Camper do it yourself: options and stages of design. Independent manufacture of autoomom

If you decide to make a car with your own hands, you will need some basic knowledge, tools, a lot of patience and even more free time. And, of course, a reliable vehicle to create a camper.

This article present some photos of the house on wheels built by your own hands on the basis of Volkswagen car. Most of the Soviets can also be used during the construction of motorways on the basis of other cars.

Before you start it very important to read the next item!

IMPORTANT! Before the beginning of the creation of a camper with their own hands, it is necessary to legalize the implementation of such a procedure. In this case, you can prevent various difficulties of a legal nature. The rules differ depending on the country, so we cannot publish uniform recommendations on this occasion.

The first steps

Building a house on wheels with their own hands consists of the following steps:

  • Outdoor work
  • Internal work
  • Work on water supply
  • Gas and electricity
  • Furniture
  • Other

If the van is operated only by two people, there will be a lot of space. If you plan to travel 3 or more people, you need to consider the number of places. Remember that places should be equipped with appropriate safety belts.

How many places to sleep do you need? One option is to arrange a bunk bed for children. If you have a reserve of place under the roof, you can make a "drop-down" bed.

At this stage, you must have a clear plan for further action. Of course, you can improvise, but much easier to have a thoughtful plan on paper.

Outdoor work

The first thing to be done in the preparation of the basic vehicle is a thorough cleaning of the inner part of the car.

At this stage, it is also necessary to consider the form of the body as a whole. It is time to deal with body damage, rust. Local or complete car painting will help.

As a rule, vans have no windows, so you can think about their installation. They are needed to provide the influx of fresh air and entering sunlight inside the autodoma. The windows are of different shapes and sizes, the choice depends on your preferences and body features.

During the construction of the house on wheels, there will have several holes in the car body. We are talking about the holes for ventilation, the output of the gas (in the case of leakage), exhaust gases of the heater, the filthy gorlovin for water, etc. Some of them can be made later, but it is much easier to solve the issue now, if you know exactly where they will.

Do not forget to apply primer in all places where naked metal appears to prevent corrosion.

Build your own autod right!

Internal work

Most likely, the wagon will be partition behind the front seats. Some partitions are attached to screws, others weld to the body. Solve the problem will help "Bulgarian".

Remember the need to use protective products. Sparks can leave unpleasant stains on the glasses, from which it is impossible to get rid of.

Begins the most interesting. The insulating layer is very important because it will protect your camper from external noise and temperature. There are many materials that can be used. The choice depends only on you.

In this case, was used material Armaflex. It should be cut into pieces and glue. The main point is the protection against moisture. If the insulating material does not protect the moisture from entering, it is not worth using it.

It is necessary to prepare insulating material, lightweight and moisture-proof, as well as a soft and flexible carpet.

For side covers, a thicker phaneer should be used, as Furniture will be installed on them.

Use glue or sealant with a large temperature range for the insulation and carpet coating on the side walls. Because the van will be exposed to both the minus temperature and the hot summer sun. Also will affect the work of heating. In the case of the use of poor-quality glue, it is necessary to redo it again after a while.

Where to begin? Start sowing an autode, ranging from the roof and ending with the floor. First, mount the insulation and facing layers on the ceiling, then go to the side panels.

Use wooden planks on the floor to equip sufficient space for isolation. Reiki are attached to the floor with the help of the appropriate sealant. Then the layer of insulation is stacked, after which it should be covered with plywood. Plywood is fastened with sealant or screws.

Remember the water supply, as well as the need for laying electrical cables and gas tubes. Wires and hoses can be paved through isolation or under plywood lids, if you already know where all the devices will be installed.

Work on water supply

The house on the wheels should have the supply of cold running water. For this, two canisters with water are installed under the sink. The submersible pump provides water to the crane.

If you need warm water, extra sink or shower, the system will be more complex. You can install large water tanks in another place, for example, under the van. Support hoses to combine the entire system.

When you make an autode yourself, only fantasy limits you.

Do not forget about wastewater. You can set the appropriate tank under the car or pave the hose through the floor to merge water into the portable tank or the usual bucket.

Remember that the water used will terribly smell like in the summer and freezes in winter. Therefore, it is necessary to get rid of it as soon as possible, so the bucket can become an ideal solution.

What about the toilet? You can set one of the comfortable portable toilets.

Gas and electricity

IMPORTANT! Gas supply hoses and electrical wiring must be installed only by qualified specialists! In case of incorrect installation, they may be of serious danger. Make an autode on your own, but do not expose other people at risk.

Propane In Cepers can be used for cooking, heating, as well as refrigerator connections. You can do without it, using electric stove and refrigerator, as well as a stand-alone Webasto heater.

The gas cylinder must be stored in a separate location with holes at the bottom. Why is the hole be undeporting? Because propane is heavier than air, so it will always go down.

You can even make a valve to connect the gas stove outside the car to cook food outside the van in the future.

Again, build a camper right for your own security!

Electricity Need to launch all devices designed for 12V. The system consists of a battery, charger / converter, control panel and a plurality of wires.

Do not forget about the external connector, for charging the autodoma battery from the usual power grid (110V or 220V). You can also use it at home, charging acb during winter storage.

In order to determine which battery capacity you need, easy calculations will have to perform. Let's say you will use the following:

  • Halogen lamps: 2 × 20W 2 hours a day \u003d 80 WT⋅ch
  • Refrigerator: 45W 12 hours a day \u003d 540 VT⋅

The total power consumption is 620 VT). Now divide the 620 VT⋅ch by 12V and you will receive 52Ah. This is your daily power consumption. As a rule, the battery per 100Ah is enough for about two days of autonomous work.

Calculate, taking into account energy consumers you use. This will help you get the average power digits of electricity consumption.

Gas and electricity are very important issues that need to be considered during the construction of a camper. If you plan to send an auto toward travel away from civilization, autonomy should be maximum. Do not hurry, we carefully think over and calculate.

Furniture

In this question, nothing limits you. You can boldly realize your dreams. Make and install furniture in different ways.

Sometimes quite suitable furniture occurs on various disassembly, we advise you to search. Non-good offers sometimes appear on the Internet auctions, and the furniture is sometimes sold at quite an affordable price.

You can also design everything from scratch. Some firms sell ready-to-install parts, veneer coating. You will only have to apply lacquer (if necessary) and install furniture. You can also contact a professional who will help you in this matter.

Perhaps there are very few people who would not want to travel and at the same time spend the night at home without using the services of hotels or hotels. Many will say that it is impossible and any trip is accompanied by a hotel room. However, the solution is - an autod or a house on the wheels. You probably saw such mobile structures in foreign films. And it is not strange, because I will say in America, according to the statistics of each 3 inhabitant there is a house on wheels.

Such a house is not only convenient and comfortable, but also saves significantly, as the question of finding housing disappears. On the advantages of the Avtomom can be told for a long time, and there are really many of them. However, one minus is - the car-house on wheels is not from cheap pleasures. But if you have patience and hard work, there is a way out - build a mobile home on wheels with your own hands.

The main need for such a house is traveling, which can be easily sent with family and even small children. Autodom is useful for business trips, you will not have to search for hotels, book rooms, collect luggage and wear it with you.

The main thing is that the driver is experienced, with good driving experience and of course, with a positive attitude towards this type of transport.


House on wheels: What you need for comfort

Although the house will be in the form of mobile housing, but this does not mean that it should not be comfortable and satisfy the minimum needs of the owners.

Lighting at home

To supply light to the mobile home, it will be necessary:

  • battery battery type;
  • device charger;
  • wire system for subsequent electrical wiring;
  • panel for controlling electricity supply.


Heating for home

For housing heating, several types of heaters can be used, it may be an autonomous view and gas cylinder. Preferably the use of gas, since in addition to heat, it will provide the possibility of cooking.

If you have chosen heating with gas, then you will have to seek help from a specialist. Of course, to build everything with your own hands from beginning to end commendable, but you should remember the safety of passengers.

Air (ventilation) for home

Many of the car owners dream of their own auto farmers on wheels, thanks to which you can easily travel with your family in various places. But the purchase of a car can not always afford a family, so many make it independently. To do this, you will need a little:

But, in addition, it is necessary to have high-quality, and most importantly, a reliable vehicle that can accommodate an autode on wheels.

So what should I do? Before creating a camper with their own hands, a legal advice should be visited. Such modernization of the car requires legalization. For each country there are different requirements.

First step - Camper with your own hands

The whole process of creating such a design can be divided into several stages:

  • performing outdoor work;
  • fulfillment of internal works;
  • providing water supply cherry;
  • side and connecting the gasification and electricity system;
  • furniture placement;
  • small work.

After that you can travel on Keper at any free time.

Number of seats

As an example of creating a camper, we will take the usual average van. If the exercise of the van will be carried out with only two people, there will be plenty of space. If the family has more people, then it is necessary to think over an additional seats. Do not forget that all seats should be provided with seat belts.

Determine in advance how many beds will have your home on wheels. There is a very good option to increase them. Arrange inside bunk beds. You can also make a bed that will "fall out" from under the roof. This will help save the space of Ceper.

At this stage of layout, you must have a clear plan of the internal structure. Of course, it will be possible to make their own adjustments in the course of the installation, but the basis should be thought out to the smallest detail.

Performing outdoor work

First of all, take care of the purity of the inside of the camping. The zone should not contain dirt, dust, essential defects. This will be the key to the successful formation of the autoomom.

Also should be planned form in general terms. In addition to the plan, you can make sketches on paper.

The body part rarely has windows, which is catastrophically for a journey on the crepe. Place where it is best to install the windows for the most convenient view. In addition, they will open access to the stream of fresh air and allow the sun's rays to penetrate, which will create additional lighting. Windows You can choose absolutely different shapes, species and structures. Everything will depend exclusively on your preferences, as well as the features of the body part.

Additional holes in the body

When you create a camper with your own hands, do not forget to make several holes:

  • for the output of gas in case of his leakage;
  • for ventilation;
  • for output from the heater;
  • for filling gorlovin for water.

Of course, you can perform some of them after creating a camper, but it can be much more problematic. It is best to do everything at once and in advance. But it should be carried out only when you are exactly sure that these holes will be in those places.

The places with an open layer of metal should be immediately treated with a layer of primer to prevent corrosion.

Performance of internal work

How to equip inside a camper? It should create partitions between the front seats and the main part of the body. But if you wish, you can not do. Installation of the partition is also varied. It can be fixed with the help of screws or weld to the body itself. If necessary, at this stage, use the grinder.

During the operation of the Bulgarian, do not forget about security tools. Work with it neatly, especially if you use the tool for the first time. Do not forget to wear protective glasses on the eyes, as well as make sure in reliability of fixing the circle. Also, in the process of working with the grinder, sparks will fly, which when hitting the glass will create defects. Therefore, in advance to take care of reliably close it.

Insulation

The layer of insulation for mini-camper is very important. From its quality and proper installation will depend on the temperature inside, as well as sound insulation. A large number of materials from various firms are represented on the market. Their choice will be solely individual, based on the features of the environment, financial position, type of body.

Insulation must be cut into small pieces and gently stick them. The main feature and mainstream is the protection against moisture. If the insulation layer does not cope with its immediate duty, remove it.

Prepare to cover the case in advance:

On the side covers should use a thick layer of plywood. This is done so that it can withstand the weight of the furniture, which will be mounted directly on it.

On the side walls it is necessary to use glue, which can withstand a large range of different temperatures. With it, glue isolation and side walls. The glue for different temperatures is used because the van will be operated in various conditions: in severe frosts, and with a scorching summer sun. Additionally, heating is arranged. If the glue does not have all the necessary properties, then the sealant and the coating simply disappear.

Camper

The covering of the autoom from the roof itself begins and until the flooring. We first make installation of the insulating and facing layer and only after that smoothly go to if you will equip an exclusively winter camper, then the sealant layer should be increased and additionally seal.

To ensure a sufficient place for insulation, use wooden planks that are mounted to the floor. Fasteners must be performed using a special sealant corresponding to the coating. After that, laying a layer of isolation is made, and then they are covered with plywood. The plywood itself is attached with screws or sealants. Do not forget about the place of water supply, gas cables and electric cables.

Water supply

The prerequisite for water supply at home on wheels - it must have flow of flow water. To implement this, you should install a couple of canister with water under the sink. The installed pump will produce the necessary water flow to the crane.

If you wish, the camper can also be provided with hot water. It will be convenient if you wish to post a shower. To do this, it is necessary to put large tanks with water under car body. To connect the heating system, the acquisition and installation of additional hoses will be required.

Do not forget about wastewater. The conclusion can be carried out with the help of a hose placed in the floor, or produce water drain into a portable tank. Capacity should be emptied within the shortest possible time, since in the summer it will go from it and in the winter it will be simply frozen. You can also install a toilet.

Gasification and electricity

Installation of the hose for gas and electricians must be entrusted with extremely qualified specialists. With the slightest error of the independent installation, this can lead to a deplorable outcome.

Calon with propane can be used for cooking. You can do without it without it, replacing the container on the usual electric stove. Store the cylinder is necessary in a separate place.

The cherry electricity system consists of a charger, battery, control panels and wire system.

Gasification and electricity in an "Camper-Trailer" type is played by a very important role. In the case of departure to nature, the autonomy of both systems should be at the maximum level.

Furniture

If you wish, you can use absolutely any furniture as you like. You can purchase elements of new furniture or design and make it yourself.

Almost everyone who has a camper, feedback leaves exceptionally positive. You can create not only a small family-friendly car on wheels. It is also quite realistic to make huge off-road campers. The choice is yours!

A car on the wheels, and even equipped with your own hands, is the dream of many lovers of auto travel and outdoor activities in nature. It provides its owner an amazing freedom when traveling, freeing from the need to search and book a hotel, acquire tickets, pack the suitcases, etc. In addition, its own car can easily travel even a large family, including pets - for this it is necessary to use appropriate furniture , as a rule, transforming.

When for the first time appeared on the road an auto trailer on wheels to answer rather difficult. The first such experience was implemented by Jennings in the 38th year of the last century, although homemade samples of highways appeared much earlier. All autodoma on wheels can be equipped with almost all the necessary attributes of the usual and comfortable life - a bathroom, shower, a gas stove, a full-fledged bedroom, which are present even in the smallest auto-volumes, as the basis of which budget Gazelle is often held in Russia.

Depending on what kind of motor belongs to the wheel on wheels, it can be:

  • trailed;
  • van;
  • combined.

A fairly common practice is currently the personnel re-equipment of suitable transport, the same domestic gazelle, in comfortable auto-volume for travel. But before making an autode on wheels with their own hands, it is necessary to determine the main goal of re-equipment - long or short-term accommodation in the auto house, as well as pick up or make appropriate furniture.


Autodom - Comfort Categories

According to the generally accepted classification, all autooms on wheels are divided into three main class.

Attention! Any autod class "A", made on the basis of a bus or truck, according to the transport classification requires the rights of the category "C" by the driver.

Speaking about the classification of the "Wheel House", the following concepts should be highlighted:

House Tent - Comfort and Easy

The homemade autode on wheels does not necessarily have to be expensive and complex in the manufacture, especially if it is used relatively rarely and for a small number of people. Some types of highways do not even require the installation of furniture, and are used as a bed. In order to independently make an autode trailer, you will need to make certain efforts and a sufficient amount of time.


The main "power" element of such a car - frame, can be purchased at a finished form, or to assemble it yourself, for which the skill and certain technical knowledge will be required. With independent manufacture, special attention should be paid to the anti-corrosion processing of all steel elements of the future autodoma.


The frame, mounted on the chassis prepared for the autodoma, can be both steel and wooden. The focus on its creation should be given to the quality of the compounds of parts, since when such a trailer-autodoma is moved, the entire design will be subjected to serious dynamic and vibration loads. Inside such an autodoma, you can position a sufficiently convenient bed, and at the time of stops on vacation, the construction of the autoomom is unfolded, and the tent is quickly installed on top. Such an autode on the wheels, the photos of which is presented below, is optimal for short trips and easy-to-go outdoors.


Another option of such a trailer can be viewed on the video:

How to make an autode on wheels do it yourself

In order to make an autode on wheels with your own hands, you can use any minibus, a cargo car or even a bus. In order to create it, you will need to make a lot of effort, time, and be prepared for quite serious material investments, which subsequently pay upon comfort when traveling in its own auto farm.


The process of turning the standard Gazelles in an autode on wheels will necessarily be accompanied by a number of works that are mandatory:

In the case when the wheels trailer house is created for long-term travel, it is desirable to provide for a good audio video system and satellite TV. If financial capabilities allow, it will be a good option to install solar panels that will extend the resource of the generator.

Attention! In most cases, the re-equipment of the vehicle in the trailer Avtodom requires to pre-bind all the "alterations" to avoid legal problems in the future.


Internal work

Many lovers travel comfortably interested in the question - how much costs authod on wheels in Russia, but learning the cost of the finished option prefers to engage in the creation of the autodoma with their own hands. And this is not deprived of meaning, because to make a car on wheels from Gazelle with their own hands by any person, ready to attach a certain amount of effort and spend its time.


The first thing that will be required to be made inside the cabin of the future autodoma on wheels is to dismantle the partition located behind the passenger seats. If it is attached by bolts, there will be no problems if the welded connection is used, the Bulgarian will be required. After dismantling, you should completely free the interior from the interior decoration. In parallel, it is worth checking the metal parts for the presence of corrosion foci. Take measures to eliminate them remembering that it will be much more difficult to disassemble the finished car.

Before proceeding with the insulation and interior of the autoomom, it is necessary to thoroughly consider the water and power supply system, since all pipes and electrical cables are better hidden under the trim - this will avoid their accidental damage. After that, an autode on wheels on the basis of Gazelle requires serious insulation. In addition to special materials with vibration insulating characteristics, basalt mineral wool or extruded polystyrene foam can be used for auto far.


An important moment in the autodoma finish on wheels inside and outside is the protective processing of the material used. Thus, additional metal elements outside the autodoma must have high-quality anti-corrosion processing. The elements of the internal object are performed, as a rule, from wood. To process them, it is recommended to use a special flame-protected impregnation, which will prevent the spread of the flame, will not allow the fungus to form, to get rid of which it can be simply impossible.

Certain ideas for creating your own project can be "borrow" from manufacturers of such houses, looking at the following video:

Gas and electrical equipment should be entrusted to professionals

Any car on wheels - Mercedes or Gazelle requires a special relationship in terms of electricity supply. It is not necessary to naively believe that, without having an appropriate formation, you can qualitatively perform electrical wiring and install the appropriate equipment in the autode. The same applies to gas equipment.

For example, few people know that for a gas cylinder in any auto house, it is necessary to "highlight" a separate closed zone, at the bottom of which the holes communicate with the outer atmosphere should be present. This is allowed to allow propane, which is heavier than air, when leakage from the balloon "leave" an autode on wheels, and not cause poisoning or fire in the cabin.

An important point for the autodoma is the correct calculation of the battery power. To ensure maximum autonomy, you should summarize the daily power consumption of all devices present in the autodomome. The resulting value in watts will be required to divide by 12 (V), resulting in a value in amps-hours (AH) - it is precisely it is indicated on the battery and allows you to judge its power. So, when energy consumption in an autodomome 50-60 AH / day, optimally acquire a battery in 120-150 AH. Such a car machine on wheels will be able to function offline two days. It is advisable to provide an external socket to recharging the autodoma battery in the parking lots.


Furniture for home-van on wheels

Despite the fact that it will not be a problem in the purchase of finished furniture for autoomom, according to reviews, it is not able to satisfy all the requests of the car owners, especially creating an authome on wheels on their own drawings. Therefore, the optimal option becomes either its independent manufacture, or an individual order on furniture production.


In most cases, an independent manufacture of furniture is more optimal. Since for a small car, for example, on the basis of standard Gazelle or UAZ, furniture will not need much, and it is not different, and it is not different, at this stage of work you can save. For a proper level of comfort in the auto house, as a rule, the following furniture structures are manufactured:

When a KAMAZ or bus is taken as a base for auto-volume, the number of furniture listed above increases. Made by an autode on wheels with their own hands, to facilitate the task of determining the type and number of furniture, you can use special computer programs, or draw a detailed plan for the future planning of the Avtomom on paper, where it is clear not only the type of furniture, but also its location.

Make a house on wheels with your own hands - the task is not very difficult for any master. The design, along the construction, will be improved and due to this period of manufacture can be delayed. To prevent such a situation, you need to think over the interior design in advance, get rid of unsuitable elements. Such an approach is important when re-equipping small vehicles when assembling a house on wheels, for example from an old trailer.

The house on wheels is the type of transport that is simultaneously housing and a means of movement. Its popularity of this kind of accommodation gained at the beginning of the last century.

Autodoma device

According to standards, a mobile home must accommodate eight people. For each tenant, its sleeping place is provided, there is still a small kitchen. The rest of the convenience and equipment may vary depending on the specific model, but in most cases there are also:


In more expensive models there is a bathroom consisting of (often replacing a chair, which gives several additional meters of free space), washbasin and soul. Sometimes mobile homes are equipped with shower cabins.

Note! In the auto house, the driver's and passenger seats are mobile, as a result of which, during the parking lot, turn into an addition to the living space. In the tail is often equipped with a separate room with U-shaped furniture.



History

Serial production of mobile homes was launched in the last century, although some historians believe that there were earlier homemade analogues. They were small vans equipped for people living (mostly cattle breeders).

The first house on the wheels established on the usual car chassis was introduced in 1938 by Jennings.

Varieties of mobile homes

There are several high-class classifications. So, according to the features of the design, allocate:


Depending on the purpose, they are divided into:

  • those that are used as long-term / permanent housing;
  • those that are used for travel.

In the first case, there are more comfortable conditions, while often moving structures are extremely rarely divided into the living area itself and the cabin.

Categories


Consider in detail each of the categories.

C-Class

Small-sized houses that are meant for short travel. It is usually made on the basis of SUVs, so the cabin can be in a double bed (if desired).


Teardrop Camper - Dacha on the trailer

In-class

The only difference between it and the C-class is a sleeping place - it is stationary and located in the tail of the transport. Eliminates great popularity among young couples (at least in America).

A-Class

Such houses, externally similar to the usual bus, are the most comfortable and, therefore, the most expensive. They are built on the basis of trucks, therefore, from the point of view of transport classification, they refer to the category "C".

They are distinguished by a large windshield, a fixed driving chair and retractable partitions forming different zones and separate bedrooms. Moreover, such designs are autonomous, equipped with a generator, have gas and a large supply of water.

Several additional categories can be distinguished.



About title

Under the term "Autodom" (another name - "Ceper") often implies a car caravan.

Note! Campers are called C-C-Class trailers, while the houses on the wheels are exclusively models of the A-class.

It is also worth noting that in individual countries, everything without exception is called Vinebago.


To convert the car to the house on wheels, you will need a lot of time and effort, as well as the appropriate equipment.


Note! Initially, this question should be explored from the point of view of legislation. Different registering organizations perceive self-made autodomes in different ways, and it will be unpleasant if the transport in the end is illegal.

Stage 1. Initially, the number of tenants is determined and, based on this, a vehicle and an internal "filling" is selected. A detailed design of the design is compiled - this can be done on paper, but it is better to use the computer.


Stage 2. Next clears the body of the car. If dents were detected, they are removed, and the peeling paint is considered. Multiple windows are equipped (if there were no) in the housing for lighting and receipt of fresh air.


Step 3. The ventilation openings and gas supply valves are cut. All plots of "naked" metal are covered with primer to protect against corrosion and aggressive environmental impact.

Stage 4. The house is separated by thermal insulation M material.




Note! To do this, you need to use exceptionally high-quality materials, saving extremely undesirable. In addition, the material from which hardware is made (metal fasteners) should be similar metal body metal - this is for additional rusting protection.

Stage 5. Put the inner surface of the autodoma.


  • carpet covering;
  • moist-resistant faeer.

Thick panels are inserted into the side walls with gripped plackets for mounting furniture. It is characteristic that at first it is better to level the ceiling, and after that move to the walls.


Step 6. After installing furniture, it is necessary to take care of water supply. To do this, you can install a few canister with water under the sink and install small pumps. In addition, you can put large tanks - for example, for the adoption of the soul.



Note! Do not forget about wastewater - for this, another tank is installed. As a toilet, you can use a conventional garden structure.

Stage 7. For cooking and heating, as noted earlier, it is better to use gas propane. The cylinder is placed at the bottom of the body, as well as an additional hole for ventilation. This is explained simple enough: the weight of propane is more than air, therefore, in case of leakage, such security measures will prevent sad consequences.

Stage 8. It remains only to take care of the power supply. The optimal option is a powerful rechargeable battery equipped with an outdoor exit for charging.








Mobile home from an old trailer

Trailer trailer We cost about 500,000 rubles. The amount is impressive, so if you can buy an old car trailer, you can build a small car with your own hands. This will require:

  • trailer (necessarily with a strong chassis);
  • wooden elements (rails, bars, carriages);
  • plywood;
  • metal photograph (for roof);
  • fittings made in one style;
  • set of appropriate tools.

Manufacturing technology

Such an autode will be a trailer with in the rear. By the way, the bed is better to do on the entire width of the design - so it will connect the side walls and strengthen the stiffness. The erker window will be made later and equipped with an individual block. The door is set by a Dutch type - it will consist of two halves.

Stage 1. The trailer disassembled, the chassis is carefully cleaned and covered with anti-corrosion paint. Frames are built from pine boards, backups are cut in the appropriate places.

Stage 2. From the rails with a cross section 2x2 cm, a frame is built, in each corner an oak rail is installed in cross section 3x3 cm. From above, the frame is suspended with a horizontal rail.

Note! For thermal insulation, you can lay the lining with two layers.

Stage 3. The floor is covered with plywood sheets. For the roof, bars from a poplar are used - they are screwed along the frame with a step of 30 cm. On the bars, plywood is fixed, on top of which moisture-resistant material and a small cross section.

Stage 4. In the case there will be only one window (if the door is not taken into account) - at the top of the rear wall. It is advisable to perform the window in the form of an erker.

The door lock in such structures is located below, but you can put another one - extra - on top. In addition, the door is equipped with a small bedroom window.

Stage 5. It is recommended to equip the table extending from under the bed (as it was once in the trains of Great Britain). For this, the bed is formed special drawers-Runduki. By the way, the lower space can also be used as a sleeping place.

In addition, shelves and a removable staircase are built from the tree.

Letter of the law

No additional permission is required if the dimensions of the houses on the wheels will not exceed:

  • 400 cm in height;
  • 255 cm in width;
  • 100 cm long (excluding the part that does not protrude beyond the trailer).

If the dimensions are more, then the authod is transported by specials (flashers, accompaniment, etc.). Of course, this applies only to the trailer trailer Am.

Business organization on mobile homes


On the construction of auto houses you can organize your own business. There are four options for the development of such business.

Option number 1. Making houses for sale for summer holidays or accommodation in the country. This will not require serious material costs, since at home will be simplified design - for example, without insulation.

Option number 2. Give houses on wheels for rent. This is a relatively new business, and for everything new can be very expensive. The number of highways in this case is increasing as the client base grows.

Option number 3. Making mobile snack bars or shops.

Option number 4. He is the most interesting. It is to create a fleet and its further use as a hotel. Here the main thing is to divide the trays to the budget, premium and middle class.

A car on the wheels, and even equipped with your own hands, is the dream of many lovers of auto travel and outdoor activities in nature. It provides its owner an amazing freedom when traveling, freeing from the need to search and book a hotel, acquire tickets, pack the suitcases, etc. In addition, its own car can easily travel even a large family, including pets - for this it is necessary to use appropriate furniture , as a rule, transforming.

When for the first time appeared on the road an auto trailer on wheels to answer rather difficult. The first such experience was implemented by Jennings in the 38th year of the last century, although homemade samples of highways appeared much earlier. All autoomom on wheels can be equipped with almost all the necessary attributes of the usual and comfortable life - Bathroom, shower, gas stove, full-fledged sleeping placethat are present even in the smallest auto-volumes that budget Gazelle is often taken as the basis of which in Russia.

Depending on what kind of motor belongs to the wheel on wheels, it can be:

  • trailed;
  • van;
  • combined.

A fairly common practice is currently the personnel re-equipment of suitable transport, the same domestic gazelle, in comfortable auto-volume for travel. But before making an autode on wheels with their own hands, it is necessary to determine the main goal of re-equipment - long or short-term accommodation in the auto house, as well as pick up or make appropriate furniture.

Classes of houses on wheels

According to the generally accepted classification, all autooms on wheels are divided into three main classes:


Attention! Any autod class "A", made on the basis of a bus or truck, according to the transport classification requires the rights of the category "C" by the driver.

Speaking about the classification of the "Wheel House", the following concepts should be highlighted:


Tent trailer

The homemade autode on wheels does not necessarily have to be expensive and complex in the manufacture, especially if it is used relatively rarely and for a small number of people. Some types of highways do not even require the installation of furniture, and are used as a bed. In order to independently make an autode trailer, you will need to make certain efforts and a sufficient amount of time.

The main "power" element of such a car - frame, can be purchased at a finished form, or to assemble it yourself, for which the skill and certain technical knowledge will be required. With independent manufacture, special attention should be paid to the anti-corrosion processing of all steel elements of the future autodoma.

The frame, mounted on the chassis prepared for the autodoma, can be both steel and wooden. The focus on its creation should be given to the quality of the compounds of parts, since when such a trailer-autodoma is moved, the entire design will be subjected to serious dynamic and vibration loads. Inside such an autodoma, you can position a sufficiently convenient bed, and at the time of stops on vacation, the construction of the autoomom is unfolded, and the tent is quickly installed on top. Such an autode on the wheels, the photos of which is presented below, is optimal for short trips and easy-to-go outdoors.

Another option of such a trailer can be viewed on the video:

How to make an autode on wheels do it yourself

In order to make an autode on wheels with your own hands, you can use any minibus, a cargo car or even a bus. In order to create it, you will need to make a lot of effort, time, and be prepared for quite serious material investments, which subsequently pay upon comfort when traveling in its own auto farm.

The process of turning the standard Gazelles in an autode on wheels will necessarily be accompanied by a number of works that are mandatory:


In the case when the trailer house on wheels is created with the goal of long journeys, it is advisable to provide for a good audio video system and satellite TV. If financial capabilities allow, it will be a good option to install solar panels that will extend the resource of the generator.

Attention! In most cases, the re-equipment of the vehicle in the trailer Avtodom requires to pre-bind all the "alterations" to avoid legal problems in the future.

Internal work

Many lovers travel comfortably interested in the question - how much costs authod on wheels in Russia, but learning the cost of the finished option prefers to engage in the creation of the autodoma with their own hands. And this is not deprived of meaning, because to make a car on wheels from Gazelle with their own hands by any person, ready to attach a certain amount of effort and spend its time.

The first thing that will be required to be made inside the cabin of the future autodoma on wheels is to dismantle the partition located behind the passenger seats. If it is attached by bolts, there will be no problems if the welded connection is used, the Bulgarian will be required. After dismantling, you should completely free the interior from the interior decoration. In parallel, it is worth checking the metal parts for the presence of corrosion foci. Take measures to eliminate them remembering that it will be much more difficult to disassemble the finished car.

Before proceeding with the insulation and interior of the autodoma, it is necessary to thoroughly consider the water and power supply system, Since all pipes and electrical cables are better hidden under the trim - it will avoid their accidental damage. After that, an autode on wheels on the basis of Gazelle requires serious insulation. In addition to special materials with vibration insulating characteristics, basalt mineral wool or extruded polystyrene foam can be used for auto far.

An important moment in the autodoma finish on wheels inside and outside is the protective processing of the material used. Thus, additional metal elements outside the autodoma must have high-quality anti-corrosion processing. The elements of the internal object are performed, as a rule, from wood. To process them, it is recommended to use a special flame-protected impregnation, which will prevent the spread of the flame, will not allow the fungus to form, to get rid of which it can be simply impossible.

Certain ideas for creating your own project can be "borrow" from manufacturers of such houses, looking at the following video:

Gas and electric equipment

Any car on wheels - Mercedes or Gazelle requires a special relationship in terms of electricity supply. It is not necessary to naively believe that, without having an appropriate formation, you can qualitatively perform electrical wiring and install the appropriate equipment in the autode. The same applies to gas equipment.

For example, few people know that for a gas cylinder in any auto house, it is necessary to "highlight" a separate closed zone, at the bottom of which the holes communicate with the outer atmosphere should be present. This is allowed to allow propane, which is heavier than air, when leakage from the balloon "leave" an autode on wheels, and not cause poisoning or fire in the cabin.

An important point for the autodoma is the correct calculation of the battery power. To ensure maximum autonomy, you should summarize the daily power consumption of all devices present in the autodomome. The resulting value in watts will be required to divide by 12 (V), resulting in a value in amps-hours (AH) - it is precisely it is indicated on the battery and allows you to judge its power. So, When energy consumption in an auto-volume 50-60 AH / day, optimally acquire a battery in 120-150 AH. Such a car machine on wheels will be able to function offline two days. It is advisable to provide an external socket to recharging the autodoma battery in the parking lots.

Furniture

Despite the fact that it will not be a problem in the purchase of finished furniture for autoomom, according to reviews, it is not able to satisfy all the requests of the car owners, especially creating an authome on wheels on their own drawings. Therefore, the optimal option becomes either its independent manufacture, or an individual order on furniture production.

In most cases, an independent manufacture of furniture is more optimal. Since for a small car, for example, on the basis of standard Gazelle or UAZ, furniture will not need much, and it is not different, and it is not different, at this stage of work you can save. For a proper level of comfort in the auto house, as a rule, the following furniture structures are manufactured:

  • dining table, to save space in a small auto house, it is better to use a foldable option;
  • kitchen table with washing and working surface;
  • open shelves or boxes located under the Ceiling of Avtomoma;
  • in the presence of a toilet in the autodomy on the wheels, it will be necessary to make a partition with a door.

When a KAMAZ or bus is taken as a base for auto-volume, the number of furniture listed above increases. Made by an autode on wheels with their own hands, to facilitate the task of determining the type and number of furniture, you can use special computer programs, or draw a detailed plan for the future planning of the Avtomom on paper, where it is clear not only the type of furniture, but also its location.

How can the most expensive house on wheels can be done in the photo - perfectly visible how exquisite and comfortable can be interior decoration.

Construction house on wheels do it yourself, it is worth paying attention to the quality of materials. So for furniture It is advisable to use moisture-resistant materials resistant to household chemicalsBecause cleaning in any type of autoomom - from the bus, trailer or gazelles, often often.

Perhaps there are very few people who would not want to travel and at the same time spend the night at home without using the services of hotels or hotels. Many will say that it is impossible and any trip is accompanied by a hotel room. However, the solution is - an autod or a house on the wheels. You probably saw such mobile structures in foreign films. And it is not strange, because I will say in America, according to the statistics of each 3 inhabitant there is a house on wheels.

Such a house is not only convenient and comfortable, but also saves money, as the question of the search for housing disappears. On the advantages of the Avtomom can be told for a long time, and there are really many of them. However, one minus is - the car-house on wheels is not from cheap pleasures. But if you have patience and hard work, there is a way out - build a mobile home on wheels with your own hands.

The main need for such a house is traveling, which can be easily sent with family and even small children. Autodom is useful for business trips, you will not have to search for hotels, book rooms, collect luggage and wear it with you.

The main thing is that the driver is experienced, with good driving experience and of course, with a positive attitude towards this type of transport.

House on wheels: What you need for comfort

Although the house will be in the form of mobile housing, but this does not mean that it should not be comfortable and satisfy the minimum needs of the owners.

Lighting at home

To supply light to the mobile home, it will be necessary:

  • battery battery type;
  • device charger;
  • wire system for subsequent electrical wiring;
  • panel for controlling electricity supply.

Heating for home

For housing heating, several types of heaters can be used, it may be an autonomous view and gas cylinder. Preferably the use of gas, since in addition to heat, it will provide the possibility of cooking.

If you have chosen heating with gas, then you will have to seek help from a specialist. Of course, to build everything with your own hands from beginning to end commendable, but you should remember the safety of passengers.

Air (ventilation) for home

Very important point is ventilation, especially when using gas. In this case, the holes must be several, and one of them will be as low as possible.

For comfort: water, bathroom, kitchen

No accommodation will be comfortable if it is missing elementary amenities. Well think about exactly where the kitchen will be portable to the size of the "mini" and shower. Also do not forget about tanks with water and pumps for it.

Water that will merge, better send to a large bucket located under the body. To do this, you can use a special hose to be paved in the floor.

Furniture for auto farm

With furniture can occur certain difficulties, because it should be as compact as possible. For such housing, a folding furniture is used, it is fixed on the walls. Purchase such furniture in most cases is possible only to order, which is sufficiently expensive. But if you can make it yourself, it will significantly save funds.

Optional: Doors, windows

As for windows, it is better to do at least 2, so you can save energy and do not include light in the afternoon.

It is necessary to take into account the fact that if the house is constructed from the trailer, the width and height of course should not exceed the dimensions of the car.

Build an autode from Gazelle

If you are the owner of a domestic minibus, which has not liked it for a long time, it can be safely used as the main material for mobile housing. At first, it is necessary to carefully clean it, remove unnecessary seats, the jet is upholstery, get rid of all too much. After clearing, you can begin to do the necessary holes (for windows, ventilation, wires).

The metal part, which is inside, is well covered with a primer mixture to protect against moisture and rust. Next, you can proceed to the flooring of the floor and wall material for thermal insulation. Watch that the material itself is laid smoothly and tight. After you can proceed to finishing the inside of the house plywood you go to another coating.

It is very important to pay attention to the quality of thermal insulation and subsequent coating. All materials must be high quality and respond to all standards. That is how your gazelle and part-time the house on the wheels will last long.

The next important stage will be the conduct of electricity and gas. When these two points are successfully completed, you can start installing tanks with water, bathroom and furniture.

On this, it can be said that the trailer - the house on the wheels is ready. Now you can safely be poisoned on a trip with amenities and comfort.

Build a house on the wheels from the trailer

We will not deny that build an autode from the trailer is not more difficult than from Gazelle. The main difficulty is that walls and ceiling need to be built from scratch, unlike a minibus.

The first step will be the cleaning of the trailer, chassis, paint covering, preventing the appearance of corrosion. After that cover the frame with a dense layer of plywood. Drills holes: frame, timber, plywood and crepim with bolts.
