“Why buy it when you can build it yourself,” has been Bob Barnard’s motto for the last 50 years. From houses to guitars, he has found it much more interesting and fun to figure out how to make things than buy them off the shelf. When they were looking for an alternative to tent camping a few years ago and they went looking for travel trailers.
When you look closely at modern trailers, they’re cheap shlock and not pleasant to be in. Vintage trailers are also cheap schlock, but they have a charm and utility that are hard to resist. Since they don’t make them anymore, “why not build it yourself?“ Sadly, the corollary “why do it right when you can do it yourself” can also hold true, but we tend to have a poor memory for that kind of thing.
Bob Barnard will show and tell his custom, home built travel trailer. Unique, and truly custom. Built from the ground up, this trailer is a work of art. Beautifully built and customized, the trailer will be on site as well for all to tour, and to “kick the tires”. It should be a fun evening.
