The game pull out, genius! What a great use of space. I haven’t seen that before in a build.
Glad you enjoyed it
The mitered corners are brilliant. They transform it from a box to a ship. Awesome design an John is a great presenter.
Super awesome tour
Surprisingly functional. They've got so much of the necessary stuff all tucked away. Got the nice cosy bed under cover. Windows etc! Good job.
Thank you for the support
Absolutely inspiring & beyond functional 🤩🙌🏿 👏🏿
Thank you for the support
This is a lovely design, skillfully built. The range of skills that John used to build this is impressive indeed.
Thank you for the support
Patrick you are so right! This Trailer is Beautifully constructed! Teak wood Trim gorgeous results! Thank you all! Great video!
You bet!
Beautiful camper! The two of you should be very proud of your accomplishment. So much thought went into the construction. Lots of great features. It is gorgeous!
Great video! Such an awesome build… Love all the collective pieces that work so well together! Please follow up with another video if John modifies in the future! Would love to see what him and his wife come up with! Team work!
Cannot wait to see what they do next
Thanks
Great use of repurposed items! The teak wood throughout is a gorgeous touch.
Yes, lots of great ideas here
Pretty cool build! Many surprises, like refrigerator door on the inside, pull out kitchen, cover on air conditioner, big bed, large water tank. I love it. I think he could add a screened in porch pretty easy on the kitchen side of the camper. This could possibly turn into a business.
Glad you the tour
Excellent build. He did a great job. Thanks Patrick.
Thank you for the support
I’m so glad to see this today as well as the international! My dad had one when I was a kid.
That is so great
Creating a space capsule/camper with windows to match your International Scout tow vehicle was GENIUS!!! Your ingenuity matches your building skills... Congratulations on monumental Camper ❤
Glad you like it
Very nice trailer, really beautiful job, well done sir, thanks Patrick, well done gentleman. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
I knew you would like this one Scott
Bad AZZZZZZZZZ Rig with that Scout Perfect
Thanks
that was awesome!I was wondering where the kitchen was lol the only thing I didn't see however was the bathroom
Correct, there is not a dedicated bathroom just like other trailers this size
This is a beautiful camper!!
Thanks so much it was really a fun build thanks
Yes 🙌
Near perfect trailer! Love the simplicity.
That’s the best done trailer I’ve ever seen, and I have made my own before as all. So I know what it takes.. Well done!
Fantastic build love it guys and the use of recycled materials everything is great ..plus love the tabletop Joan it’s gorgeous 🙏❤️🇳🇿🇳🇿thanks for tour Patrick
Glad you enjoyed the tour
Enjoyed the tour. very nice. I couldn't stand not standing though. lol
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome! And better yet is the tow vehicle! This guy and his wife have mad builiding skills
Thank you for the feedback and support
Wow!! This is absolutely beautiful - clever design & also personalized (love the Alien references - in 1979 I was in Washington DC & went 3 times to see Alien). Gorgeous!
Love this too
Great trailer, cool couple! Very creative. The customized rigs are best!
Glad you enjoyed the tour
What a couple! What a build! I was moved to write when your wife came around the corner. Just the way you greeted her and brought her into the presentation. Rehearsed or spontaneous, it worked! I just started smiling, thinking of the two of you having a ball putting it together and then enjoying it on your travels.
It doesn't have everything I would want, but it has a lot of features you don't see offered anywhere else, that I really like. I really like the extra length, and your fridge slider. You said you wanted to make coffee inside in the morning. Does that mean you access your stove from inside, and the bed folds away or something? You gain convenience and ease with your kitchen and fridge on sliders.
Maybe I need to watch again. You mentioned coffee without going outside, when you were showing the refrigerator, but I didn't catch your coffee setup. I do see you using the extra length of the cabin for enough counter space for a coffee making setup.
I admire your use of materials, I don't think I'd go with those materials, because I'll be buying one already made, and I don't have the skills to maintain, much less repair a lot of the stuff you used. But for YOU, it's all stuff you're confident you can maintain and repair. That rubber roof WILL wear out. But somebody with eyeballs on it will pick up on it and do something about it before it ever comes close to damaging any of the wood. I'm a guy who might forget to check.
About the only other thing I'd do different is I'd want more heating options for fall-winter-spring camping. Your national parks countertop map would more likely be a national forests map, for me. Most of the time I don't need 4 wheel drive, but most of my trips entail some 4-wheeling at or near my destination, so I'm a little closer to off-road than you.
Thank you very much for the feedback
That's very nice! Lots of room!
It sure is!
I love these personal builds. The engineering is amazing. As a design student, “form follows function “ was pounded into our heads. This is very well done.
Couldn't agree more!
Thanks it was a super fun build
And you pull it with a Scout 11. I love the Scout and camper.
Great combination
Beautiful DIY,,, simple and everything you need to enjoy your camping,, love your designs,, thanks for sharing,,,👍👍👍
Thanks for watching
Very cute homemade camper well done 😊❤️
Thanks Lisa
What a great little trailer!! I so admire people who can do things like this! Beautiful!
I love this little trailer
Awesome build! Great use of space and what an attractive design. Very organized. Love the game board.
Thanks.we always need some fun to do.
@@johnrichie5297 You did an incredible job with this. I love all the practical and the aesthetic details in your build. Great use of space and materials.
Love it too
a man of same mind. I've just got a boat trailer for the start of mine.. Love it! that Scout is sweet as well!!
Sound like an awesome project ahead
Wow, this is an awesome build!!!!
Awesome 😎
This is a great build! Wonderful
Thank you very much John and his wife will be excited to rear this.
Another great DIY job my friend this is why I encourage people make your own don't spend $30,000 or no dumb camper trailer make your own for quarter of the price mines made out of wood and mine's in the process of almost being done I can't wait to finish my camper trailer myself which cost me Pennies on the dollar compared to pain $30,000 from a manufacturer which is very light and weak mine is heavier but strong and will hold the ground because of the weight hell yeah.. not to mention mine is a high top DIY high top which I did myself of course it's not finished yet to go with my camper van which I did myself DIY is the way to go guys DIY rocks..
Thank you for the feedback
WOW! Love it. What a lovely couple! Their union must have been made in heaven given their talent, skills, and knowledge. Their "camper" is an art piece, in my opinion. Beautiful, and functional. I enjoyed the ease with which he was able to show the different compartments, and their use. Clearly, an excellent, and well thought out design.
My only disappointment was not meeting their dog! I wish them happy, fun, and safe travels, and success with their future creations.
Glad you enjoyed the tour
I'll let Ripley ( the dog, aka the captain) know that you enjoyed my build thanks so much
@@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures
Loved every bit of it.
Thank you!
@@johnrichie5297
Thank you. Dogs are my favorite people!
Really nice camper , very well thought out , Inspirational !
Glad you enjoyed it
Wow! I really like the creativity on this build. Especially like the outdoor kitchen design with the game table. And I like the epoxy countertops.
Nice build. Enjoy it.
Such an awesome couple and beautiful design
Wow....just wow..what a great build!
Not normally a fan of trailer campers but this is awesome! I’m converted
Working on phase two. Converting the roof two hard shell pop-up. Stay tuned. And thanks for your support
So happy you enjoyed this one
Love the Alien theme
Me too
what a great family 👍
they did an extraordinary work.
Yes 🙌🏼
I love the Scout!!! And the Alien references!!!
Me too
That's a sweet little rig!
Yeah, I agree
Really like to see a video of his International Scout tow vehicle too
Me too
Очень понравилось! Люблю такой тип караванов. Красивый дизайн, компоновка, отличные конструктивные решения! Браво! Желаю Вам приятных путешествий!
Glad you like it
Been always looking at other trailers to build off of and avoided boat trailers. But after seeing this video...I am now considering boat trailers.
Glad it was helpful
Great indoor access inside to the fridge! I was wondering about that!
Clever idea
Hi John,
Wonderful build - nicely thought out for your use. You show an instant hot water shower in its own portable case. Could you please post the information for that as it might be what we are looking for for our van build🤞
I love your trailer. You thought of everything
Thank you 🙏🏼
You had me with the scout!
Yes John mistakes are good. Your chicken scratch is awesome!
Thanks for watching
Thank you for checking this one out
Creative camper!
Yes, love it
Yes it is an amazing build
Thank you for the support
caravana fantástica (y coche también) muy bonito el conjunto y proyecto 10
Thank you Eduardo
Lovely,lovely👍👍With the pretty teak trim makes me think of canal boats. Pelican box seems great idea. Love the kitchen. Gotta love paisley 💖.
Thanks for watching I'll let my mother know , she picked the Paisley
Thank you Linda
I like this guy, and shout out to his mother as well!
I really couldn't like this video anymore!
😀
Thanks for the support
Love this idea. Definitely did your due diligence. Only thing I saw that I was wondering about, seems like your concerned about security and saw your exterior hinges on your doors. Since already built, I'd change the fasteners out with security torx style. That way not every degenerate with a Phillips can feel froggy. Just being "that guy" lol love the build and the sourcing of parts. Love the build man, mad respect!!
Btw, I'm designing a big squaredrop based off a 18ft tandom boat trailer. So I really like your ideas, thank you for helping out with my design.
Thanks for checking it out and good luck with your build. I have lock nuts on the inside which would prevent anyone from unscrewing the hinges from the outside.
I think I would put a 1 inch thick foam rubber mat over that linoleum to protect your knees and it will help add additional warmth.
Good idea I like it!
Good suggestion
OMG that Scout II. 😍
Great combo
Amazing build, looks like it can be an Airstream.
Love that aluminum
Wow! John you have cool and functional squaredrop, I love your design. When I build mine it will be a squaredrop.
Thank you for the support
Ac cabinet is brilliant.
Love it
You are right Patrick, it is beautiful!

I would be happy to custom build you something if interested thanks for watching
The list is growing
@@johnrichie5297 I’m a few years away from retiring (4 years) so I’ll keep you posted. Unless my company does forced retirement.
Lovely styling
Yes 🙌🏼
I loved it! It is a beautifully designed trailer, and I lived in Manahawkin for 20 years. I keep a very small 12nV cooler inside my DIY for the same reasons.
Thanks for watching! That coffee first thing is important no matter what the weather!
Very cool!

Wow that would be perfect I could pull that behind the VW trike without a problem projects are great . 👏👏👏👏👏👍✌✌🎅🚌🌻
Thanks for watching send me a picture of your VW trike
Glad you enjoyed the build and tour
@@johnrichie5297what a beautiful job you did on that trailer. I have a 28 foot converted school bus that I have to sell first before I get to trike plus I'm looking for a trike that the back part is still the VW bug with the roof but when I get it I will definitely send you a picture. Keep up the great work.
