ok great. Thanks for quick response. I’ll drain it down some when not using

Thanks for the replies. Generator arrived and it does the job ..... kind of I had hoped to charge the battery at a fixed 13.8 volts (charger has an adjustable setting) but it overloads the generator. But I can charge at 13.58 volts which gives me a 48 hour resting voltage of 13.32 which I think...

Yep rear doors open fine.. it fits pretty close and it has not touched/hit yet.

1st pic with it on 6x10 trailer. Second is my crude photo shopped idea that would have some added on fibreglass panels

Sure.. Here is a couple more . It was a fair bit of work so I made it to fit my utility trailer as well and can tow it behind my suv

I have a Power Max PM 4 60 Amp charger that am going to use to charge my 100 amp Fortune lithium 12 v battery. Besides shore charging I would like to use the same charger to charge from a Westinghouse 1200/1000generator. This would overload my small generator so I was wondering if I could use...

Thanks ...Sorry no build thread but I may start a thread on the major construction highlights a little later.

Here is my somewhat aerodynamic fibreglass over foam hardside

Thinking that someone maybe was considering making a kind of a cabover insulation retrofit with xps foam board or someone building DIY from scratch and wondering if micro DC a/c would be enough I thought I would post this.. I am not trying to be an expert. Not really sure how a pop-up would...

A person can check the heat transfer of their small camper or maybe check the cutained off cabover section with a kilo-a-watt meter and small 110 volt electric heater that has a thermostat. You could raise the interior temperature of the camper to say 20 F degrees above ambient . Heater needs to...

Regarding the laminated roof rafters I was wondering how much spring back you got ? And what kind of glue Crowned roofs are so cool ...definitely worth the effort IMO.

I for one would love to see the the pics you have. Is the puzzle pieced together idea to increase glue surface area?

Oh thats cool it has a crown. Way better than just flat. Frame looks great and yes as far as hardsides go its pretty hard to beat Bigfoot or Northern Lite.

Increasing the styrofoam thickness will increase stiffness and strength of the roof. If the original was 1" foam board even 1 1/2 " would make a big difference. If you can't increase the thickness you should put thicker plywood than the original on the bottom even if it means going a bit...

Werner. Want to share any info on that 3 stage pop up in your avatar pic? Is it diy or manufacture built? Thanks

Maybe too late but for stryrofoam(extruded polystyrene ) glue you can use any of the polyurethane glues (Gorilla and others) You will need to clamp though as it has some push to it. Epoxy with a filler mixed in will also work well with less clamping pesssure. A good plywood bond to stryro is...

you will need 2" ... 2 1/16" for nice sliding action up and down

If your still searching for a Northern Lite 6" 10" you can PM me.

If it’s versatility you want it’s hard to to beat a camper that fits your truck and also fits a properly sized utility trailer that has removable sides. Although mine is a custom camper that I built from the very beginning to fit both truck and trailer You could search around for the perfect...

My experience with Formular on a narrow floor camper (Northern Lite 6"10') is that it will eventually compress under the front corners of the camper. The foam board I was using was Formular C300. I then switched to a heavy duty truck mat material available at Princess Auto (Canada) which I...
