    Well, it wasss a Starcraft: Build Thread

    Back at it Well, It's been 2 months and I've had a lot of stuff to deal with, trying to buy my first home and whatnot, but I'm finally back on the camper project funded by my tax refund check haha! Today I welded in an extra floor brace made out of an old garage door opener rail, it's probably...

    Interesting new trailer design (Craigs list post)

    Overall I like the utility of it but I do wonder why they chose to cut up the exterior lines so much. With the exception of the airstream I tend to prefer traditional designs. Sometimes pictures don't do justice so I'll hold final judgement until I get to see one in person.

    My Campomatic budget build

    I'm open to suggestions on wheels, Measurements say 2 inches of backspacing will work and give me room for tire bulge. (I'm gonna build the box and triple check before ordering them) I do want to keep the overall width down so the more b.s. the better. I'm converting the hubs to 5x4.5 and I'd...

    Base Camp Trailer Build

    This is such a cool build! I can testify to the strength of that 3M tape, we used it at a sign shop that I used to work at, most of our jobs were build to spec and the designers would spec the fastening processes too. Structural adhesives and 3M tape were the two main ways we fastened sheet...

    Well, it wasss a Starcraft: Build Thread

    Actually, that's the plan! the box will be roughly 2 inches wider than the inside rails that the axle mounts to, just wide enough for a full size bed long ways like you said. I'm going to use some circle track wheels in order to get the backspacing needed to make it work. The front outside rails...

    Well, it wasss a Starcraft: Build Thread

    Hey Everyone, First off I'm a new member here and this is my first jump into starting a thread so hopefully I can pull it off! Anyway, I've been wanting some sort of camper for a while but I knew a regular camper wouldn't do what I want. I was searching the greatness that is Craigslist and came...
