i live in Central Oregon and dust is a real issue during summer months. I had not thought about an automotive air filter. I am thinking about adding some form of filter on my max fan to filter the air when we travel. Thank you for the idea.

Keeping dust out is a big thing for me, it seems to go in everywhere! Great ideas!

Yep, The wife will agree for sure. Thank you!!

Great idea including the filter into the setup. Also take up so little space and is cost effective.

Thank you so much for stopping by and the kind words. Appreciate it!

For the small air intake I would just make a bigger cover. It won't look odd as the fridge cover protrudes any way. Give it the same bevel and use much thinner material with supports to save weight.

I have ordered the steel for a louver cover already. If that doesn't work I'll look at other options. Thank you so much

Great series; thanks from Houston.

Jou karavaan neem nou vinnig vorm aan en ek kan nie wag om die eindresultaat te sien nie. Sovêr welgedaan en die manier hoe jy jou video saamstel is baie goed. Geniet elke oomblik daarvan.

Positive pressure is a good idea, and sounds like the way to go. Can't imagine how you're gonna do the cooling.

If and when it works it will be great. Thx

Nice video, gave me some ideas thanks. Also louvers on a square sleeve frame that could be inserted and screwed into position would have made the fan accessible later on

Thank yo sir.. Yep that would def be better.. I just wasn't sure if the fan would work and didn't want to spend hours on something that might not work. Once tested and it works i will def have to look at getting the fan assessable. Your idea will work just fine. Thank you so much

Jou idee van 'n waaier is beslis 'n wenner. En die lug filter is ook 'n baie slim plan. Ek sal graag jou idee van 'n evaporative cooler wil sien. Ek het self 'n paar idees in my agterkop. Veral na ek gesien, en gevoel het hoe 'n radiator (groot een vir 60 liter engin) wat gewas is en nog klam is, met 'n ligte briesie wat daardeur waai, kan koud maak. Selfs 'n aircon sou sukkel om by te bly daar.

Baie dankie. Wel as ek wil koel lug hê met baie min krag verbruik dan is evap coolers die antwoord. Gaan hom een van die dae design en n "test run" doen. Thx

While I think sheet steel is really the wrong material choice, damn do you know how to work with it. Well done mate, this trailer is a thing of beauty.

How does one figure on the amount of air needed/size of the puller fam for such application? 🤔👏🙏

May I ask, where you got or what type of hinges those are? I have tried to source them but I'm not having any luck. Thankful for any help.

Hi, All hinges on the trailer was built, on most of them I needed custom angles so buying them was not an option. They start life as a flat sheet of 3mm stainless steel being laser cut to my drawings. I then bend and weld them up to form a hinge. I've got 4 more hinges to build soon and ill show exactly how I do them. Thank you

Are you using the same thickness of sheet metal throughout the build and If so what thickness is it? If you mentioned it in one or more of the vids I'm sorry, I just missed it. I look forward to all you videos. Keep them up!! Love it.

Hi there, the outer shell is mostly 2mm, the angle iron wall thickness vary from 1.6mm to 5mm depending on where I need strength. Shelves , drawers , pantry and so on is 1.6mm and some small pieces are 1.2mm. Thank you

Why did you use Borda filler instead of a Harvey duty silicon

Hi. It's what I had at home. The main body will get sealed with proper automotive seam sealer. This was just for the air box. Thanks for Watching
