Good everybody’s okay and your truck and camper. That things pretty cool. Is that thing built on a boat trailer or am I crazy. Was the first thing I thought of when I saw the picture.

Yes. It is built on a dual axle boat trailer.   I can fit over 100 osage staves in the rear storage compartment.   I went with a boat trailer to have the weight more centered on the axles.  It was also cheaper than a flat bed trailer.  I welded angle iron with vertical supports to make a flat base for the camper.   Now that I'm not hauling staves, the rear storage area holds firewood and most of our camping gear.  I made a slideshow video of the build.

Glad everyone is okay.

I remember when you built that camper Clint. The last time I remember seeing it was when you were pulling out of Primitive meet at Marshall.

Hopefully it won’t be the last time. Your welcome to set it up on my beach if you make it to my neck of the woods

Muskyman:
Pretty cool video. As I was watching I thought he needed to put a slide of it loaded with Osage staves, and you didn’t disappoint. Liked the last picture, I think it was the last one of the puppy on the fender..

osage outlaw:
That was my old blind dog.  Glad you liked the video.
