      @@johncoaltrain9485 I think everybody has had enough of fancy intros and low budget 3D logos made from Blender tutorials.....Like your video, people who just get to the point and share their information (freely as well) is always a very welcome break. Even if it isn't from a RUclips Star! Your still a Star.

      Boy Meets Bush ya. It adds a hundred pounds or so. But I compare it to throwing one of my kids in the back- or an extra cooler. There are definitely ways to cut down on the weight. That just wasn’t my priority on this one.

    Thank you for this build going to give it a go myself - One question- Do you have any dimensions for the drawers by chance? Thank you .

    • @johncoaltrain9485
      @johncoaltrain9485  3 года назад

      Not off the top of my head. I just built them to fit. I imagine everyone’s build might be a little different based on lumber, materials, etc. I can measure mine and send them to you, but I’d hate to give you a solid number that didn’t fit your build.

    John. Awesome build. I'm also looking to building the same thing but also into a bed converter. Do you feel you've compromised alot of storage space with the 2x8 wood as the foundation? In terms of using ply wood, some folks say you can get away with 3/4 ply wood.

    • @johncoaltrain9485
      @johncoaltrain9485  4 года назад +1

      Chad G I tend to “overbuild” just about everything. 3/4 ply would probably get the job done, but I didn’t trust it for putting 200# drawer glides in. 2x8s gave me the height I needed and only ate up a little bit more space than 3/4ply. (Mathematically, I think you’re losing exactly 1/2 cubic foot of storage space going with 2x lumber instead of 3/4ply.)

  • @Psilocy-ben
    @Psilocy-ben 4 года назад

    Great video thanks for sharing. I am trying to do something similar with my GX. Do you think 1x12s would be strong enough, or should I for sure get 2" wide pieces for the frame? Also have you had any issues with sturdiness not using a platform base? I see a lot of people use another sheet of plywood underneath as well.

    • @Psilocy-ben
      @Psilocy-ben 4 года назад

      Also do you ever have any issues with the drawers sliding around or making noise when on bumpier terrain?

    • @johncoaltrain9485
      @johncoaltrain9485  4 года назад

      I tend to overbuild everything at the cost of a little extra weight. If you want to go with 1x12s, I doubt you would have issues. My biggest concern wasn’t the top load but the attachment points for the drawer glides. Hence the thicker material. And no- I have had zero sturdiness issues. With the bolts pulling the platform down tight to the luggage D rings, that platform becomes a rock.

    • @johncoaltrain9485
      @johncoaltrain9485  4 года назад

      benoblest No issues with the drawers sliding around or making noise. If you take your time and make the drawers this right size, it shouldn’t be a problem at all. Adding the locks also keeps them from potentially moving in and out that 1” during travel.

    • @johncoaltrain9485

      My focus is more on strength, durability, availability of materials, and ease of construction. I’m not a stickler on shaving off a few pounds or adding a few inches. There are several tutorials out there for those who want a lightweight and efficient system. This build is for everyone else.
