I just finished building a rustic teardrop shaped camper to take to trad bow shoots.  Here is a picture slideshow of the build.

That thing is awesome!  Great job on the build!

Do you know the total weight?  Just curious.
For we did not follow cleverly contrived myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; instead, we were eyewitnesses of His majesty.

I don't know the final weight.  The tongue weight is just about perfect.  It pulls good empty or loaded with 150 staves in the back

Thanks guys.  I want to make a smaller antler handle for the inside of the door.

I love it. I've wanted to build a homemade off-road trailor for awhile. Just may be my winter project after watching that.
This stuff ain't no rocket surgery science!

Thanks guys.  I took it to the Tennessee Classic for a week and the Marshall, Michigan Primitive shoot for 4 days.  It's very comfortable to sleep in with the memory foam mattress.  I will be taking it to the Scottsburg, IN ITBA shoot in September.

Outstanding! My favorite part is the osage step.

I had to have some osage somewhere on it.  My first plan was to have some logs milled into thin boards to use for the siding.  When I got free access to old red oak barn siding I decided to go that route.  I was afraid the osage boards would warp and crack anyway.
