"Chalk-Aided Design", you ARE one of those funny youtubers. Good job buddy!

I personally know the owner of Kinsman hardware and I can assure you the price he charges is not so he can get rich, in fact, he has to work full-time at another job to keep the awning business viable. It is super expensive to build these in the United States especially at the level of quality he does it at. I can promise if he was able to build and sell these cheaper at the same level of quality he would do so in a heart beat. He is a really awesome person and in it for the passion, not the profit.

Hands down you have the best "Click Bait" I have ever seen I am proud of you.... Your Title is: BEST DIY Awning ... *Do Not Attempt of course I have to "CLICK" on this video to see WHY I should not do it... Bravo Darling... Bravo

If nothing else, you make it clear why those awnings cost as much as they do. That was an impressive build.

That's very, very good. Problem with us DIY'ers is you can't really afford to incrementally improve a design by making it two or five times, so starting off with a known working design is so useful. Thank you. The sewing...the sewing machine, the techniques...perhaps you can do a video on that? (Or is that the next Video?)

The little stand off posts: Sew a circle of thin leather onto the awning where it touches, and on rub areas on the corners to prevent wear through. (boat bimini trick) Wind will wear through if it's used lots otherwise. Crutch/cane feet or folding chair feet are possible alternative sources for feet. Leather: I keep leather from leather furniture/purses etc being scrapped to use for little projects like this. It can be 'saddle stitched' (search term) by hand if you don't have a heavy duty sewing machine. Great build! Thanks for the video!

Your obsession with these (and other accessories) is truly appreciated, as is the effort you put into documenting them and putting them up as open source. I’m going to have to get me a welder one of these days!

Procrastinating paid off big time for me. I was going to copy your last awning build but haven't had time to do it. Glad I waited because now I want this one instead lol.

I love that you added in the metric measurements! I don't even use metric but I hate when I see people use metric but don't add standard and I'm sure people who use metric feel the same way on the other side.

A KZfaq video that actually lives up to it's title. Awesome job on the awning!!!

when trying to mark through a tube get a big nail and use it like a punch. It's easier to see than a light pencil mark

Great video. This is all I can think about now, I have begun pricing it out and will begin here any day. Thank you

Hey Patrick! This is a perfect timing for me! I just bought a tent to do my version of your rooftop tent! I'm going to figure out how to incorporate an awning into it. Thanks for the upload!!

Now take this concept and make it encircle the entire vehicle and you could make a mint on protecting cars from hail storms.

In the middle of building an offroad bicycle camper and this gives me some ideas. I am thinking something very similar, only using carbon fiber tube and pvc plastic board (I often just use cheap plastic cutting boards) in place of conduit and metal plate / sheet to save weight. It also only needs to be about 1/2 to 3/4 the size...9x9 I am thinking.

Wow! Great job -- Thanks for making this and sharing it with us. Yeah, you need the tools and equipment, by it definitely saves a lot of money -- and is custom made!

This is one of the best diy tutorials I’ve seen. Also those ‘markings’ made me feel something

I’m impressed! Good job man.👍

I’m blown away that you don’t have 10x more subscribers. Can’t wait for the next video.

This is awesome. Looks great and seems strong.

Hi Patrick, I've been enjoying your video's . As a member of one of South Africa's biggest churches ,these awnings would make our lives very easy considerin the temperature of Limpopo province. However as usual prices might be a serious obstacle due to the exchange rate between the dollar and the rand.❤❤❤

what an impressive job!!! but mostly tks to think to peoples who don't use inch system really appreciated :)

Good stuff. Will definitely be referring to this when the time comes for me to build my awning. Definitely interested in seeing a video about the fabric and building the cover.

Love your videos your clamshell roof top tent inspired me years ago and i built one myself. It's the project i built that i an most proud of

Ripstop by the roll sells outdoor, performance fabric target to DIYers. They sell long - length zippers. I ordered one that goes around the entire perimeter of my 11 foot hammock. I think about 25 feet. A long zipper like that and some extra remnant fabric, and you have a bag. I will be copying this build when I make my own awning. I like your first version, but I wanted one that was freestanding. V2 looks perfect. I was curious to see how the conduit held up during welding.

Great job looks amazing 😊

Great job mate,cool build!

Great job mate. I love that you can take an idea and create a diy version. It's a lot lighter than the one I built for my trailer.

EXCELENTE !! Gracias por tu tiempo. Por una explicación prolija y dedicada. Desde Argentina gracias por tu tiempo. Juan Carlos

I'm about to build the ladder for my 4runner. I watched your video like 10 times and went to see if you had any new vids up and hell yeah this is awesome, thanks for the inspiration!

Great, great work! Im looking to do this sort of project for a pickup truck. Place a ladder rack for attachment points. Thank you for the thought starters...

Thank you for the great build I definitely want to build one myself

What a clever man you are! Fantastic build 👌🏻👏🏻

Congratulations: this is THE FIRST 20+ min video i watched from beginning to end. Super tempted to make something like this for my crappy little honda civic lol

Awesome build. Also, I caught the bucket in the background... Hail State!

Amazing work, man. Keep it up!

love this design, thank you for sharing. I have that same machine and if it get a little too much dust, lint, etc inside from sewing it jams, feeds weird and fights you. So hopefully the issue was it needed to be cleaned..

I think I might even be able to do this one. Thanks!👍

Add this to my list of projects to build!

Super slick, after you painted it, it looked big box manufactured

awesome invention

love it man .. thanks for sharing ~!

Great Work! Thanks for putting this vid together and for the inspiration.

Классная маркиза у тебя получилась.

Looks great

Very nice and informative, I guess I’ll just buy one.

absolutely brilliant 🤩🤩

This is fantastic. Adding this to my to-do list for July/August

Great awning, I watched your first awning build and started building myself one. I ended up with my awning costing less than $100.°° delivered by end of the week I ordered it. I think it was due to tracking cookies from "Google" search and U-tube for my building awning parts. I was starting to order fabric for awning, when I got the offer E-marketing email. So now I guess I should move on to a 270 awning with all the aluminum I now have. 🤔 My Scamp T.T. could use a low cost but high quality awning. Thanks again for all your hard work and time on your projects and editing of videos then sharing it. Your projects (and others) are effecting the market over-pricing camping gear out of reach for budgets.

Great build!

Thanks!

Bro!!! I’ve been here since before your first model. I’m so glad your upgrading, this is so dope!

Damn.... now I have to build anothe one of your creations! Salute from Brazil!

This was awesome 👏

It's amazing the stuff you come up with!

i love your effort

Omg. I want that for my backyard sliding door

I built your last awning and loving it Thank you

Very slick.

This is freaking Awesome! Great Job!

sharing the measurement in mm was key men ! you did what the others doesn't do! awesome! thank you

Thank you this awesome step by step video. And for the measurements in millimeters 😊

Brilliant work mate. The effort to produce these projects and especially video them is impressive. I swear 24/7 on my projects, don’t know how you manage to stay so upbeat 😅👍

Awesome build. I'd love to replicate it as soon as I can. 👍

This is a fantastic build!! That little leak can be fixed with DIY seam sealer. You may even be able to come up with some kind of flap to cover up the hole around the joint (where water "leaks" onto your rear window)...

Very good job 👍. Bisous de France.

That's badass my guy. Worthy of a sub and like. 👍

Love it. Been waiting to make mine for a while and this gives me the push to get it done! I had planned on making OverlandUnderBudget's awning but going to go this way now. I do love me some EMT

would love to see how this holds up in areas that are prone to more wind

This is such a good design

"I'm not one of those funny KZfaqrs" proceeds to say Chalk Aided Design without skipping a beat. Fantastic build!

Fair play. Well impressed. 👍

seam tapes .. and a few extra fabrics attached using some heavy duty velcro to cover up the drip on the vehicle side.. but yeah.. doable i guess.. :)

C.halk A.ided D.esign - you said u werent funny buddy! 😆😄

Thats pretty good!

"I'm not one of those really funny KZfaqrs..." That's actually a good start! 🤣

Best video title on KZfaq!

Awesome video and build! Love the detail and your use of CAD. It takes a bit of extra time but you can leave any zinc plated metal in a bin/glass/tub/bucket of white vinegar for (time varies between a day to days based on plating thickness) to strip the zinc off so you don't have to worry about zinc fume sickness. The sanding works on exposed surfaces but your still getting fumes from the plating on the areas you can not sand.

One vid and I’m already hooked

Excellent work and commitment! I’m considering making something without the frame, only a 270 tarp with 3 body attachment points and the outer fabric corners supported on telescopic poles and held with guy ropes to tension.

Enjoyed your creative ideas and diys. Cool 😎

A kind of “Top-Cap” as like on a patio umbrella could fix the hinge leak

Fucking wild... I just watched your 270 degree awning video last night. First time I came across your channel. Now just a few hours later you posted a new one. How random is that 😂

Não conhecia seu canal. Você me lembrou Agustín Niemela. Good job from Brasil.

Great Build. Second time I stumbled on your channel. I will subscribe now.

Amazing build! Very well done and I really appreciate the in-depth video. I'll definitely be making one of these after I build my teardrop camper. I think I'll try to add an additional flap of material over the bracket so it doesn't leak as much there. I also wonder if the arms could have been more of a triangular design (widest at the bracket) instead of rectangular to help prevent the arms from sagging a bit more and also help with water shed.

What a fantastic job!

Very cool

Now you need a small cable drive and a button... easy release for when it's raining... ;) Nice build!

😉👍 I really like it! I might have to try and build me one... Thanks for sharing all the measurements, issues, trials, and headaches of fabricating, I know that's the hard part. So it'll make it a lot simpler for me to try to build one sometime by far. I might try to build your diy roof top tent as well. I've got a Chevy Avalanche, and I think I'll build a custom backrack with those both on top. I'm already planning on building myself a custom cargo basket for the roof. Thank you for showing in detail how to weld those washers onto the pipe as well... I'm working on another project... probably today, that I'm plan on doing the same thing. You probably just saved me a lot of headaches and bad welds. I also got a weld a nut inside of a pipe, so that will be fun, lol... 🙄

Brilliant mate.

Smart young man. Now for you to build mine!😎❤️💥

Brilliant build there mate. looks amazing and I like the quickness. love it. material ordered and gonna have a go at 270 awning my camper van.. Peugeot Boxer... Oh! I'm from South Africa..lol! and your intro with the measurements on the swinging struts..... it's kinda tiny.. hahah! you don't use mm there you need to put a cap M 2.1M just thought I'd be one of those Mertic guys you hate,hahaha! otherwise.. beautiful build! Way to go bud!

Great work mate 👍 What a cool channel,thanks for your effort 👌 💪 I like it alot!

A catenary cut along the hemmed edges between arms might also help tension and rain runoff.

Wow! Nice make. Always wished I had taken a welding class!

dude when you pulled it out i was AMAZED. and that's what she said.

Very cool. I have mixed mineral spirits with silicone and rolled that on to similar fabric to water proof it. Worked great.

cool build-you did an awesome job
