Very nice!

How do you secure the doors so they don't slam shut on you in a desert wind?

If you have to you that AC at night, it's gonna be a bit noisy. I think i would bash my brains out on the 2x4 framing.

When I saw that speed limit sign, I suspected you were from the Las Vegas area. Joanne live in Henderson and has a great weekender. You might look her up!

It matches the tow vehicle nicely and appears to have all the conveniences of home except the bathroom. (Good idea, to use the camp bath and let somebody else do the cleaning on that!)

With the air-conditioning at the one end, I imagine you'll cool the trailer down and shut it off before bedtime. Otherwise, it's best to put your feet at that end to sleep. (I almost got pneumonia one time from sleeping with an air conditioner next to my head.)

Nice Job! :applause:

Hi hereinnv, are you still around?

Nice camper. I'm looking to build a similar sized and shape one to yours. Main difference will be that you've got a teardrop style kitchen and separate bedroom, whereas I want to open the two - walk through the rear barn doors, through the kitchen to the bed.

Do you know the total weight of the camper? How did you seal the rear barn doors and what kind of latches to keep them closed?

Thanks
Simon
