  • Please don't forget to SUBSCRIBE! I put out new videos twice a week which are mostly about how to build a TINY HOUSE. If your dreaming of building and hope to start one someday, this is a channel you need to be a part of. Tons of helpful content to help you on your build.
    For up to date posts follow the build on Facebook at: / tiny-h. .

    I have recently join patreon. My goal is to start a second tiny house. One that is built with a shoe string budget which is provided by the pattern earnings. All fund from my patron account will go towards that build. The first purchase will be an old camper. So help me get there and I'll document that build as well.

    7 years and still one of the best tiny home build series.

    The finished trailer looks great, and at every step in the process! I like the close-ups of the weld when you were calculating stuff. I think you have made the best "tiny house" video I have seen. Informative, pauses to absorb info, visual (how parts were custom cut), step-by-step, 2x forward!

    Gorgeous trailer. I bought mine from Tumbleweed. As a first time builder, I needed the "jump start". If I had to build the trailer, I think I would still be at the welding shop!!! Congratulations on your success.

    I found your video while searching CZcams for a solution to the failure of my travel trailer frame (the whole RV industry seems to use the same crappy, weak I-beam frames with low quality steel).
    - Your frame is very well built and is AWESOME! Well done!
    - You and that metal fabrication shop could create a business selling replacement frames to people like me whose travel trailer frames have cracked and broken (more than once)....just sayin’...

Hey, on your next one maybe you could just rent a spray booth. We have those here where I'm at. People even use them to sand blast parts and powder coat. (also a painter) Keep up the good work !

    • @TinyHouseCustoms

  • @sam1shields
    @sam1shields Před 4 lety +2

    Hi great job with a trailer and excellent presentation, videoing and editing.What is the total weight of the trailer. And what max weight Is it designed to carry? This has definitely inspired me to build my own. Last question; do you think it would have been better to make it out of the box section which would then make the Weld joints a lot easier to execute?

  • @empirecases4128
    @empirecases4128 Před 5 lety

    What considerations were given to the axles you used, weight, how far you plan to haul, Or did you basically determine the maximum weight and bought the minimum you could get away with for the least amount? I wonder if relocating is given much consideration when building a Tiny House and the trailer, I haven't looked beyond this video so I don't know if when building your house if you thought of ever removing the house to set it on a foundation, is that ever a consideration? What is each Axle rated for?

  • @deej19142
    @deej19142 Před 9 lety +2

  • @andrewm6666
    @andrewm6666 Před 7 lety

    Great video.Before ordering an axle I want to be clarify a couple things-What is the hub to hub or overall axle length? We are building out to maximum allowable with out lookers.Is Center to Center for the leaf springs the same as the main frame dimension width with the hangers directly below the channel? Tire size? Thanks
