Thinking of something like this to contain any combination of battery banks, diesel heater/fuel, mini-split, generator/fuel. I'm thinking that cabinet would want to have significant ventilation panels. What do you think?
Window is backward allowing force of rain while driving to enter….
Good eyes @walterwilliams268. You are totally correct about the driven draft. I did my research before I bought the window and knew that but when it came time to buy it, I got such a good deal for it I couldn’t say no. If others are reading this, Walter is referring to the fixed side and the “overlap” of the sliding section being considered prior to purchasing. Thanks Walter and all the best!!!!
One year ago already. Was happy to help.
WOW!!!! It’s THE BRAD!!!! Thanks for checking in!!! Been a fast year!!! And hey!!!! Thanks for helping these shipwrecked tourists!!! You were amazing and yes you saved the day.
@@brucemclean934 yup no problem anytime.
You my friend have a beautiful place to live. I said to Donna this is a small town feel I truly appreciate!!! You have to try the crab chowder!!!! Have you???
Florence is my home town.
Thanks for the comment @5905jr!!! We make these videos for exactly the reason you’re watching. Last year we wandered up to the Arctic Ocean and detailed our adventures, this year doing the same now only we travelled down the Oregon Coast and throughout eastern Oregon. Hope these videos give you some insight for your future plans. Safe travels to you my friend!!! Bruce out!!
I just stumbled upon your channel I’m looking forward to watching your videos. My wife and I are from Kelowna BC and we spend our holiday camping each year and it’s interesting to watch other people’s experiences 😎
Why so scared just go
Hi
Just saw you at Clyde Holiday State Park.
Cool Geerage on the road ! Can’t get any better than this !!!
Just saw you driving down road in hammond, or
Hey thanks for noticing and commenting. You made us laugh and made our day. Take care, Bruce and Donna
Holy United Nations meeting Batman - LOL How do a Canadian and an Aussie get a Mexican to cross the creek? 🤣 Awesome vid man. Thanks for sharin'!👍👍
Should of went to the comment section before I watched this boring vid😟
waated 6 min. of my life😢
Really cool. First one that I've seen with a drill.
That’s baby shit
Donna should help w every step of the way. Lol. I see a million subscribers rapidly. Great vid man. I'm wanting windows in our car toy hauler
Thanks Mark Hallberg!!! I wish she would. As you know there’s always more than one way to do a job. I’m a practical guy with a tonne of renovation experience. My method of using a “wood” structural header is plenty for spreading the load bearing value. Truest test of integrity?? Run the Dempster Highway to Tuktoyaktuk and look for deficiencies!!!! There was none!!! Pass it on and don’t worry about trolls!!! Bahahahaha!!! Safe travels my friend!!! All the best!!!
For anyone who’s worried about our little boy Diesel, I should say he’s harnessed and tied to Donna so he can’t fall off!! AND he’s always the first onto the seat and up for another rip!! Bruce Out!!
What is wrong with this guy?😂😂
Bahahahaha!!! Have you met this guy?? Something seriously crazy about him!!! Always entertaining to say the least!!!
@@brucemclean934 I can imagine. Looks great fun.
That is some clear water
It really is. A river that runs from Harrison Lake in BC. We’re spoiled with such beautiful places to ride. Camping in Harrison is amazing!!!
JUST GO
LOL!!! Ur right Jesse!!! Just GO!!! He’s a CHAMP and always takes it to another level!!!
The stock XMR engine snorkel is right at the gauges not the seat. The CVT inlet is at the top of the radiator. The extended snorkel brings the engine intake up above the gauges but leaves the CVT alone.
I have the same CanAm William. I’ve left it stock!! I absolutely love the smooth roll on power and ease of riding this beast. 1000cc is an absolute powerhouse for sure. What do you ride? Where are you from and clearly you know what ur talking about!!! Thanks for the suggestions. The guy we ride with is absolutely fearless when it comes to riding, he usually entertains us chicken $hitz!!!
@brucemclean934 very cool! I also have a 1000r xmr outlander. It's a beast
that is how you clean a Canam LOL
Yes it is!!! Raul is always up for entertaining us!!! He’s always fearless when it comes to challenges!!!!
Great Job. Can I hire you to do mine????
Thanks for the plug John!!! Cargo trailer conversions are funny cause the amount of time spent on making them camper-able is sooooo much time that nobody could possibly afford it. LOL!!! Seriously tho, just watch CZcams and learn what others have done, and make yours…….yours!!! Id be more than willing to give you some pointers about mine and help you develop your rig!!! All the best John, enjoy the ride and stay safe!!!
Nice! 👍🏼
Right on cool geerage is back
How do you put a pin in to hold it up near the end of the video?
Hiya BCB’s!!! I’ve got a video I just made detailing how the bed system including the pins are used. Stay tuned!! Do you have a channel yourselves? Or just building a similar bed? Let me know, as I’d like to see what you are planning. I can honestly say, I’d do nothing different if I had to do it again. Hope y’all enjoy!!!
What are all the materials you used for this project? I’ve got the same trailer and I’m planning on doing the same thing you did, any chance you could list out all the materials you used? Thank you!
Hey there!! The materials are as follows: Interior header. 1. 3/4” exterior grade fir plywood. 2. 2” self taping(for steel) screws. 3. 1 tube PL glue(construction adhesive). Exterior window install: 1. Trailer window of any size. Make sure it comes with the interior trim for sandwiching the wall structure itself. 2. RV mastic roll(similar to plumbers putty). 3. Good quality Polyurethane Sealant. 4. Paintable DAP sealant. The roll of mastic and polyurethane sealant can be bought at an RV store or hardware store. You’ll need a grinder and Zip disk for the steel stud cutting. It’s all really simple to do. Before I started I was sure to watch as many videos of the install that way I can pick up as many pointers before I started. It helps that I’m a tradesman with a tonne of renovation experience so it’s all just made easier by picking up ideas from those who’ve gone before me. I hope you find great success my friend and many happy encounters before you!! Safe travels!!! Bruce out!!!
@@brucemclean934 Thank you!
Like it.Randy from Tn
I don’t think so. Not the way I would do it. And I don’t think any structural engineer would approve either.
I appreciate your input!! She handled the most extreme of extreme highways last summer namely the Dempster Highway. Zero issues!!! That’s a WIN!!!
Some people cut the supports in a way that turns them into a flap that supports a wood frame that then you attack the window too. You can then screw the frame into the beams to hold support.
I gotta agree, that ride from Haines Jct. to Haines was outstanding! I did it in '06, my big motorcycle adventure. Stopped at a big gravel pull out, and marveled at the scenery and how alone I was. Not a sound but the wind. Came upon road construction, young lady flag person said not to worry, If a grizzly came along I could get in her car with her. Nice of her I thought.
Nice.
I like this setup, a pipe might be easier to work with for attaching the straps and fashioning a method of using a drill
Hiya @kennethrogers1129!! Thanks for the comment, and yes you are correct, a pipe could be used for sure. I was definitely inspired by Jim Ellison’s bed set up whereby he utilized a pipe. To give you my perspective, I wanted to use solid metal for the purpose of welding a 3/4” nut that I could attach a cordless drill to as the mechanical drive. I do want to say that it works extremely well as we lowered and raised the bed daily for six weeks on our northern Yukon adventure last summer. Hopefully you can take out different ideas from the hundreds of videos on CZcams like I did to make the one you want. I’d love to see how you do, maybe you can share some pictures? Anyways all the best, and safe travels my friend!!!
@@brucemclean934 yes sir will do, I have a toy hauler I use for hunting camp mostly. It’s About 16ft long set up with wet shower , kitchen area, one closet, and garage area where I keep the 4 wheeler and a generator with a fold down bunk on each side. Bunks are coming out being replaced with a larger bed that I will use the web straps to raise up and lower which will allow a good bit more usable space and camp comfort, thanks for your response and information. My only problem is designing a lock for the raised position for safety while on the road, the E brackets looks good but have another idea that is much simpler by having two guide rails on each side with a hole that a thick dowel can be inserted in , under the bed platform, to keep the bed from moving in the down position it will just rest on 2x4 supports.
What time of year were you there?
Great build.
Thanks Barry!!! Honestly couldn’t be happier with the build. Our space planning has worked well for our “tiny home” away from home!!!

Nice Job Bruce. I really enjoyed your video. Have a great New Year !!!
very nice would like to seen the e tracks in also how you put the slots in the rebar and where the pin goes in to hold the bed up I think I will try this out thanks again
Hey thanks for asking on the bed. I got the E Track system and hardware from Princess Auto. They carry everything you’ll need. As for the rebar slot I used a 4” mini grinder to create the pass thru slot whereby both straps overlap to wrap the rebar. On the end of the rebar I welded a 4” plate and nut. In the plate I’ve 1/4” drilled holes, then thru the 2x8 I drilled the same in the bed up position where the plate lines up with the hole. In the video I just made it look a bit more awkward, but in reality it goes up and down with ease. The trailer has been put away in a storage facility for the winter, but in the spring I’ll drag it home and do more videoing of details for you to make your build easier. I can assure you, this redneck bed lift system is the easiest most cost efficient way imaginable. All the best for you and your build, safe travels too!!
Merry Christmas boss! I miss work, I will be with you soon. Receive a big hug. Paco Breton
Nice looking build!!!
I have two of these amazingly hot fireplaces for sale!!! Check it out!!!
Nice job
Looking good! Gotta love those early morning shots.
Beautiful Vancouver I say!! Thanks Angel.
Would've loved to see how you attached the straps to the ceiling. Otherwise thanks for the vid!
Hey Stacy. We’ve found out that all these CZcams videos are about getting ideas, good and bad from others. Hopefully this has made a difference for you in a good way. Our trailer is away for the winter months and will surely do a show and tell for you in the spring. But to explain how I mounted it, I just used a self taping screw and washer thru the wall stud essentially pinching the strap to the wall. I trimmed it off with a piece of the pine I used on the ceiling. I’d suggest always using a construction adhesive to all fasteners too. I hope this helps you with your build. Have you made any videos of your build? You should!! All the best in your travels as well Stacy!!!
Excelente video👍🏾👌🏾
Excellent work buddy and always looking forward to the next video. Keep up the great work Bruce!
The video is good, boss.
Thanks Pal!!! Couldn’t have done it without you!!!
Did you get a drone. Man i love a good drone shot
