Please report back and let us know how it goes.

The taped aluminum skins over welded aluminum frame is an industry standard in trailer manufacturing. I think they are touting the tapes 30 year rated lifespan. Lifespan of bonds in the field will vary depending on design variables like joint load cycling, environmental conditions, exposure to...

Was at Lowes and they have a few similar systems. Toughbuilt, Klein and Craftsman. I might use one or two in my trailer build. I like my trail kitchens chuck box because it was designed to store a 2burner camp stove. It doesn't appear that any of these modular tool boxes would hold a standard...

Interior does look bigger than a 6' camper.

Have you have considered external tie downs and are you only interested in internal?

Regarding diesel heater cycling, it may vary depending on the manufacturer's controller and controller settings.

In my area a person washing dishes makes the same as a new hire QC inspector in a fab shop. The difference being that a QC inspector may have the opportunity to move up and will gain technical knowledge on the job. If they have the aptitude they could eventually go for a degree in engineering or...

Are you thinking of using packouts inside or outside of your vehicle or both? We have 3 sets of camping kitchen gear. Small medium and large in different storage configurations packed and ready to go depending on the mission. Backpack kits are in packs. We have an 8 gallon rubbermaid action...

Prices aren't going to come down. It will be a slow crawl for wages to come up.

Dang! Sounds like a mostly great adventure. Glad your ok.

nice work!

Thanks. Are you saying that Lemker also covers the structural failure $10,000 build out coverage if the shell is assembled by a build partner?

Going over your info and site and want to make sure I understand what you offering. Looks like you assemble the shells in Texas and sell direct to people doing DIY buildouts. You also have build partners who I assume are finishing out your shells as an upfitter. Looks like you have assembled a...

Interesting data. Burn rate is higher than expected. Do you notice much difference in consumption between 32F and 0F?

I used polyethylene corrugated plastic (basic sign material) on the interior of a trailer project that I'm working on. Full sheet runs of it distorts and gets rumply when it heats up. It's not the same corrugated plastic material as used in automotive applications. I had a sprinter van with a...

For me, I'd rather lean toward the side of ultralight and avoid damage. Bashing a habitat box through a narrow road sounds like stuffing a square peg in a round hole. For really rugged construction, at some point it seems like a foam core sandwich panel starts to lose it's advantage when...

Yes. Was a mostly a jokey comment. I didn't watch the whole video but didn't see any hiking. Maybe was at the end. He he.

Well I guess we know who their marketing demographic is. Campers for middle age+ men. See the world from the comfort of your drivers seat before you die. LOL

Another elusive tidbit with the foam core / FRP panels is that their insulative properties mean that they don't conduct much heat (thermal energy) into areas that aren't in contact with warmed air. Idasho's wood build would likely have more heat in the nooks and cranny's and inside cabinets /...

Lots of votes for diesel heaters. Doesn't mean propane is a bad choice.
