How much is amazon paying you ?

@CamperSizeLiving 3 года назад

Not enough lol 😂🤣 This video is not sponsored by any company but we may get a small percentage of purchase made through the Amazon links provided. If you find value in this content, We certainly do appreciate you supporting the channel by purchasing through the Amazon links provided. Kevin is so detailed in his tour and explanation that he and I wanted to be sure it is easy to find the parts and pieces weather they are purchased on amazon or through some other company. While creating this video, I tried searching his parts and had terrible results. A huge thank you to Kevin, who was kind enough to take time out from running his company to provide us all with a detailed list of his actual purchases. 👍😃👍

I love the red appliances. I have cut 4inch memory foam for the hide a bed in our spare room. Bought an electric knife at a thrift shop. Just draw a line in magic marker and cut. Let the knife do the work and don't try to speed it up and it will work great.

Thank you so much HL Dye! A tour of the shop would be amazing unfortunately it was in Indiana and we were in Arizona. Part 2 is coming. We're editing it now. Also all the parts for part two will be uploaded as well. Thanks to Kevin for being generous enough to put together 13 pages of parts and a few notes with them. We'll try to also upload the word docs to www.CamperSizeLiving.com as well. 👍

I live on disability and can’t afford that awesome trailer. But I have a 2005 7x16 cargo trailer I converted. I’ve been living in it FT since November 2020. My side door on my trailer is 36 inches, and with it being 7 feet wide I have an adjustable twin XL bed which I use as a couch during the daytime.

@davidwardlow721 3 года назад

Great tour. Thanks for sharing. You can tell he takes great pride in finding th we best option for his needs. Great use of a dock ladder. I can see the ramp door with fold out legs to make a nice porch or even as a clean off or work area on bikes etc out of the dirt. Looked at the itechtrailer site could not find pricing. My rough guess would be in the $7k range? Any thoughts ?

@scottvaughn7824 Год назад

Probably more like 12 to 15k.

@kubbie95 3 года назад

James - I love this Intech trailer. Does Kevin have a RU-vid channel? Id like to pick his brain some on his configuration that he ordered from RPM.

@TheYankmchain 3 года назад

Hello Robert. Contact RPM Trailer Sales and start with this model #WBTA7.5x14+2TA2. Perhaps Brad there can share the actual drawing with you from my build. The "14" is the main box length then 2 more feet for the V-nose.

@michaelkaine345 Год назад

Are those Dexter axles at zero degree or five down?

@JeffreyHarrington 3 года назад

Jeffrey - click the link in the description of this video, then "RV Product Links" at top, then any of the "RV" items in second row and that is where you'll find "Cargo Trailer Build #1".

The guy doing the build is amazing and articulate and polite. You aren't any of those things. Don't rudely interject yourself into the video so often he has to stop talking, politely, while you grunt idiocy to sound like you have a clue.

The owner kept trying to say what tubing he used for the diesel heater and the videographer kept interrupting asking other questions. Did anyone catch what type of tubing to get from auto store vs rubber tubing the diesel heater comes with? That set up would be perfect for my build. Thanks

@TheYankmchain 3 года назад

Hey Tgyrl32 - I used a braided fuel line that you can get from most any auto parts store. I believe it is 1/4".

@bobmirror7164 3 года назад

Aluminum wheels - big mistake! Torsion axial - big mistake! Like the ceiling height. The wall plywood acts as a lateral structural component to stop the wall from going out of square. Of course the side walls may have been built strong enough for vertical plywood wall seams. One horizontal sheets are better for lateral structural integrity because it would span all of the vertical trusses. Vertical sheet are ok but you loose a bit of lateral wall load strength. An example is to slam a wood pallet down on its corners one at a time. The nails will loosen and it will be come easy to take apart. A wooden pallet with a continues sheet of plywood on top and bottom will be much stronger. Dump the cigarette 12-volt crap and get a smaller 12-volt connector. Those cigarette plugs should be outlawed along with cigarettes. Good curtain and bed setup. I use foam padding on a cot for my bed at home. It is very comfortable when you find the right combination of various foam. Any fuel line inside must be in a sealed cavity, and a cavity drain to the outside. There are many ways to do that. Remember the Ford Pinto, and the pickup trucks of the 1960's with the fuel tank in the cab and I think the Gremlin. None of those designs are considered road worth today.

@@CamperSizeLiving Excellent! I'm 60 years old. When I was a kid, I thought I'd try out at Fresno State since it is an agricultural school. I live in El Centro, California--not too far from Quartzite, Arizona. ANYWAYS, THOSE BOYS WERE TOO BIG FOR ME! After that, I lost 100 pounds and decided to join the Navy. THAT FELL THROUGH TOO! Eventually, we least out our ground, worked for 30 years in corrections, and am now getting ready to sell everything and get out on the road. I like your channel. Have a good day. Roy, So Cal.

Roy, there were some pretty good size fellas in college but I was one of them so it worked out. Lol. I was in the Air Force before college and worked two years in a max security prison among other things. I'd say after 30 years behind bars and adventure on the open road is just what the doctor ordered. 👍😉👍. Thank you for coming along with us. Safe travels and I hope you have a fantastic experience! 👍😊👍💯
