This looks like a nice design for a shelter for a homeless person - particularly in an encampment of many similar shelters with community facilities like toilets, showers, and a dining hall with kitchen facilities!

I've got to admit that I spent the first half of the video criticizing how you were building your camper. Then I realized that I'm the one sitting home watching KZfaq videos and you are the one who had a vision, acted on it, and are now enjoying the outdoors. Good for you, man!

You have a quiet soul just like Steve Wallis. Your videos are just as relaxing and thank you for not overlaying loud music. I love hearing the sound of leaves while you walk thru the woods.

I am 75 yrs but I just really enjoyed sitting here tinight watching you build your little camper. You are so nice.

The world needs more good souls like this young man. Thank you for sharing your work.

Great concept, solid work. If you ever go to make a Cheese shack ver 2.0, try a PVC frame on the wooden base to cut down weight. And 8"-10" kids bike tires would definitely be easier to pull over the terrain. You can also get surplus shoulder straps from military back packs to rig up a harness to pull it so your hands could remain free on the trail.

This small shelter is absolutely amazing. He did an excellent job building this. I love it .

As an old man, I’m not easily impressed by young whipper snappers. You my friend are an exception! Good job!

I'm a guy who kept building tree houses well into my forties. Fabricating this mini pull along camper is a stroke of genius! Well done, brother!

Love the cheese box. Just a tip if you’re going to take it out for the winter and it’s gonna be snowing you may wanna enhance the roof a bit maybe with some additional one by twos spread out every 12 inches just so The weight of any snow build up during the night doesn’t tear your outer structure

I can tell you're (no offense intended) more of a "nerd", than a carpenter/builder. But you actually did a REALLY good job with this! Using 4x4's (for more stability in the corners), and all that layering on the floor, was a GOOD call! As someone who's spent a LOT of nights sleeping outdoors under the stars, I can DEFINITELY tell you that the distance you're going to be from the ground, as well as all that extra insulating, WILL pay off! Both of THOSE factors are going to be the KEY to keeping you more comfortable and warm even in REALLY cold weather , than anything else you could've done (this side of making sure the wind don't hit you)! You've actually made me wanna build one now! 😆

Neat build. You should check out foamy campers and poor man's fiberglass (PMF). You could cut the weight quite a bit over the heavy pressure treated wood. Regular wall studs would save weight over P.T. as well. Some salvaged bicycle wheels would make it easier to pull over uneven terrain.

All camper structures go through changes with use please post your modifications as they happen. Enjoyed your build with simple directions, the biggest change I would make is in the roof , it would have to be curved, slanted or peaked, my next change would be some kind of window and finally some ventilation. The Cheese Box is beautiful and warm, thanks for sharing.

Love this little shelter. Didn't know about the metal things for joining timber, a real game changer, makes building so much easier. A window would be good to look out of in the morning, not hard to add a couple of struts to attach a frame to. You could attach insect mesh with velcro so you could open a little shutter similar to your door and hold it out with a rod.

Small word of advice, get another strip of the super cheese fabric about 4 inches wider than the door opening and that is the same height as the camping box, loosen the screws that are holding the top down above the door, slide the fabric up under the roofing material so that it drapes down and covers the door and gives you 2 inches of material both sides of the door opening, move the strips at the side of the door opening to the inner of the door opening to stop the door opening inward, remove the door handle and put a strip of wood in to hold the flap at the bottom and replace the handle, then cut the super cheese material so that you have 2 inches below the opening.

Helpful hint: When using a lantern, hold it out to your side instead of in front of you. The light will spread for visual coverage and you will have less light blindness while looking ahead. This is like sitting around a fire. You can see everything before you and across the fire but when you get up and walk away you realize the fire lights a bigger area. Light blindness causes your pupils to shrink which lets in less light, thus reducing your vision. Experiment by showing your kids how this works. You will be a magic parent for a few moments!

Bigger wheels, a flap over the door to keep out the rain, an outside light, and reflectors on your cheese doodle to find it in the dark by flashlight.

I love the shelter. If I made one, just because I can't pull a lot of weight, I'd try to use 2 by 4s or angle iron maybe as it's lighter. Solid warm structure you have. So many homeless people should be given those. It's tall enough for a small camp chair without legs and a fold down table to eat dinner at, watch movies, prepare food. I like it.

Wow I've done home remodeling for years and didn't know those corner braces even existed. Thanks for the info. One suggestion for cold weather camping. I would have added a layer of light weight cork between the 2 layers of sheeting on the floor. Have fun with your mini-cabin.

In the beginning, I kept thinking, no way, you can’t do that. But I stayed with it and watched the whole video and I’ve got to say, great job!👍 I love the cheese box and it turns out that I love everything you did on it. I also loved your narration! You have such a positive can-do attitude that is so incredibly enjoyable. I definitely would’ve put on much taller wheels so it would be easy to pull. here’s an idea for wheels, buy an old wheelchair from a thrift store or an estate auction for about 10 bucks. Two big back wheels and two turning wheels.
