Hello,
Here's an update. Finished up the insulation. 1" foam board, reflectix, and got my walls today. Coroplast in white. The black will be for my ceiling and for the storage benches. Can already tell a major difference inside the camper when I'm working inside of it at night time and it is...
Definitely! Keep in mind this is my first time using them, and the only negative reviews I came across were from people who said they made their covers slightly oversized. But they do state on the site that they add up to 1" per side if need be to make things easier to fit in the cover. At first...
Ohhh, you mean the aluminum angle iron? Yes I know what you're talking about. I never even thought about that part lol. Didn't think it'd be a big deal, but I think that neoprene sticker foam will be good for that. May not insulate much if any, but it'll make it easier on your hands when...
Here's a little update from last night. Used a hot electric knife to cut the mattress. Made it easy, and clean cuts, just the fumes are terrible and I didn't use a mask (yes stupid me don't worry I held my breath during every cut then immediately stepped away to breathe again)
I'm working with...
if you don't mind sharing a pic, I'd like to see what you are referring to exactly. Last night I was placing my new 4" mattress up there. I found a website that does custom fitted zippered mattress covers for a very reasonable price. Today I will continue the ceiling insulation on my lunch hour...
Thank you. I will be using the remaining foam board I have left. 1" thick. Still have 1 board left and scraps from the other 2 boards I used. I will have to make some taper cuts towards the ends and towards the metal dowels for proper fitment. I'm using a hot electric knife for my cuts though so...
Morning, was up late last night finishing up the insulation. It is done now in the bottom portion of the camper. Just need to cut the reflectix to size and order my coroplast walls. I'll be taking measurements of the ceiling today to begin making the cuts for the ceiling in the next couple of...
I'll be adding a bit of foam for comfort, not insulation. I have a bed rug that covers the tail gate. I don't think insulating the tail gate will do much if you don't do the rest of the truck bed like skyfree mentioned. I wouldn't worry about insulating it
camping in 10-20 degree weather for me is tolerable. That's about as low as it gets out here in the desert and in Big Bear CA during the winter. A good sleeping bag and my Mr Buddy heater on for a few hrs with an open vent and I'm good to go. My camper also has the velcro on top and bottom to...
good to know. I don't camp in the winter really and the few times I have done so in a regular rooftop tent, the lowest we usually get in Big Bear CA is like 15-20 degrees.
I gave my daughter many breaks lol
Actually, with my tailgate, I was planning on putting some foam on the voids too, because I do have many ridges and yes it does hurt my knees climbing in. It isn't padded like the bed portion of the bedrug so it is a bit uncomfortable when crawling on the...
morning, a little update from over the weekend. Bedrug is on and loving it. Insulation started, need to finish up both side hatches and 1 more barn door. Will require some fancy cuts to work around the locking latches. Ceiling needs insulation too. Reflectix will go over the foam boards once all...
I like what you did with the coroplast drawers. I'm thinking for my benches/storage, I was going to frame it out of 2x2 and sheath it with thin plywood to keep it strong where needed, and cut weight where I can. But I imagine sheathing with coroplast is much lighter?
I would do coroplast walls...
I'll catch up on everyone's posts later but before I leave work, just wanted to post these real quick.........
removed all C clamps, and bolted it all down. And ran out of day light and sun, but Bedrug is in the bed, not VHB'd yet, just sitting there for now. Until tomorrow; we're supposed to...
