I've lived in mine for over 10 years.. No rent payments, and i live better, and am warmer then my neighbors homes.. Tiny living and horse drawn. Code Enforcement has nothing on thier books for sheep wagons.. lol.. Drives them crazy.. I Love It..
This may be the best How-To video ever. Very well explained and shown. I like that the construction is nothing too fancy but fairly simple, yet the result is gorgeous.
Thanku so much, it was a real joy to watch u construct it. I would love to do something like this but its illegal to construct your own caravan/wagon in Western Australia 😢 Ridiculous really coz i know I'd never be able to afford to buy my own camper and i truly believe in some cases the diys are stronger and sturdier than the factory ones.😊 Great to watch the build, hopefully one day I will too, Im 64 this year 😊😅 Thanku again ❤
Best DIY video for a vardo. Most do not take into consideration the need for light weight materials--they are trying to build a house instead of a moving vehicle. You realize that it needs to be light to be mobile. Kudos!
Enjoyed watching and with grandkids I just know your helping form many memories with them. Time goes so fast this unique project will for sure be part of their memory to share for a lifetime. Thanks for sharing and for me the main concern is/weight.
Really well done, I am a complete beginner but I want to buid a vardo too, and watching your vidéo gave me some more confidence. The steps are clearly explained, thank you.
👍What a joy! THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS WONDERFUL PROJECT WITH US! You have used ordinary tools and plan old plywood AND TONS OF CREATIVITY to create a magic Gypsy wagon camper for your grandchildren! It is truly a work of art. ( Confession: my favorite shot os that of your dear little grandson enjoying the special activity children have treasured through the ages! 💕) ( And then there was the extra bonus of the John Deere still so close to the heart of this former Illinois farm girl! 😋)
Thank you Elisa for the kind words. I enjoy building things and I hope my grandchildren can enjoy this wagon for many years to come. Everything has a story to it and it sounds like you have many memories from your days as an Illinois farm girl! That old John Deere tractor belonged to dear old friend. I will take care of it and pass it on down to my son.
ps. Doing the same with a trailer I was given. In the the research phase and was racking My brain about a roof. I thought of the curved roof but dismissed it. After seeing how you did Yours I am now sold on the ideal. Thanks for the video and Nice tractor.
Such type of wagons are very good source of living for poor homeless people,in a small space they can live safely,stay away from cold,rain,snow and cold winds,their belongings are safe and the person it self,also good to keep safe from wild animals.
This is so cool thank you so much for showing it. I cant wait to see it fancy painted it would be so neat made in a miniature horse style wagon hmmm thinking about that!
It is a lesson from you that old age is not meaningless one. Those who are habituated to work hard can build such a beautiful wagon. You grand child is so enthusiastic that muddy filed is not a big issue for him. I like seeing it that your little grand child also use gamboot to walk in mud. But it is not common in India. Here specifically village peoples walk in mud with bare foot even in rainy season.
You did a Great Job! I built myself a teardrop trailer sized gypsy vardo years back. Got crap mileage towing it, but it got a lot of attention! I hope you get to really enjoy yours!
Wow... this was the best camper build I have watched. Thank you for sharing this I really enjoyed watching it. Very creative idea and great workmanship.
This is just lovely, and the way you taught us all is fantastic! I dont know how to hook up the brake lights though, but, can find somehow! Very inspiring!!!!! Thank you!
Nicely done!! I have found that using a long sliver of wood or plywood instead of a string, gives a much more uniform arch. Also i would of probably ran the roof plywood perpendicular so that the joints fell in the middle of the roof rafters, so that it could be sealed better.
TY. I Downloaded & subed to help. The best step by step instructions on you tube. I bet this man tought high school wood shop. He wast no words or hogs attention. A Alpha man 4 sure. LOGAS
Thank you for the kind words. I appreciate you liking my no nonsense, no BS approach. Actually, I was a Music Teacher not a Shop teacher but I just like building things and I taught myself over the years.
Beautiful! What a great little camper. I would love to have the skills and space to do something like that- or the money be able to hire someone. Lol. The rubber roof is a great idea and I love those brackets. I hope you document and share the finished build. Just love it!
Thank you for this. I'm picking up an older tent trailer this weekend, or next week, and my build will begin after I clean out all of the old canvas and cupboards.
Awesome, I love it, got a small trailer and feel the need to express my Hungarian roots! The colors are great and love the rubber roof, that will last for some time! Bravo Sir!
I want to thank everyone for watching and for all the great comments! I enjoyed building this little wagon and am glad so many of you like it !
That's great !! sir, thank you for posting this video I'm starting thinking about my 10 by 5 trailer todo something like this.
Any update video of inside?
@@theemeraldfox7779 ruclips.net/video/0clIxp-B4wQ/видео.html
Thank you
Is there a part 2? Can you put your Gypsy Wagon in a playlist if if you've got more than one video on it?
I've lived in mine for over 10 years.. No rent payments, and i live better, and am warmer then my neighbors homes.. Tiny living and horse drawn. Code Enforcement has nothing on thier books for sheep wagons.. lol.. Drives them crazy.. I Love It..
Awesome way to live
@@sandy_sd10 Wow! I can imagine that. I have too much "stuff" to fit in my Gypsy Wagon. Ha!
@@TimTools99 I am weird I don't have a lot of stuff. Nevertheless to each their own.
Where do you "park it" and live? Thanks!!
@@5thElement347 I live on a deer farm as a ranch manager. 200 acres with state forestry ajoined to the property.
This gentleman is awesome. I wouldn't have been able to construct my micro home without his tiny home video. Thank you sir !

Thanku again ❤
BEAUTIFUL! I really like how you built that using regular hand power tools, and designed yourself.
Nice old JD Tractor too. 👍
Love this! That clip of your grandson at the end and your laugh was so wholesome ❤
Thank you. My family is everything to me.
It made me giggle. Classic grandpa laugh!
Best DIY video for a vardo. Most do not take into consideration the need for light weight materials--they are trying to build a house instead of a moving vehicle. You realize that it needs to be light to be mobile. Kudos!
Delightful for your grandkids. Your Vardo type trailer turned out so wonderful. You certainly have talent with wood working.👍✅
I loved this! Way to go, Grandpa! This grandma wants to do the very same thing! Lol.
Sweet project
FANTASTIC PROJECT TIM ! kudos !
Enjoyed watching and with grandkids I just know your helping form many memories with them. Time goes so fast this unique project will for sure be part of their memory to share for a lifetime. Thanks for sharing and for me the main concern is/weight.
You are a master in woodwork!! Very well planned and executed!! Thanks for the history on the vardo too!
Thank you , my friend.
Wonderful wagon but the priceless one was the grandson just being a boy .🤗
Yes! I agree. he's a dandy!
Out of all the vardo wagon tutorials I've seen so far yours is my favorite! Thank you for this. 💖💖💖
Thank you.. Come back anytime!
Beautiful job I wish I had one ...I have two gypsy horses ready 😂😂
Really well done, I am a complete beginner but I want to buid a vardo too, and watching your vidéo gave me some more confidence. The steps are clearly explained, thank you.
Nice strong grandson Tim👍🏻 that’s quite a beautiful gypsy wagon you built⚡️🇺🇸⚡️
Thank you!
I like this shows a lot of creativity. He makes it look so easy
Absolutely beautiful Gypsy wagon. Your design and workmanship are superb. Great job. Thank you so much for sharing.
I appreciate your nice comment.
Always loved the gypsy wagons. Nice build. There was no way he was going to miss that mud puddle at the end. Precious.
Thank you and yes ... I think puddles are hard to resist when you are a kid! Ha!
Always good to have an attentive inspector on site!
You did a really great job and I’m truly inspired to turn my husband’s pop-up camper into one of these! Thank you so much for sharing your process

What a straight forward, interesting, sweet video. Just love that roof.
Thank you so much. Yes that roof turned out to be pretty cool.

Glad to hear it Scott. Enjoy your build and I hope your curved roof works out.
Nothing gives me more motivation then your videos, keep up the good work!
My dad taught me to just do it! I'm glad to help you get motivated.. Thanks
Always loved the colorfull Gypsy wagons. 😊
What joy must you be experiencing seeing your grandchildren live their adventures in the wagon grandpa built.
Hi Antonio. They are pretty little right now but they will grow into it. Ha! Thanks for the comment.
This is wonderful, I enjoyed seeing the process! Thanks for sharing ❤️
I think by far this is the most impressive build so far. Making me want to build one
Thanks a lot!
Wonderful video! I appreciate how much detail went into making this video
I just found this video. Wonderful very helpful learned many things. Thank you
These small vardos are so cozy and cute. Well done.
My dream! Wish I could find someone to hire to build at least a shell. I’d do the rest. Wonderful job!
Well....are you wonderful grandpa!!! That is a beautiful little house...I would love to live in something like this if I ever retired!
Your grandson is adorable ❤️
Thanks
look at you, you are an expert craftsman!
Hey Brother! Beautiful build! Prayers and Blessings to you and your family. Love and God Bless America! Uncle Jeff!

I've been wanting to build a Gypsy Wagon of my own. You beat me to it! Oh well, you gave me some ideas I hadn't considered. Thanks. Yours looks great.
Thank you. Good luck on your build

You did a Great Job! I built myself a teardrop trailer sized gypsy vardo years back. Got crap mileage towing it, but it got a lot of attention! I hope you get to really enjoy yours!
Thankyou.
I enjoyed that,wouldn't mind seeing it completed.

I love it!, gave me some great ideas for a couple project I am going to be starting in the spring. I also love the tractor! Thank you for the video.
Thank you! Good luck on your project.
Proud Grandpa. Great job on the vargo (gypsy wagon).
Glad you liked it.
Great job I have and old pop up that may just become a one of those.
Go for it!
Thank you for giving me the incentive to do this to a old pop up camper. P.s. you grandson is cute!
Go for it Connie!
That's terrific! Looks great and such a nice set-up too!
Thank you. Yes, I have a nice big barn to do all my fun stuff. Took a lifetime to get this place the way i want it. Ha!
THAT SURE LOOKS SHARP :)
Good work. Love the roof idea too.
Nicely done!!
I have found that using a long sliver of wood or plywood instead of a string, gives a much more uniform arch. Also i would of probably ran the roof plywood perpendicular so that the joints fell in the middle of the roof rafters, so that it could be sealed better.

Love your ideas! My dad was always doing some kind of wood projects.
Thank you. Woodworking is very soothing hobby.

You could have your own show!

You are very creative ! I I would buy this house if you were in Russia! Thank you very much , it’ really useful video ! Ludmila, Obninsk, Russia.
Thank you for your kind words. I have never been to Russia. That would be a great place to have this little Gypsy Wagon

Such a great idea and amazing build. I love it and it's truly inspired me! new sub here sir.

Thank you for this. I'm picking up an older tent trailer this weekend, or next week, and my build will begin after I clean out all of the old canvas and cupboards.

Thank you Samantha. Glad you like it.
GREAT BUILD.
That was right clever and creative. Made me just a wee bit envious, but my camping days are long past.
My camping days are pretty much over too. Every once in a while I can take this thing when I just need a place to lay my head down ha!
that gypsy wagon sure will be stealing many hearts...
It is fun isn't it? Thanks for the comment
Gom
Adorable and looks simple enough that I could build one. Thanks.
