Anyone have plans/blueprints for a camper trailer??

I need to build a camper on my harbor freight 4x4 trailer.
I have searched the net for any plans to build one. The only one I can find is the teardrop trailer and I do not see me building one of those. I want to see what is behind me while riding.

I would love to build the one on utube with out the hydraulics.

Any info, plans, website with plans, ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I can not see me pitching a tent on the ground on my upcoming venture to Alaska.
I have 11 months to get something built.

You could probably take the idea from one of these and shrink to fit. http://tinyhousetalk.com/diy-tent-campers/

Above posts answered your queston on plans a DIY solution. Also, you may want to look at http://easy.sylvansport.com/ as they have a bolt on camper top.

Have you found you some plans yet that would work? If so can you share them?

I thought I had a plan but after the first cut with the saw I decided it would not work. It only gave me 10" of storage. My lantern is 14 inches and would not fit.

So I am still fretting on what I will be taking on my trip next year to NORTH TO ALASKA.

That is a pretty cool looking camper. I'm so gimped up that I feel like I slept under a rock pile, no matter where I lay my head these days. It always seems to take me an hour to work the kinks out in the morning...

I like the idea of a decent cot or hammock to put a sleeping bag in to make a good night worth of sleeping out of where ever I am. Camper mattresses (to me) aren't anymore comfortable than an air mattress on the ground, but I do like the ease of set up (like NONE) for that model "camper"... beats heck out of a tent any day.

Those are COOL!! Reasonably priced, too, without much real DIY required.

Here is a link to the camper/trailer that I made. I used a harbor freight 4x4 trailer.
