Welcome Geek and company! Good for you for having a dream. Go for it. Keep your build simple. There is no reason you can't enjoy it. To give you an idea, mine was a simple design and built with all materials coming from either Lowe's or Home Depot. Including trailer, I have about $1800 in my project. I used the Northern Tool 5x8 utility trailer as a base for mine. My carpentry skills were minimal, so many "stop and redo" occasions. I spent a year working on it a little each week and buying materials a little at a time. I have made three trips in my camper and each time I find something I want to change to make it more enjoyable and easier for me to enjoy. You can do it. You are young and full of boundless enthusiasm and energy. This forum has a wealth of experience to share and all of the members are willing to answer any questions you have. We are all of the same mind; we enjoy the camaraderie of fellow "glampers" and enjoying what nature has to offer.
