  • Molly had an unfortunate accident while placing the teardrop camper back onto the harbor freight trailer. The dolly ended up collapsing onto her fingers trapping her hand briefly under the full weight of the camper. She is a trooper and thankfully appears to have escaped with heavy bruising and a minor cut. The shell of the teardrop is getting completely sealed in this video! We are covering pretty much every seam with epoxy and fiberglass, so we will be SHOCKED if any water gets inside. The camper doors are also getting finished/sealed and we are on the way to getting some color on this teardrop camper!

    Holy smokes, that is an ouchie. I appreciate you pushing through Molly.
    The design is pretty amazing. The conservation of materials, and the supportive nature of the the pieces working in combination to supporting each other. Thanks for this weeks update and take care. - Cheers

    Coming together my friend. When my wife and I built our off-road teardrop we rapped the entire camper in the 6oz cloth from Total Boat and that stuff is amazing!! Keep up the awesome work young man, you and Molly are doing an amazing job!!

    Molly deserves a spa day now 😊
    Just a safty tip
    When the trailer body was on the ground place an 8 ft 2x4 front and back under the body then the jack stands can be put on the ends of the 2x4 this gives more room to just role the trailer under the body
    Hope I explained this right 😊

    Just an idea, on top of the door ways you can add a little rain channel so that water redirects and makes it a bit better dealing with the water. Kind of like how a Jeep wrangler JLU has on its hard top

    After rebuilding, owning,& using several sailboats, I would urge you to glass the entire exterior. It will be much more durable , and more importantly waterproof. Also coat the galley, with epoxy to waterproof it. Dan S.

    I hope your fingers are ok. Looks like a good build guys. I have a question. With the doors being so large, and so thick, will there be an issue with the hinges and attached to the camper?

  • @jackmarks2176
    @jackmarks2176 Год назад

    Your trailer is truly a work of art and craftsmanship. However, having pulled many trailers for many years I just don't see the wood fenders standing up to the rocks, grit, and sandblasting from the tyres without a sheet metal liner on the underside.

  • @ljprep6250
    @ljprep6250 10 месяцев назад

    How much smell does the fiberglassing process create? I noticed that you avoided PPE for everything but solvents. (acetone?) Oh, I wanted to add that you can put a couple of $4 HFT motorcycle cargo nets over the kitchen hatch openings for some extra lightweight storage. I hope Molly's finners healed up quickly. I could almost feel it from Oregon when I saw that happen.

    I love your attention to detail. I am new to the channel and have been watching this build series. In your planning stages and and your running of wires did you happen to run wires for your trailer lights? Do you plan on mounting lights on the Tear Drop itself? The flatbed would have only required lights around its parameter but the camper will most likely require marker lights on the front, rear and corners near the top of the camper. Hoping to mention this to you before the final finishing touches get completed. Great Job on the design so far! Keep up the good work. FYI, I look forward to going back and watching you earlier video's as well.

  • @bobflores
    @bobflores Год назад

    coming together nicely. one thought on the fenders. if you did raise the camper to sit above the tires you could use the extra height to fit external drawers for storage. check out Paul Jackmans teardrop build for what I'm saying. thanks for the video.

    Poor Molly, sometimes the wood bites back :P I'm glad nothing was broken though. Sounds like just a lot of pain :( Nice job on the camper so far though. Just out of curiosity, do you have an idea on how much money you have spent on epoxy alone? It looks like you have had to use soooo much :P Sometimes, I find the little things can add up to more than you thought they would. Everything is looking great so far though. Have a great week :)

    When putting the camper on the trailer; use your saw horses on the sides whith 2x4s on them. Then you can position the trailer under the camper, and pull 2x4s. Don't have to fight the camper and trailer at the same time.

    Does that have amine blush, so should be washed off with soap water then next coat?

      It was cleaned with an epoxy cleaner, however it doesn't blush either.

    curios why you did not use your tractor to put the box back on the trailer? Looking very cool though. Glad your wife did not sustain a very bad injury although it looked painful.

    Not a good idea to use the brush to mix epoxy, hardener and silica. Tongue depressor’s work well and mixing sticks from WEST System are re-usable and works best.
