    12v Movie Projector recommendations

    Last summer at the Overland Expo Flagstaff, a few vendors were showing expedition travel related films on outdoor movie projectors with portable screens, at the after events. My search came up with nothing, but surely this has been a topic of discussion. I do trade shows, host events at my...

    Living with a Powertank

    I've been using these food grade CO2 tanks, 20lbs. The local welding supply swaps them out when they are empty. So far so good. [emoji848] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yes it does. Good idea. I'm in the process of moving to southwest Colorado but I'll post updates when I get started on the new box. I hoped someone would want this one though. www.dinemetalworks.com

    Camper Windows

    Is that a steel frame construction on your trailer box? I'm doing a similar build. 1" thin wall steel tube with .125 aluminum skin. www.dinemetalworks.com

    That's a good idea too, if I had more time. [emoji1360] www.dinemetalworks.com

    Camper Windows

    That's exactly what I've been looking for. [emoji1360] I've tried searching camper windows, teardrop windows, RV windows, etc. No luck so far on finding them. www.dinemetalworks.com

    Camper Windows

    Does anyone know where to get the long narrow Windows for the front of a custom camper build? 8"x40" or 8"x36" or even 10"x40" or whatever length they come in. I have 12" x 50" of space so 8" or 10" wide would be great by any length 48" or less down to 24" long. I've googled, searched...

    After much deliberation, planning and thinking, I just cant leave well enough alone! HAHA! So, I'm redesigning my camper for just a little more head room since I'm 6'3" tall. I figure it will be just as easy to frame and skin another box, rather than take this one all apart. It is just bolted...

    160 watts of solar panels on the top provide the only charging when I'm away from home. I installed a solenoid near my truck battery and ran power back to the trailer plug to charge while driving, but still haven't actually connected it to the truck battery because it hasn't needed it. When it's...

    I could have saved quite a few pounds by going with alluminum sheeting for the exterior instead of regular sheet metal. I'll probably strip it down and replace the exterior with aluminum this spring. I built it so that the top box could be unbolted and removed from the floor/frame. It pulls...

    304 amp hour capacity. The setup details are a few pages back in the thread, or they should be. :)

    Yes, the AC is thermostat controlled. It runs off and on. So far I haven't ever drained the batteries down too much, even camping in New Mexico and Arizona in the summer.
