for scribing keep a washer handy. stick the pen/pencil in the middle and trace around using the edge of the washer. makes perfect templates with a super consistent spacing

Have you thought about renting a RV for the weekend so you can get some first hand experience with how the inside space works for what you need out of your RV before you get too far into your build? Watching videos and talking to RV owners is a good start, but actual experience with using a RV is more informative. My family worked, planned, and dreamed about getting our first RV for about 3 years before we could make it a reality. We watched as many videos as we could find on RU-vid, and talked to every RV owner we knew and saw around town, but the first stay in ours was still an eye opening experience! Welcome to the club, and good luck with your build!

@dean3471 Год назад

Nice job. You may want to think about putting lights in your outside storage bays? It is really nice when you are looking for stuff at night.

@dooleyfan Год назад

Some advice, don’t fit your plywood storage Or walls too flush with the inner shell. Leave a gap as the trailer will flex during travel. You can use rubber gasket so it is sealed to the wall, but still forgiving for flex.

@ccpeter68 Год назад

Carpet was a good idea. I would have also put carpet around the holes. The more items you drag over those openings the more it’s going to wear and tear.

@Christian6.1803 Год назад

Came here to say this exact thing. Stuff like pocket holes are really going to struggle long term with all the flexing.

Same. I used 5/8" foam backer rod held in with hot glue for a similar thing. Worked quite well.

@NickGranville Год назад

Great stuff man. You’ve probably already considered this but if not it’s a good idea to have ventilation underneath a bed mattress (otherwise it might mold). That’s why bed slats are a thing. So when I built my campervan internals I cut slots into the plywood bed base to allow airflow. Makes a big difference.

@checkedoutchris 7 месяцев назад

Fantastic tip. Thanks.. I would have forgotten that.

@scottcarpenter9074 Год назад

Nice job cutting out the access holes. The way you did it adds strength, allows for storage, but very importantly, removes unnecessary weight. Tow and cargo capacity are key components to track. Thanks for sharing

@TransientMobile Год назад

Love the morning interaction with you and your son. He's growing so dang fast! Can't believe how tall he's getting. Keep up the good work Jason!

@floyd6545 Год назад

Insulate those boxes around the plastic wheel covers and the storage under the bed storage area. I don't know if you plan on doing any cold weather camping, but it will help both winter and summer.

@mobiletroy001 Год назад

You may not want to bury the water lines so well. If they need to be replaced, or repaired you'll have to test your entire build apart. Also you may want to have a larger opening around your water lines by the wheel wells. When you travel, things rub against each other...also tie the lines down a lot more to stop that movement

I don’t think I would totally hide the electric and plumbing…Leaks happen a lot in RV’s. Also, add some sort of rubber or silicone edging on any point of friction (that half circle in the plywood sheet) for the plumbing/electric lines.

@henrysavage7516 Год назад

Since walk space is a premium, I would suggest Rear Twin Beds with a raised tabletop over the outside storage area. The current 28 FT airstream floor plans will give you a visual from most dealership websites.

@cappy9282 Год назад

You seem to be doing pretty good with the build. I used to work for Airstream and have built many trailers and motorhomes over my years there. I know first hand about all the scribing and cutting to get things to fit the best that they can. You are making fairly good usage of the space thus far. Though, over my years at Airstream and talking with people that own the trailers, they really like the storage under the bed to be pass through. Meaning access to the majority of the storage from the outside and the inside. Thats why the majority of Airstream trailers are built with the hinged bed top. That way the owner just has to lift the front of the bed and have acces to all the storage from inside the trailer. Its a preference thing though. Your build is different but still makes great usage of space. Cant wait to see the rest of the build!

@geographyinaction7814 Год назад

The foreman/employee relation, is outstanding!!! Well done fella!

@cjones1262 Год назад

You might want to add hinges and some small shocks to the center ply under the bed so you can access storage from inside too

@joekellyou Год назад

I was just thinking that! Might be easier to use all the storage if the center panel pops up instead of just a single drawer cutout in the front.

@georgegriffiths2235 Год назад

Looks great so far don’t forget to get the little guy involved my dad had me running errands on building sites when I was 6 he was a carpenter/ foreman he and the rest of the guys taught me carpentry bricklaying plumbing plastering then I became a welder 😂 but the basics have saved me thousands of Pounds over the years

@User01448 Год назад

Best woodworking RU-vidr I know and very entertaining

@imsowright90 Год назад

Well, progress is being made. The only thing I would say is to think about weight. You might have all that in your mind, but it will be easy to get too much weight in this thing, as well as it properly balanced for towing. Again, you probably are already thinking about it, but just incase you have not. Looking good.

@SimplyUnsafe Год назад

Having done a full gut camper build, this absolutely jumped out at me as well. Thats a lot of weight at the back of the trailer unnecessarily (like putting a false floor above the waterlines). Should absolutely be a consideration to keep things as light as possible in a camper... especially at the rear. Hopefully he knows this, or reads the comments to take weight into consideration in this build. I'd hate to see all the time and material wasted if weight isn't being considered...

@dirtfpv Год назад

It's looking good! One suggestion is to not use flooring materials that can retain water. If you spill water at any point (trust me, you will), it will roll into that carpet and basically never dry out, especially since you life in a very wet area. Gotta say, every time I see your son it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. You're such a good dude.

@mauriceryton Год назад

The best part was you hugging your son. No better way to start a day. It was my favourite way to start the day and then make them breakfast. Now they have kids of their own.

It might be good to make sure you have a space. For outdoor furniture. Table chairs and extras for the family. For under the awning.

@SprocketN Год назад

Considering you don’t know what you’re doing, you’ve done a great job. I appreciated your explanations for your decisions at each stage. Now all I have to do is translate your build methods to my camper van build. My van has as many straight lines in its construction as an Airstream, the floor is flat, mostly.

@alanr745 Год назад

This might be a my favorite build-out of an Airstream...behind Andy's of course. :D Well done Jason. You're going to make something awesome and drool-worthy. Also, there is no "correct way" so long as it's structurally secure and maximizes storage. You've nailed it.

@noquedaniuno Год назад

for what is worth, you can cut those notches with a forstner/hole saw partially supported on the plywood, it is kind of convenient for the cables and hoses and it is more consistent than free handing it. You're doing a great job, keep at it!

@atkinsonwillard Год назад

I'm most of the way through my Sprinter van conversion. I spent plenty of time just staring at the inside trying to figure out what I would build. As for scribing and templating...

@charles2167fr Год назад

Cool project - as one would expect from you. If you can go back and add spray-in bed liner in the compartments accessed from outside might make things smell better down the road as invariably less-than-dry items will get stored there and the plywood is a good Petri dish. Then the carpet back on that to keep that stuff from rattling/denting much. Keep it up!

@matthewwysocki5019 Год назад

Thanks! I often get stymied when I don’t know what to do, or have it all figured out. So it is encouraging to see you just get started and figure it out as you go! Blessings!

@chrissterba501 Год назад

I love this build and anxious to keep following along. You are doing an amazing job!!! I just wanted to pass along a little experience on RVing. You are doing an amazing fit / finish job covering those water lines, etc. That said, RV's flex and vibrate a lot going down the road. Overtime, I've had to make repairs to those lines (either at joints or even just chaffing through openings). I've liked having access to these so I can visually inspect as well as make inevitable repairs. Just a thought. Again, looking forward to the next episodes on this!

@dougfrench6968 Год назад

That was my first thought too. Could have moved the water lines up over the top of the access doors. Wouldn't have even needed the false floor, and inspections/repairs would be easy.

@suzannehofer2541 Год назад

@RinkyWinkleton Год назад

Looks good, dude. Might be best to leave a little wiggle room for your plumbing though. The trailer will shift, roll and bounce around when you drive and you wont want those tight holes cutting into the lines while the trailer flexes. Keep up the good work!

@vargwinge6781 Год назад

Hi Jason. I'm a big fan of your work. :-) Regarding cables and water lines, here's an experience I had when furnishing a sailboat (which is almost the same as an RV, just without the wheels): I always ran the cables and water lines through a larger pipe before I built it in. That way, they were better protected against movement during the trip, and it was easy to replace them if I needed to. I also made sure to always put in an extra pull cord inside the pipe, just in case I needed to pull som extra cables sometime in the future (you almost always need that at some point...) The opening for the pipe was accessible from the cabinet with all the fuses. A little light inside the storage rooms is also a big plus when you're looking for something at night. I look forward to see the continuation of this project. :-)

If I may make a couple suggestions. Go to an RV dealer(preferably An Airstream dealer) and get ideas/insporation from their interior layouts. 2nd suggestion: layout a centerline lengthwise on your floor. By measuring every 4-5 feet. Then conecting the dots. This should make layouts,and measurements much easier.

@chriscutress1702 Год назад

This is a fantastic project for you. Get the air conditioning hooked up as you'll need it during your build. I've got a hinged upper entry panel above my under bed storage which allows me to store plastic totes with the necessary tools for RV travelling and extra cooking pots. It has pistons to allow it to hold the mattress up while opened. I also ran extra AC power strips to allow for a charging station and mechanical power which I found was necessary for long camping trips. I've never needed the furnace function as an electric space heater does the job but I do like an electric/propane hot water heater. Same for the dual energy source fridge. That way I can use powered and unpowered camping spaces. Remember to keep your 120VAC and 12VDC lines separate as you'll be AC-less if dry camping unless you bring a generator with you.

Look at how boat builders template, because the inside of a boat is a bit the same as the inside of a RV like this, just upside down. A method that would work is cutting a shape from cardboard/cheap wood that is fairly similar and hot-glueing tabs every 2 or 3 inches depending on the curve that touch the wall, you can lay this template on the wood and connect the dots, put some nails on the dots, spring a small piece of wood alongside the nails and draw your line to connect the dots.
