Hey .... As a carpenter of 27 years experience, I can say that you have done an excellent job !!! From the planning out, placement of the mechanicals, to the attention of detail on the finish, .... Every step of the way, it shows !! I am nearing 63 yrs of age, and are planning a cargo trailer build of my own .... I have watched hundreds of You Tube vids on the subject, and seen maybe a dozen cargo builds in person, along the way .... And honestly, yours has to be in the top 5 (I like practical, and simplicity.....) Easy to replace, when an appliance fails ... (which is enevitable, the way things are made these days ...) "Thanks for posting this, ... Reguards, Eric 👌👍👍👍

Look for a "Bar sink." The guy at humble road van builds is nuts over the sink he installs in his vans. He says it's the biggest one he can get into his counters. I'm not sure how deep they are but they are more narrow than yours. Watch that channel for any amount of time and you know that guy is an absolute perfectionist. So, if it's good enough for him...

The cabinets look great. Like the back slash too The ramp may be heavy to hang as a door/awning. I would like a spot to sit in the camper, although most times one maybe in a lawn chair outside. Maybe the best looking dyi that I have seen.

for solar, the controller should auto stop charging the batteries. double check your system to see if it does that (it should). This means you just leave it and forget about it.

@izifaddag822110 ай бұрын
Hi Brian. There is much about your camper that I like. I built the kitchen very similarly. I squared off the triangle same as you with the fridge in the middle on the floor, no drawer. After I raised the floor level up by laying a floating wood floor the fridge often touches and scrapes. Your design is noted!! Because I did not know about thermal bridging when I built the darn thing the walls get red hot where the steel struts are. It transfers that to the inside and my poor 5k AC unit has a devil of a time keeping the place cool. I redid the ceiling this spring with cedar planking and did double insulate defeating the thermal bridging. That worked very well. I had to move into mine on memorial day 2019. No choice. I was living in a failing semi truck and had to move. The AC was the first thing I installed and I had very little idea what I was doing. I used a 5 k and should have used a 6 k. My hot air outlet is not big enough and has no fan. The inlet is fine and doesn't need a fan. I am now trying to figure out an awning. I want to know about yours and also what fan do you recommend for both the fridge exhaust and the AC exhaust. I hope you have time to reply. I have subbed and I look forward to seeing your AC install videos.
@BRIANPAVLICK10 ай бұрын
I used simple 4 " computer fans that I purchased from Amazon. I will be doing another video on the AC alone because lots of people are interested in how I set mine up.
@izifaddag822110 ай бұрын
@@BRIANPAVLICK Thanks for the response and I will do the same thing. In the spring this year I made massive upgrades to my home. Next year it will be the AC / kitchen area. Fans will be going in. I have started using aluminium profile. I built a solar rack trimming the roof of my camper. I am going to use that to attach some sort of awning. I also plan on completely redoing the drawers and generator slide on my pick up truck again with aluminium not wood. The wood I have found is a pain to work with always twisting and rotting just where you don't expect it. Anyway I look forward to your AC install video.

Hey man, nice presentation. Thanks for sharing your experiences, .. which many of us don't have, of course. I don't know how much more work & expense it would be .. but, something about folding up the bed area, if at all possible .. I probably would do, to allow for a chair-like set-up. But .. your space restriction is very real.

I am in love with this CTC. You have accomplished what my goal is to do with my CTC. I would love for you to see my CTC and give me your input. I am a solo female camper and I want/need mine to be self contained and easy access to the things that might need to be changed out (AC, heat, Fridge, microwave, etc). I love how your solar power is color coded toggle switches inside. I love the roll up blackout curtains with the magnets down to the gray water sink dump container. I also have a ramp on mine that I would like to flip. Just need to fine a welder locally that can do the job. I am in Northwest Georgia.

For me, the bed could have folded into a couch with table, facing a window or the dining area. The back "storage" under the bed, used a lot of space,(about 6 feet X 6 feet of floor space), that could have been inside headroom/camper space, and still allow above cabinet storage along the walls. For me, a camper this size could never need this much storage at the cost of sitting and table room. Having storage is great, but not at the cost of camper space. That is what totes, trunks, roof racks, tool boxes, truck beds, or back of SUVs' are for. A well built, highly detailed, storage unit with a bed. *BUT*, This is one of the most solid, well built campers I have ever seen. Camping styles are as different as the people that camp. You couldn't pick a better built camper if this one fits your style.

Exactly what I was thinking, just like my Volkswagen camper had a sofa that converted into a bed and it was very comfortable. That would give him a large area to watch TV on the sofa and maybe even have a desk on a pedestal table.
