SCAMP MODIFICATIONS! (slide show)
Many of my modifications happened in the first two summers of ownership. This slide show contains 71 slides crammed into less than six minutes. BE READY ON THE PAUSE BUTTON if you want a longer look. The mods are NEVER finished for most Scamp owners, we just like to make additions. Many of the mods that we did to “older” Scamps are now included from the factory. I have post all in other places, but the slide show is much more user friendly. If you have questions, please ask in the comments below. Mine is a 2017 SCAMP 16’ deluxe. More mods are already planned for next summer. ENJOY!

Here are the pictures from calendar number 8, it started in 2018 with pictures taken in 2017 traveling in my then new 2017 Scamp16’ RV, it has had its ups and downs, and this was another great year. Yes I know that I spend to much time in South Dakota but I like it there and have a family homesteading history there. You will need to hover over the PAUSE button on the older slide shows! www.yout...

STATE of WISCONSIN HWY CAMERAS

All I know is that these new cameras went up at the same time as the local truck scale was updated on the nearby interstate highway.
SIX miles of the Needles highway in twenty minutes. (With rambling narration.)

The Needles Highway is a spectacular drive through pine and spruce forests and meadows surrounded by birch and aspen, and rugged granite mountains. This video was recorded in late September of 2024, the evening before the great bison (buffalo if you like but you would be wrong) roundup. It includes both Iron Creek and Needles tunnels on the way northwest to Sylvan Lake campground in Custer stat...

See: ua-cam.com/video/d732rPkjqOU/v-deo.html for more information, as the true story continues today. Dances With Wolves is not based on a true story but is rooted in historical events, people, and culture.

Hood Tunnel on the Needles Highway in South Dakota Custer State park

This was the first and last tunnel that I used on my 2024 Custer State park trip. Yes the Scamp 16' with a lift kit fit with no problems, It would not have fit the other tunnels in the park.

Mount Coolidge Lookout Tower (and it IS open to the public)
Переглядів 602 місяці тому
This one is for you Mason. The Mount Coolidge Lookout and Fire Tower was one of the last projects completed by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the late 1930s. The tower rests atop a 6,023-foot peak on the way to Blue Bell Lodge and is still used today as a fire lookout and dispatch center. As the highest point in central Custer State Park, it offers breathtaking 360-degree views from the top...

Looks great Kenny!
I know you!!
Yeah. That one surprised me. Maybe that means there is still hope for me:-)
Pretty darn funny. I liked the way he was laying off staff:-)
How did you like the old fat guy next to the tower on TOWERS DORM? I was 220 lbs in that one.
Thank you
Ain't no corner to pee in a round Barn
Grade "A" milk inspections took care of that at our farm.
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing. Would love to see a longer version.
See you soon Kenny. Couple weeks away. KD9ZDJ Gene.
I'm seriously looking into having a new scamp made a 13 with no bathroom. Do you look at another model camper and think dang I should have got that?
When I ordered mine I got all options that Scamp offered. I would not want to be with out air conditioning or awning. Today I would want a 12 volt compressor refrigerator.
Wow, nice, you reeled in some weldable steel! Im excited! When can i pick it up? lol
It was part of the new handicapped fishing dock so I left it there.
Hey, Kenny 👋 looks like an awesome place to relax! So, really, like your flag the way you did it. Question, will that solar panel run your whole camper? How big is the system and how is it wired up? Also , how do you aim that antenna? Anyhow, enjoy your trip! Be safe.
Solar is a 100 watt panel with regulator and just recharges the RV battery directly. I do not use a lot of electricity so it recharges early in the day with good sun. Batteries are now LiFePo4 and have worked well on the first two trips but the panel will not fully charge them with the current regulator, but voltage stays around 13.3 and all works well.
I ordered a second extension to get the end connections and wires, added to the wires and put the ends on the closet rod. You will need to squeeze the rod ends to shape them for the connections.
Curious on how you made it step by step.
Oh man! An etch a sketch!
Scam
If it would make you feel better, I could double the price.
Hey Kenny, Really great to see your videos! So where is this antenna located, and can you tell me what kind of antenna it is. Also, in the video, on the tower, what is the thing that looks like a coke bottle? Maybe a tower light? Oh, and what is the drone you are using?
Antenna is a Commander Technology 220-2N and the red thing is a incandescent beacon light containing TWO 620 watt 130 volt lamps, one base down and the other base up. Good to hear from you again.
www.qrz.com/db/K9KGB has the location.
Looks great, I would love to have a tower like that someday. I have a 42’ retractable tilt over mast, but it has limitations because it is a mast not a true tower.
This also has its' limitations. There is a reason that ROHN quit making the 25 version.
Ac0gv!total amazing upload~))
TNX At this time I do not know when it will go back up. I have not even assembled the replacement antennas. It was calm today so I lowered it. I'm an old retired guy, I like to take my time.
Very good work there!!! I like it.
The paint job on that Scamp lite is absolutely stunning. Love to see more detailed videos on each of the 2024 Scamps. Any of the 2025 scamps on display? Scamp is supposed to be doing big time upgrades for them next year
I like my Casita, but the real wood interior that you have, is much nicer than my fake wood.
TNX, I had planned to order oak but took one look at the birch and that was the order that I placed.
I tried to use #10 x 1/2" screws and they did not reach but #10 X 3/4" (stainless Philips pan head) held fine.
Congratulations. The place looks great. 👍
Nice video! Thank you!
Neat. Glad to see you are having a good time. W9OQI
Yup
Looks like you wielded that saw just fine. Clever design and great craftsmanship!
Good idea with the closet rod! The EMT conduit on mine is very heavy and 'unwieldy'. :)

Thanks for showing what this machine can do. Hope your hostas enjoy the mulch
This message hope find you well. It can be seen from the video that you're using a landworks machine that's been stuck a couple of times, even stalling. This is something we don’t want to see. We recommend you use EFCUT wood chipper. We have upgraded the structure of the machine so that it will not stall or even stall like the wood chipper in the video. Stalling! That sounds bad, it can reduces work efficiency.
Hey Kenny, what became of the calf? Glad you found him!
He is back with mom in the next video, He was out playing with the others last night. I'll post the link above.
He is so small that he can walk UNDER the fence,
Hell yea brother is that a brute force?
Kawasaki claims it's a 650 Brute Force, I think it's really a 633. I wanted small twin cylinder that I could get.
Lookin good Kenny
Looks like you got a lot accomplished 😊
I noticed how efficient you were with the auto return - stopping it just when you had enough room to put in the log. Most of these videos allow the auto return to go all the way back and they have to wait for it to return to the log. Good job, lots of time-wasting avoided.
I'm old, I do not have that much time to waste.
Nice job
They display their opinion too. Even though it’s your property and can do with it as you wish. But……….that’s not what their legal office , high priced, said. Yours a bad person and there are no words how you have added to the chaos of the planet. L O L😢😂😅…..what a bunch of clowns ❤🎉
That's hilarious!!
Was that from 2023? I was there as well.
Yes, 2023 from the north viewing area. I camped at Angostura campground and because Lame Johnny road was restricted It was a long (early) drive. I already have a reservation for 2024 at Sylvan Lake Campground and that will force me into the southern viewing area. The art fair is the highest quality art fair that I have ever been to.
@ac0gv We were in the north viewing area as well. We chuckled at the people lining up the night before and then we discovered why😆 I made a video about it also. Check it out if interested.
Hey
I’m thinking a slightly heavier hammer might be good, like a small hand sledge.
That would be good, this one is just the one I found while moving the ditch at the boondocking lit.
Jag kan inte tro detta ursprung från Europa. Gpsy tjäna pengar med dragspel i latinamerika. Jag ser aldrig den här musiken i livet. Du vet🇨🇵🇷🇺🇺🇦🇸🇪🇸🇪
Swedish to English via Google I can't believe this origin from Europe. Gpsy earn money with accordion in Latin America. I have never seen this music in my life. You know.
Love it! "37 hours later...." Ha! I feel that! And can vouch for it. This is fantastic, Kenny!
This is epic! Just came across the link to this video in my comments area. Not sure how I missed it! Absolutely love seeing this! Great job! The gold bars are an awesome touch!
Nothing bad about a new investment. Yes things are all made to last ONLY ENOUGH to get use to its features. Good quality and lots to enjoy.
My Iphone Xr was 4 y and 11 M old, this one is fantastic, and being an old model saved me some money. AT&T says they are made to last THREE years. K
How friggin awsome🐴
You need to put that thing in big bucket, then it'll catch the timber as it's cut and save you having to bend down so often 👍
I made one out of an old axe head and a plate of steel. I keep it in a bucket so I can't fall on it. The bucket does work well for catching splits and slivery bits.
Bluetooth device to control a camera? Could have a wrist strap to wear? Total guess
Anthony from Larino, interesting saloon, if possible in next video I 'd like to see also an ancient photo of John Waine. Ciao from Italy.
That was cool!
Wonderfoul clock, we had one similar in the office of Larino Station. Interesting the original star, Ciao from Anthony, Italy.
