I decided to build my own non-cabover minimalist truck camper to fit my 6.5” 1/2 ton truck. The reason for the truck camper as opposed to a pull-behind is that I plan to tow a boat. As of today the framing is essentially complete.
Im going to start on the roof tomorrow. |

The new progress looks great. You might consider using CPES, clear penetrating epoxy sealer on everything inside and outside on the frame and sheathing at this point. It is a thin penetrating epoxy that does not let any moisture in. It is used a lot in wood boats, new and restorations. I think the Smith Brothers brand is the best of what is out there. It is a little pricey but will keep any rot at bay for MANY years.
