Jobless to consider such a build? You got to be kidding me..wow! I can't believe the statement..shocked. I built the entire house I live in, everything from the ground up. Golden parachute..no mortgage, not enslaved to the bank. You think I or someone couldn't build something if we had a job?
I don't often find Kayteg1's comments helpful, but in this case he does have a point.
Jobs take time and energy. Even one where you work set hours. For many of us jobs can consume 10-12 hours a day, and 6 or even 7 days a week.
Building a camper from scratch takes time too. If you want to get the camper done by next season, you better be putting 8 hours a day in on the construction too. This isn't something you can knock out in a couple of weekends with the boys and a case of beer.
Who wants to go work on a camper all night after an exhausting day at work?
The only way you can realistically get this camper built and not have it turn into a 5-10 year project is if you don't have a job.
