I opted for a 2017 brand new Sure-Trac trailer for a local reseller. Much like you wouldn't want to skimp on a regular house foundation, you don't want to do so with a tiny house either. Instead of pouring concrete though, you simply need a trailer. My custom RV build began with a humble trailer.Įvery house needs a foundation.

All further steps are what I did to design and complete this as a luxurious small camper caravan and are purely discretionary. Note: The first dozen steps are really all you'll need to create a highly customizable shell. Find your own construction process and bring in experts where and when needed. I seek to outline my various steps pretty extensively figuring that more information is better than less. If you think that it takes some kind of construction background, special skills, or innate talent to build one of does not. I was ultimately looking to incorporate my own style and really create a special custom RV that someone will explore this great country in or simply enjoy just as much sitting in their back yard. It is my way of returning the favor since it was actually jaylabrosse who with his really great gypsy wagon Intstructable inspired me to want to create something similar. I also wanted to share the experience and create the Instructable you are viewing right now. My goal in doing this was sell it and to be a model and proof of concept for the format. What I was looking to do now is build a much lighter, more versatile and portable gypsy wagon where no special vehicle would be needed to tow it. That's ok, since it was never the intent to do so. The first tiny house was built super heavy and I have not moved it much. I had previously built an award winning tiny home ( Tinyhouseinthecountry). Be sure to check those out as well! Thanks!īack in July 2017, I kicked off a gypsy wagon custom caravan camper build. UPDATE: Since doing this instructable, I have written a full book on how to build one of these ( Amazon) as well as produced a full (free) video series to accompany the book ( Youtube ).
