    I love watching people do their magic and create things by hand. One day perhaps I’ll do it myself - I’ll have to visit “skill-share” first though . Amazing stuff!

  • @DNSILVA2010
    @DNSILVA2010 3 года назад

    few ideas
    1. you should install a monitor/TV 40" that can unclip and swing down from the roof when is open , and now you have a workspace. 🖥🖥 you can run the power and HDMI through the cavities of the roof.
    2. Also an LED RGB strip controlled by phone. (typ)
    3. Make a drain on one side of the truck's bed rear corner to allow a pop up shower within the camper by flip back half of the sleeping bed since you now have enough space to stand on a corner.
    4. Flipping back the sleeping bed transforming it to a couch

    Great job innovating on this design. You are building almost exactly the clamshell I have been thinking of. It just makes sense to use aluminum and have a roof vent, skylight, etc. I can't wait to see what you do for the rest of the build.

    @MrGPorter123 3 года назад

    Hi there! I think you are doing a fantastic job of showing just enough of each technique and then moving on. You obviously care about your productions and how they land, so thank you for that and thank you for doing this project, because I think this is going to be my winter project on my Ram 1500, so I'm heavily invested in how it works out, and how the tent works out. I have a question for you for when all is said and done, and you have the finished product, and that is - 'Is there anything you would have done differently?' - Because I know whenever I finish a project there is always the thought, 'If only I would have...'. So thanks, awesome job.

    Dualex,
    What ended up being the weight rating on the gas struts that you used on the frame for the wedge tent? I believe in the video, you said the original gas struts you were going to use were to stiff and you had to change them out for a set of gas struts that had a lower weight rating. Do you recall what the weight rating was on the struts you ultimately ended up using. Very enjoyable videos, great content and you have a great skill set.

  • @salvatorebaleno9807
    @salvatorebaleno9807 3 года назад +1

    Are you just going to have to manually lift the tent to pop it up? Because I'm sure a fairly cheap set of rear window support struts would be great. Just hit a release and boom, it pops up on it's own. Then folding it up would have a little resistance, but definitely manageable. I'm sure you've already thought of all of that though, you definitely know what you're doing. Great quality build so far again. This is only the 2nd or 3rd video of yours that I've watched (so far). ✌
