    I just came across your build thread and read through the entire thing. Wow!

    This is honestly one of the best build threads I’ve read, you have done some really amazing stuff.

    Cool Build and great videos! I'm impressed! You took that sucker a few places I wouldn't have tried with a camper!
    What camera are you using?

    This is fun to watch!

    Why did you rivet the camper frame joints instead of weld?

    welding makes metal weak, rivets are more reliable
