Platform Camper Build

After getting the mounting figured out, I put on the sides to the camper and set it on the truck. Drove it around for about a week or so then started on the canvas.

Didn’t really have much of a plan/expectation with the tent portion. So kind of just went for it.

Fit each side to the tent and sewed it together. It fits okay. Would definitely look to redo it soon. I’ll need to upgrade my gas struts that lift the tent to take the extra weight of the canvas.

Spent the first night in it last weekend after a long week of working on the tent. Almost done with it. Still have a short list of things to do, but 95% of the way there.

Come next winter, I will most likely take it all apart again and fix the few things that I dislike. But for now I’ll enjoy it and slowly start the CAD work with the new changes.

Very cool build!
