A friend of mine asked me a few weeks ago if I would be interested in taking on a project for his vehicle. He wanted some storage cupboards and drawers in the rear of his SUV and also wanted a fold-up bed. I told him that in order for me to build this for him, that I would need the vehicle...

After making drawings of the Fordson tractor I started with making a pattern for a VW bulli. Ducky helped with making a compleet SketchUp drawing. If you want to build your own you can purchase the pattern on my website. The first tree chaptors you can download for free. This build is much...

The Midland County Salvation Army Emergency Communications Vehicle is basically a camper fitted with radios and antennas for emergency communications. The communications vehicle is outfitted by the Midland Amateur Radio Club, another of my too many hobbies. So they asked if I could come up...

VW Camper was made out of Walnut, Oak and Maple.

sold our large camper, bought a very small one. really like the basic set up but there was next to zero storage, and what there is inconvenient to access. the little dinette storage is under the seats. but to get to it, you have to remove the cushions and a piece of luan. get what you want, put...

I built this classic style teardrop trailer on a 4×8 ft cargo trailer frame. I cut the sides each from a single sheet of plywood and finished them before I began any other assembly. I also cut the holes for the doors at this time. The bottom was a thin sheet of plywood that I sprayed a...

Its taken over a year on and off but its finally, mostly, done. Started with a rotten popup camper I got for free. Its far from perfect but I think it's pretty cool and will sure beat a tent particularly on those rainy nights.

A few weeks ago the wife and I purchased a new aluminum cargo trailer. We had a few amenities put on it at the factory; awning, fan, upgraded wheel rims, window, to name a few. Then I brought it home and began to convert it. I started by removing all the interior and insulating it with pink foam...

Mary and I made a decision to build a teardrop trailer on February 15th. My detailed blog is at the Teardrops 'n Tiny Travel Trailers forum. Mary next to the Little Guy Silver Shadow 5' x 10' we checked out to confirm we would be comfortable in a teardrop. A photo from Cool Tears and...

This is my first Teardrop project. It's a hybrid of my love for strip-built boats, and, at the time, new fascination with tiny campers. The walls are maple ply with Ash and Mahagony detailing. The roof is about 300 cedar strips. The whole shell is encapsulated in fiberglass/epoxy, like a boat...

A couple weeks ago the wife came to me stating, "That old couch/sleeper in the camper has to go." "Why can't we have a dinette?" I like that "We" stuff…Means "Me, myself and I" will build it for her. But as long as she does the sewing, I'll do it. And that was our deal. Here's the problem...
