5Overland Trailer build

[caslim]

We are waiting on a quote from Neff upholstery in Riverside. http://www.neffsupholstery.com/

I priced out the foam online and it's about $240 for just the foam in the sizes I want.

Actuators are mounted. Tested them yesterday, and they work great!! Getting mounts welded on the roof on Friday. Then the last thing is to get the canvas tent made. So close.

Wicked build. Very impressive!

 

[caslim]

It worked!! Now time to enclose it.

Awesome build...

Finally got the canvas done! Turned out amazing. I'll get more pics once we go on our first trip next week. Can't wait.

Who made the canvas? Looks very FWC/ATC-ish.

Maiden voyage. 3200 miles. 5 states. Not a single issue!

Have you had it weighed yet and is there anything you would change or tweek, if you started over?

 

[caslim]

Definitely started my list for round 2. Total weight with water and gear was 2,504lbs. It has a 42gal tank, plus about 200lbs in gear. Dry weight is probably around 1900-2000lbs

How many you sleeping up top @caslim ? If I recall, you've got room inside too for sleeping?

 

[caslim]

5-6 total. Its a full size bed up top and a queen/king on bottom. Queen in width, king in length.

Working on designing prototype 2.

I've already started planning my next build. I'm not too far off finishing the one i'm building now. Next one is going to be done in aluminum. That's probably going to be the biggest change. I'm also working on a roof system similar to yours.

Added solar finally for the trailer.

I think that we've camped in that spot!

How many watts? What controller?

It's a 200w Renogy suitcase panel, and a dual battery charge controller.
