Dude I totally agree on your logic for steel over Al. That appeared to be either 14-16g wall you’re using there, and that’s perfect to compete with alu-tube. Not to mention, in the event of a failure in the field, a field expedient stick welder will get you out of all times of jams, and even if that’s not an option it’s MUCH easier to locate a DC steel welder than a AC one.... freaking FANTASTIC build, my dude. Subbed 👊🏽

This is awesome! I love the steel frame + ACM + VHB + Rivet idea. So easy. So straight forward!

Man you've officially inspired me to do something like this as well. Building out a 2nd gen right now and was trying to think about how to maximize my living space without spending the $$ for a manufactured one. You're ideas are awesome, keep em coming bud!

Watching your build gets me more motivated because i want to build a custom pop up camper trailer for overlanding. I will for sure use some of these tricks.

Love your content and very cool idea! You’re great at explaining things too. Keep us updated on the progress!

Just picked up a 2001 TRD double cab for my 17 year old son. Would love to do a project like this with him! Well thought out! Thanks for documenting your build,we're looking forward to see the progress. Have the ability but not quite the imagination, you re info sure helps & inspires others. Thank you.

Great video! Thanks for the details 👍 You are doing some really nice work there, it’s going to be awesome when you’re done. Take care 🙂

I make a signs and that combo dibond and VHB tape is a win! Heating it up makes it even better.

When do you heat it up? I did some testing with VHB and dibond panels. It didn't stick well unless I sanded the aluminum, wiped with acetone, and then applied the tape. I'd love to hear about how to heat it up to make it even better.

Very cool! Thanks. Looking forward to the cloth part of the pop up.

very cool Micah! been waiting to see what you had planned. very impressed and hope i see you out on the trial some day.

Great build , I use to build buildings with the same materials, the type was ACM but have used diabond, it’s what all car dealer facades are made of and you can route them . Routing them use a point bit cut the tip off with a grinder . I made my camp kitchen rear pa el delete with the ACM materials

Great build! Ive been wanting to build my own camper shell myself. Thanks for puttin this up

Don't know if anybody has mentioned it but they make a router bit specifically made to score the board for folding. Cut edge goes to the inside. Nice build!!

great idea to use 3/4 frame with 1 inch foam - to make thermal break

Great design. Thanks for sharing

This is a particularly impressive construction, with very well considered materials and construction techniques! Those Dibond sign making panels are a laminated panel in their own right, consisting of two sandwich layers of aluminium sheets with a filling of polyurethane. Using this as an outer panel gives improved strength and insulation properties even before the addition of the pink EPS and plywood sheets. By running beads of Sikaflex 221 Adhesive Sealer along the steel frame and outer sheathing, you've hugely improved the rigidity and bonding over the 3M VHB Tape alone, as the beads of Sikaflex 221 will act as the epoxy fillets on a Stitch & Glue construction! Your meticulous precision and high standards of workmanship, together with your attention to minimise weight and your interesting materials and construchion choices make this a *rivetting read... *Sorry about that! (o: I'm looking forward to your updates!

That is awesome work.

stumbled upon that Dibond material when a local gas station was rebranding and bought a bunch dirt cheap (another way to source the material - hint hint). It's an awesome matrial to work with

Wow! 👍👍 Very Impressive!

Brilliant video keep it up

Looks great man. Another adhesive working checking out is 3m panelbon. Goonzquad uses sometimes where an aluminum body panel joints to steel etc with rivets or other areas of auto building/repair

I appreciate your creativity. What was missing here was a level of detail that is critical to moving these builds from amature level to something worthy of the materials and time involved in creating such a build. Where are your waterproofing details? Without proper detailing these builds turn into dust and moisture maintenance nightmares. The hardest part of creating these (the doors and working aspects) was sadly missing. Hopefully you will add this soon. Thanks

Super cool !!! ♥

Wow, great build! Love all the details you share, love how you go over all the materials you use and your reasoning as to why you used them, thank you for that! Hope you can help me out, i'm trying to find the Dibond/Alupanel at a reasonable price however, everywhere i look it's at least twice as expensive as you mention. I live in southern california, can you share the "Local sign making shop" where you purchased your panels at please?

When is the next video coming? Loved seeing your work!

Hey dude just one quick thing I discovered on the clamshell RTT I built (video soon!). You probably already did this, but if not, make sure to incorporate mattress height in to your angle of your lid's lift. I didn't anticipate the exped mat height to be as tall as it was and my toes touch my lid just slightly enough to be annoying haha.

I can't wait to see the finished product. It's looking great so far

V cutter on a router or table saw set to 45° works a treat for bending/folding composite panel

It looks great brother but dont use rivets. It will make it look cheap. Use red 2 sided tape or other type of aerospace bonding material. Keep it looking streamline. Again, great job!!! Enjoy it!

Sick man!! I'm planning my GFC style camper build. I've been thinking 80/20 like Ripcord did on his, but I'm getting my uncle's welder sometime soon, so I am thinking I might build most of it out of steel to save cost and I'm not really sure I NEED 80/20. I may change my mind, but I think I can build it faster and cheaper w/o 80/20. Question - what is the angle on top of the frame? It looks like a L bracket. Is that what you're going to be attaching your canvas to? Looks money man! (I've got a '17 F150 5.5' bed). The master plan is to have the truck pull a travel trailer to head west on longer trips and have this to do short day trips, haul and securely store MTBs, ski resort home base, etc...trucks are freaking awesome!

what are you doing for venation to keep condensation away from the steel?

This is a super cool camper design; it really seems like you’ve thought it all out relatively well. How long did it take you to figure out what you needed? Also, just a non-fabricating question: what’s the roof rack rails that are on your original shell? I’ve been trying to find a rack for mine and I haven’t been able to find a good one for my shell.

Good day mate. I love this camper. Was only able to sew part 1. Were you able to upload the other parts of the video? It would be nice if you can share the plan. That would be greatly appreciated.

I hate to tell you this but i do sign installs for realtor's and they use that material and in the hot sun it warps badly the larger the sign the more it warps, Hope it works for you, maybe with all the attachment points it wont warp.

this looks awesome, like how pragmatic but nice this turned out. I need help with hardware, need a lock for the camper-door which I can also lock from inside but needs to be heavy duty, what did you use?

Any chance that there is a part 2???
