I love the way that he used an old gun case to house the shower unit.

People criticized this??? This is brilliant. Considering how much other people are charging for completed units, this is an excellent alternative. Plus, you kept it fairly simple. I worked as a carpenter for years (mostly building houses, high rises, and such) and I know that some of the tools we use can be intimidating to some people. I think your videos are excellent at showing people they can do it themselves. And bonus points for being such a great dad!!!!

I work in the RV industry and to be honest, Im disgusted at what they roll off the floor these days - nothing but overpriced pieces of junk and for some of them, they expect you to live in these - not going to happen. I really liked your design and how you made maximum use of available space, the shower was crazy but great. I will definitely be heading to your page to see more of your work.

Sir, you did an amazing job! Can't wait to see your next project!

A lot of very clever solutions, great inspiration for everybody going to build similar trailer. Thank you!

Outstanding design and quality of manufacture. A work of art and incredibly practical. Nice job!

My hat off for this master piece! Brilliant idea for your entire family!

Love that it’s one off with plenty of ingenuity, great build! Thanks for sharing

I think that is a terrific trailer. Well built, well throughout and done by yourself. Congratulations and I Love it.

Nicely shot and edited. A relative rarity in this field. Kudos to you on the build (and the videos).

That's awesome! The kids must love it! I'd buy that over a premade anyday.

Very beautifully made. Especially the kitchen, simple and neat. The bow case used for the shower curtain was brilliant!

This is incredible! I love the pop top idea. I am hoping to begin building a teardrop to sleep myself and my 3 kids. This pop top idea could create a lot more options for me. Thank you for sharing.

Bloody awesome... great set up and design ... well done ...

The shower is the best idea I’ve seen for diy campers. Great job. Very inspiring!

Extremely impressed it looks fantastic

Man this thing is sick. I was going to build one for my family but after seeing this I’ll gladly buy the plans. Good job!

Great build and so inspiring - well done!

What a beauty! Nice work!

Love your build, and thoughtful guy. Family comes first, and that is they way it should be.

Nice overall, and the use of window latches in other than originally intended places is clever. The rifle case shower enclosure blew me away! May you continue to enjoy it.

I think you are a genius, I love your lil trailer, so many great ideas

I am SOOOO impressed!!! This thing is just beautiful!!

I need to make one of these!! Nice job man.

I love it !! At first I was planing on buying a pop up! But now ive seen your videos have really inspired me to lean your way !! also say u have a one of kind !! Thank u !! Just what I need for hunting and fishing !

I'm impressed! Nice build! I hope someday to build one of my own!

Great piece of work ! very smart, clean and function

Way to go Capt Kickass. When we build it then tear it up we know exactly how to fix it too. Great job.

Great job! Thanks for showing it you should be proud.

14:53 No wonder that step gets in the way, haha. Awesome build. Can't believe it has stood the test of your travels.

I love this trailer !! Maybe one day I'll find the time to build one of my own !!

This is amazing! You are so right that most teardrops are not made for family of five. I’m so excited to find this. Now convincing my husband to build it ;)

I like that at 12:34 someone's blissfully asleep in the back seat as the car goes through more ups and downs than Robert Downey Jr's career.

Great job! Nicely done may you and ur fam continue to enjoy it!

This is awesome. Great DIY project. Thanks for sharing....good stuff.

Thanks for this great post. Beautifully done.

Beautiful! You have every right to be proud of this!

So much more fun to build something rather than buying. Well made and nice features!

such a awesome set up :) the best part of the of the camper is the memories and experiences building and using it

One of the best builds iv seen. Well done

One of the best built I ever see. Kudos

I watched every video of building this trailer(also every trip :)) , and I can say, that this is the most inspiring trailer build. A lot of thought into it and I love it!

WOW, absolutely brilliant, wish I had your skills.

Awesome DIY overlander trailer!!

Wow! That thing is awesome and that gentleman is very talented. With that said, only a guy from Kentucky would use an old rifle case to hold his shower set up and I love it!,

That shower and shower curtain. genius setup. I need to do this

Great build. The fiberglass overlay is an incredible thought. That helps sooooooo much. Great mind, sir. peace

That is fantastic craftsmanship.

Great Job.. I'll be checking out more of your channel. I want to build one myself.

Every time i see this off road trailer, it reminds me of the same camper trailer as the Bruder EXP-4 and EXP-6. Still love the looks of this trailer and i actually want to build one as soon as i've finished working on my vintage mobile food van.

Great job! When i was planing my trailer then after a week or so you relase your movie. It was a good kick to me for start my project and get some ideas. Now im planing to change some bits and do raised roof. Hope to see your new projects soon :)

Awesome, I love it. You did an outstanding job building it. Just subscribed

really enjoyed this video!! Thanks for the resources 🙌🏾 KY native looking to make one soon 😎

Great build bud...thanks for sharing

I think I've watched these videos a few times and thinking of my next overland vehicle and setup. I totally agree. I have three kids. The overland market doesn't cater to families much.

so well made, great job!

This is amazing... it's almost exactly what I've had in my head for years. Thank you, I thought I was being dillusional, lol.

Well thought out well done what a brilliant job... I want one..👍

Very nice. Love your build. Thanks for the video

Really tempted to build my own as well. Manufacturers want sooo much for these things

Awesome camper design!

Awesome build great job!

That is beautiful craftsmanship. Great job.

Very impressed with this design.

Wondering if the people who disliked your video are dealers who "Think" they can sell you their Garbage :) - Some advice. Make the steps detachable. Use a heavy duty pin on a slide track or something then you can just set them inside the camper when not in use so you don't catch them on everything.

Nice build and great color!

Nice work. I have been following this build from almost day one. I hope to do a build with this concept myself one day. Watching you from start to finish has had me at the drawing table for countless hours. I really just need to clear up a spot in the shop and get to building...

Nice! Make the stairs removable. Would buy one of these with independent suspension. Well done

Very creative. Good job.

I want one like this so I can bring my grands with me traveling, but I also need it to weigh about 1/2 the pounds because I'm pulling with a Prius. Awesome! You should be proud

Hey Wes! Absolutely great video man! And awesome walk through of your camper! Your camper was definitely an inspiration during our build and your channel has been a great source of information. Funny how we spent about the same amount of money on our campers! Based on your comments about using that old metal for the frame makes us really appreciate that we went heavy duty! Doing that brought us to about 4,500lbs. Looking forward to more videos!

Great design and workmanship!

Bought the plans, your design meets my needs perfectly. Thank You for taking the time to compile the plans, parts list and videos. Gotta snicker just a bit at some of the "experts" that have no idea how most production campers, including huge Toy Haulers & 5th wheels are constructed - WooD! Your design is solid and well thought through. Yes, there are some phenomenal all metal overland trailers - just way out of my price range. Plus, Climbing Five plus feet into a Tent on top of a $30K Overland trailer is simply not in my wheel house. Crawling into a nice fully insulated, heated cabin with a Queen size bed after a long day in the sun and a few beverages is much more my style - :) My Dog will like this much more too :) Lifting a 92lb German Shepard up 5ft of stairs is Not going to happen :)

Awesome build, alot to be proud of

Can't imagine why anyone would thing this wouldn't last. As a carpenter/metal fabricator and offroader, I cant imagine why someone would think glued, screwed, cleated, fiberglassed, and Rhino lined box construction wouldn't hold up. Pretty damn funny if you know about the materials and construction. Very cool video. Likes the others too, subed.

That shower is brilliant!

A very impressive build!

Well done 👏

oh my!!! @15:00 mark.... coming off the bridge.... your steps are deployed!!!! no wonder they get beat up!!! so funny.... BTW super great build and I hope to adventure out with you and Rob someday and we all family camp together!!

I can tell you that is one of the most thought-out projects that I have ever seen it's a shame that he doesn't want to go into business building these things although it would consume his life and other projects he's going to work on for sure but at least he offers the blueprints and I'm sure they are great blueprints right down to the nut and bolt great job. Stay safe and stay well and as always God bless

I love this set up i have been trying to come up with a way to make a pop up like that and have not seen one till i seen yours think you you for showing it to us all i will be getting the plans from you soon the only thing i may change is the size im wanting to do a 6x12

Awesome build. We have a cabin so it is hard for me to justify a $20k-40k trailer. I have been considering a modified teardrop DIY. One of the best designs I have seen so far.

Beautiful job.

Wow what an amazing design.

Very Impressive...really got my gears turning

Such a lovely guy - I smiled like a loon when he described reversing the camper into the garage. I watched the original build too, so it's great to see how it has fared. I'd love to have a go at building one... maybe when I retire. Best wishes from the UK.

I am so glad I stumbled onto this video. I am in the Yukon. I gutted and remodeled my 23 foot RV to be able to year round live, even in -45'C temps. I have lived in it for 2.5 year with no problems or complications. Well, bought property with house... RV is gone but want a camper for, well, camping.... was looking to do it myself with almost the exact same idea.... you have made my life easier.

Been watch you videos thank you for such a great job and getting it right - your awesome and encouraging - love the trailer

I'm in the market for a Bruder XP-4, I honestly thought this was one until I started listening to your build process. Excellent work, now I'm second guessing spending $40K vs. buying your plans and building one myself.

Ingenious design. I like the way you used a cheap gun case as the storage spot for the shower.

Wow, great ideas and design

That thing is so flippin cool

This is brilliant.

That’s awesome. I too have been contemplating a diy earth roamer.

that's the best outdoor shower I have ever seen and I don't think that the camper would break, it seems very well built, oh you're talking about it now. and yes I talk as I watch the video

Nice rig! You should be proud. It is fun to build something from scratch.

Looks like it very well made. For all those miles...

Loved this when I seen the first video and still love it now. And +1 on an Earth Roamer build.

Bravo Monsieur, vous avez des mains en or.

Good answer!! you should be proud of all of it, very nice job fella. Frameless body is the way to go, and plywood is an excellent medium. Directionally stabile and relatively light weight.
