As always thank you. Getting these days in like this really make working on it even that much more fun. And documenting the whole things, well its just exponential enjoyment. Can't think of anything better. You got it!!

I did sell the wave and spring for the big buddy. The wave 3 just was not cutting it. I want it to be hot in the camper after a day of skiing and the wave three bearly took the chill out of the air. Granted I did not have all my insulation still (no arctic linear, still some open holes :) But I...

I have been using the camper more and more and it is great! Plus I just ordered a bunch of parts to finish up the galley. Still having a blast both using and building it!

Thanks, man. Glad you appreciate the build. Its been a process for sure. Ski season is just getting started!!!!

Another truck camper build day here at the ranch. Still working on the galley. Making nice progress. The sun is out and it reminds me of summer. Will be out camping again soon, in the meantime I have old video to put together of previous great camping trips.

The heater has sold

Ill bite on this discussion too. I know it has been talked about many times before but actuallylly wrote sailrite about the artic linear. I too am planning on making my own and was planning on useing the evolution block it material https://www.sailrite.com/Evolution-Block-It-Grey-55-Fabric...

Jeff, I like your idea about just a small strip to hang your own curtains that can be swapped out. In my opinion that lack of privacy flap will not hinder anything strucutural. It does help with light control and I think it significantly changes the temp too. I definitely notice when I open the...

Selling my wave 3 heater. Used about 10 times, Has cover I made and legs I made. Thinking $150 is fair. In Boulder, CO. Photos on CL:https://boulder.craigslist.org/rvs/d/camco-olympian-rv-wave-3-lp/6483777662.html Not looking to ship right now. Might change my mind later. - Tim

I do not take myself too seriously. Here is a quick video of my brother and I discussing the rebuild so far. Let me know if you have any questions about the build you would like me to cover. The galley is getting there.

Thanks so much. I've had a few more great weekends since then. Camper is really starting to pay dividends.

Did you take into account the gas you burnt between trip :)

I think we could fit at least two more for cards around the table! I wonder what is the most folks their have been in a FWC. I know that one family on instagram has 2 adults and three kids.

I used 2X3s painted them gloss white to match camper but also put in a little trap door type of thing. Perfect to store a tailgating table. You can see it here: https://youtu.be/joMpC8FSycg?t=109. A lot of people refer to it as the basement, if you can find some functionality for the space...

I told you I do actually use my camper, not just work on it. Here is a fun video from last weekend putting this thing to use. Looking forward to another great weekend. Hope you have something planned too.

See, I swear I use the camper. Here is a photo of photographer friend of ours took. A video from the trip is in the works. Felt great to be out in the camper. Everyone had a great time!

The roof rack looks great. Nice craftsmanship!

Thanks JDP. I wouldn't feel too bad about a lack of progress, I've been working on mine for 2 years now. Buy a camper to get out of house on weekends, spend all weekend in garage working on camper. I guess that counts as out of the house, right :). Labor of love so I do not mind. Its...

SHHHHH, Don't tell me these things, I'll end up building a whole new camper. Kidding of course. Very good point about the stove placement. I am gonna roll the dice on what I have now. I'll be sure to report back here if it ends up being a problem. Working in the shop as we speak.

Hey! Thats not how this works :) We are supposed to share the mistakes equally. Like how I how gluing pieces of plywood together yesterday because I put my sink in the wrong spot :) Glad you continue to enjoy the videos. Stay warm. Thanks ski3pin! It's awesome that you continue to enjoy them. I...

Solar is a great idea. And I love electricity, I will get on it. Shopping online for all the electrical parts today. I have never seen the royal sport body before but I just checked it out. Looks like it was ahead of its time. I could see so many people wanting that these days. The utility of...

Hi All. I am having a grand old time with the galley build. Really great to be making sawdust again. I put together a video of my progress so far, I would estimate ~40% done but maybe I am closer than I think. I am still trying to figure out how to make the actual cabinets (doors, shelves...

My post number 73 talks about my solar pass through. No water leaking to date. I used this gland thing. And VHB stick tape Let me know if you have any questions. - Tim
