      Definitely worth the long nights in the shop finishing it.

    Personally vs frp I prefer the use of 3.6mm ply as you can use a braid nailer to fix in place plus glue. I tend to prefer a 4.way stretch carpet on the walls (green carpet on the ceiling with a blue on the sides always looks sweet imo.

      Interesting idea! Thanks for the insight. The FRP, while a little hard to work with, is SUPER easy to clean, which was important to me. Thanks for watching!

    Excellent video man! I've got a trailer that I'm gonna build your exact floor plan on. Thanks for the awesome vids.

      Awesome! Thank you! Let me know if you have any questions.

    It’s looking good! If you have to cut any more large sheets, you might want to try getting a large panel of solid foam insulation and laying that under the sheet you’re cutting. It’s way easier and much more solid than messing with scrap wood and no worries of the blade hitting cement.

      That's a great idea. If I build another, I'll definitely go that route. Thanks for the tip!

    I like how you saved on weight and glued the FRP to the interior...My cargo trailer is aluminum on steel 'Z' bracing and the inside plywood is half the strength of the wall...

    • @FunkeAdventures
      @FunkeAdventures  2 роки тому +1

      I'm a big fan of the FRP. If you have the supports/insulation for it to be glued to, it is fantastic stuff. Real easy to clean, and no need for paint touch ups.

      Thanks so much for your support Thomas. Sometimes it is hard to find time to edit the episodes, which is why I am so inconsistent with posting. I appreciate those of you supporting me anyway!

    Hey mate! Looks great!
    Would you happen to have a diagram/measurements of the camper?
    Wanting to do this myself and I love the shape/size/layout of yours.
    Cheers from down under!

      Hey! Thanks so much for watching and subscribing. I appreciate the support. If you give me a couple of weeks, I'll try to get a diagram together to help you out. But I can also give you some rough numbers now.
      The camper/trailer base is 5 feet by 8 feet. The back wall that separates the cabin from the galley is set in the perfect spot to fit a queen sized mattress. So that back wall is 80 inches back from the front wall. I would find what mattress you are going to use and then just use the exact measurement of the length of the mattress. The notch in the front upper section is 1 foot down and 1 foot back.
      That gives you a rough layout of dimensions, but I will see what I can do to get you a more detailed explanation in a couple of weeks. Thanks again!

    Would you use FRP For the outside panels as well?

    • @FunkeAdventures
      @FunkeAdventures  Рік тому +1

      Definitely. Some people use a type of FRP called Filon. I would be interested in using that on a future build.

    Word to the wise. Just tilt your mattress up against the wall for storage and put a few moisture absorbers for gun safes in there. You'll thank me later.

    How tall are your sidewalls?

    • @FunkeAdventures
      @FunkeAdventures  2 роки тому

      4 feet tall. The exterior sidewalls are made of 4 x 8 sheets of 3/4 inch plywood. The interior sidewalls are probably 44 inches tall (because of insulation, flooring, and ceiling materials).
