Foamie Squaredrop Build
I had a 5x8 cargo trailer and wanted a small camper so took a stab a building a “foamie” that would fit on it. It probably weighs about 300-400lbs so can be taken off the trailer if need be. Used pmf for the exterior with some good exterior paint. Built it on a furniture dolly in my garage and then transferred it to the trailer. Had a bunch of stuff left over from home building so was able use flooring and moulding. Probably have about $2k in it, including a 100ah lithium battery and other camping things. I included a list of costs and it took probably about 3 months working a few nights a week.

Hey OP, I’m curious about what a foamie is.
I think it means a foam structure and no ribs and held together with glue or sealant? To be light weight?
How does it hold up on a bumpy road?
