sorry but I'm lost here.
@MrsLauraKampf I'm just thrilled that you even took time to read my comment. I'm talking to "The Laura Kampf".... yahoo!!
I'm thinking a modular setup, with the boxes in mind. Have a basic frame that holds a variety of configurations, and have some boxes ready to go with different sets of tools. Leave space for materials and you're set!
You should have “woodworking box”, “the welding box” and so on. And add whatever boxes are needed on each case (e.g. usually don’t bring the welding box to the new house)
What an awesome concept! Many awesome concepts, actually. The bike trailer, the mobile workshop, the suitcase battery... all very cool. My main suggestion for stuff to bring is a first-aid/emergency roadside kit. I also recommend a loading ramp, a horn that can go either "meep meep" or play "Ride of the Valkyries," and a little sign on the back that says "If you can read this, you're too close to me." Also, a gladius to hold when you ride in it, just to complete the post-apocalyptic doom chariot look.
How exciting ... can't wait to see the transformation 🎉
I love to follow you in your thought process when conceiving new stuff! I'm currently not able to do much due to my housing situation but your videos help me greatly keeping my brain active and curious! 🤘
First Aid Kit .. this is a great project, good luck
I can't wait to see this finished.
I'm in the states, Florida. In my area, contractors & handyman services, most have enclosed trailers they bring to jobs with tools of their trade. They can have what they need on site, extra screws, nails, etc. Everything is enclosed so protected from the weather, theft, don't have to unpack and reload each day, just restock as necessary. They have shelves, racks on both sides and usually keep the middle open for hauling larger materials. Some are pretty darn cool the way they're set up.
Yay! I love it! Well done!! Butterfly open! Yes!❤
This video must have the Carla Cargo sales department absolutely giddy with anticipation. 😃
I don't drive cars. I just ride a bike. Good solution for mobile atelier. Big hug from Brazil. Tks, N
@MrsLauraKampf Is it truth? Your videos I consider gifts already, is there still something else?🌹
@LauraKampf
It’s so wonderful to see your passion!
Love,
Jen
That is just the coolest thing, wowza. I love it. And I KNEW aluminum boxes would figure - yay! :D The butterfly-opening top/lid is perfect for protection/anti-theft and doubling your work space.
Every mobile workshop needs....DUCT TAPE! :D Also called 100-MPH Tape because it was used during the Vietnam War to repair helicopter rotor blades, and could withstand winds up to 100 miles per hour (160kph).
I'm so excited for this!
That is so cool! All you need is a universal joint at the steering point and you can easily sit in the back and steer without having to make crazy swings with the handle.
So much fun to watch what you do!
You all have so much fun!😊
When I saw Laura riding on the trailer one thing come to my mind- Laura The Gladiator!!!
@MrsLauraKampf WOW 😁 I wasn’t expecting that 😁😁😁 How can I get in contact with you?
Love watching you brainstorm and problem solve for a project! Bravo to your sponsors too.
Hammer, chisel, level. Pencil, scribe, tape measure, Leatherman....you have SO many tools, good luck. I'd do an aluminum box for different stages: a demolition box, a building box, a finishing box, a painting box.
I think most people watching would like to hang out with Laura and her team cause they just have soooo much fun!!
Hugs from 🇨🇦
Congratulations! on the new mobile workshop Laura! i'm sure you will come up with some great ideas :) Thanks for sharing the video with us!💖😎👍JP
Pretty darn cool. Awaiting developments!
This is the coolest idea ever ❤❤❤
And I can't wait for the contraction!!!
Gonna need that "oh yes!" from Felix at @11:45 on deck for all satisfying brainstorming sessions in the future!
i drove that trailer at velo berlin, absolutely amazing how easy it was!
Boah ich liebe dieses Video!!! Ich komm aus dem Grinsen nicht mehr raus weil genau an diesem Traum arbeite ich auch schon, viel bis jetzt aber nur im Kopf. Ich habe ein Hinterher Anhänger in sehr groß aber die Carla Cargo machen mich auch schon ne Weile an und da diese in der Handwagenfunkion auch noch unterstützen, booom so many possibilities!!! Der Moment bei Minute 12:20, »so inspiring« hab ich mega gefühlt. Tausend Ideen und es ist immer wieder schön zu sehen wie du dran arbeitest deine Träume und Ideen zu verwirklichen auf eine so positive, inspirierende Art die ich persönlich auch sehr nachhaltig finde.. Dinge wo man schwer beschreiben kann! Ich fange gerade selbst bei uns den Keller als Werkstatt auszubauen und versuche mich als gelernter Zimmermann mal mehr Richtung Schreinern, aber ich will auch Blechnern und Schweißen und bissl Basic Elektronik wäre auch noch ganz nice... es hört nie auf aber das ist schön und es gibt immer was zu entdecken. Toll wie du andere mit deiner Begeisterung anstecken kannst, you are sooooo inspiring!❤
Meow Wolf! Represent. Woot woot! And William Ellery! Dingo Dango! 🎉
Tire gauge. Tow strap. Rachet straps. Compass. Small bottle jack. Bungie chords. Hand broom. Waste/trash container. Folding saw horses 2. Tape measures. Square. Speed square. Yard stick. Jig saw. Sawsall. Hammer drill.
I love seeing Simone and puppies! This is a cool cart, and it is incredibly cool with the electric bike. I am excited to see it transform. Have a great day!
watching your videos on Sunday is my favorite thing!!
My two favorite youtubers in one video. Love the videos with Simone so much.
How exciting!
I love how "geil" doesn't get translated. It's just geil. GEIL!
Smudo looked like the King he is being transported around by his loyal subjects!
i loved this video - anytime you & the team are having so much fun your laughter and excitement is delightful. and very cool hearing inspiration keep coming, brainstorming with felix. finally the jacket you designed looks really great and comfortable.
Oh! I didn't even realize this video was brand new when I started watching it. Now I know my Sunday mornings come with cool new Laura videos! Awesome!
Love watching your enthusiasm! Also loved watching you and Simone playing with it.
This is such a cool idea ❤ one thing I thought immediately when you started naming tools was "you're gonna need a charging station". It would probably be fine if you were at the house but maybe down the road you might want to take it somewhere that doesn't have power
Using your aluminum boxes, you might be able to make some portions of this modular. In other words, certain items could be swapped out/in depending on the job. You keep some core tools on it all the time, then add a module for extended woodworking or metalworking or electrical tools. Maybe a container for extra battery power in case you are not near outlets. Maybe you could make a mini DJ unit with speakers and lights built in? Maybe a portable grill? Geez now you got me excited too! 🙂. OK I just looked at the other comments and see most of my ideas already in there. Looks like we are all excited to see what you do with this!
Hi Laura, what a great piece of gear. When thinking about your top I thought of a side and lid combined. It would be hinged along a side so you have a bench. If you want more flip the whole side and top out on the other side. You would have a huge work top and when locked it locks down. The larger work surface would need legs too. Then there is weight, Aluminium framing may help there. Your Aluminium crates were such a great find and you will be creating all sorts of things from them. I enjoy your enthusiasm and humour. Keep up the great work.
i made a wagon kind of like this, still working on the battery part of it. I call it the Chooch Wagon!
That bit with the tablesaw work surface made me think of your portable camping tables
What cool things you come up with. Your ideas just keep on coming. Love these videos.And so does my family 😊
Such a beautiful trailer! Please be mindful of vibrations and water/dust that will impact your tools and metal much more/differently than in your workshop. Especially vibrations impacting electronics. Lastly, get a solid set of different length/hook bungees. You can never have enough bungees!
This is so awesome!
I love the concept!!
Great idea! I would keep it modular. The first Module should hold your basic tool set. The second one for e.g. metal works, the third for constructive wood works and so on. Don't forget a module for coffee station, cool drinks and bbq. Systainer drawers! And storage for long material.
Endless possibilities...
I could watch all of you play with the trailer for another 30 minutes! 😂 Looking forward to watching it transform! ❤
👍 I love how enthusiastic you get with your new projects! It encourages me to get off my buttock & get busy with my own projects! Thanks! 😎
@MrsLauraKampf yes, what would you have for me? You're already a blessing by inspiring me! 😁
I've drooled for that bike cargo trailer since I first saw that it is a thing that exists! Excited to see what you create in and around it.
I really love new modes of transport. This is so cool.
It's like a bakfiets on steroids!
Laura your life is idyllic. Thank you for sharing it. ❤
Really cool trailer and idea! Cant wait to see what you come up with! Hi @Felix
I think the most important thing, beyond the tools for the mobile workshop, would be a source of power to those tools. Maybe a battery case with a mobile solar panel, or something like that. I'll keep watching to see the developments. Thanks for sharing those experiences.
@MrsLauraKampf 😍❤
Cool trailer!! Make your fold out top supports attach to the trailer. Hauling large flat things would be easy!! Put a two piece "cage" on top when everything is folded up. Use the cage for loose items and for securing the contents below.....when you are in public! Good luck!!!
I don't have the kind of workshop and hobbies you have, but what I would pick based on the things I have found myself needing over the years for like, routine stuff at home:
1. tools for measuring - measuring tape, ruler/straight-edge, protractor/angle transfer tool, etc.
2. tools for cutting - wood saw, metal saw, electric saw, angle grinder
3. tools for making holes - drill with bits (wood, metal, masonry, and step drill bits)
4. tools for (dis)assembling - screwdrivers, wrenches
5. tools for joining - hammers, welder, soldering iron
6. consumables - screws, nails, bolts and washers, metal stock, wood stock, pipes, cables, sockets, plugs, lamps, bulbs
one of your very best projects. i love it
that hitch needs a security line, like any trailer hitch has. just a rope and a biner would do
What an awesome trailer !
