It‘s home made. Jake Keller _ doesn‘t think it such an unusual feat to have built his trailâ€" er from scratch. Two years ago he decided he didn‘t want he and his wife to spend the rest of their campâ€" ing days in a tent so a trailer was in order. Since he had heard of other peoâ€" ple building their own trailers, he thought he would do the same. The interior of the 19 foot long trailer is completed and Mr. Keller is doing the inside finishing work now which he expects to have done by next spring, just in time to take the trailer on a trip to western Canada. For some reason, anyâ€" thing home made is expectâ€" ed to look that way. But a quick glance at Mr. Keller‘s trailer gives no indication that he did not in fact buy it off a local dealer. Any difference the trailer may have is in the little features he has added which he thinks is an improvement over mass produced trailâ€" ers. His experiences from inâ€" specting other trailers beâ€" ing sold has brought Mr. Keller to feel most are inâ€" adequate in their frame construction and lighting. He made his frame strongâ€" er by increasing the steel size and brightened up the interior by adding another light and by having more window allotment. Mr. Keller will admit that building a trailer is quite an undertaking for someone not familiar with that kind of work. A meâ€" chanic by _ trade, Mr. Keller got most of his maâ€" terials from local wrecking yards and from keeping aware of how to get what he needed as cheaply as possible. For anyone with thoughts of doing what he did though, Mr. Keller warned a perâ€" son should be mechanically minded and he suggested the work should be done in an enclosed building. ‘‘You have to sort of bum around," Mr. Keller said, "If you start paying top dollar for your materials then you will never come out ahead." ‘"I kind of went backâ€" wards with mine and that is the hardest way."" Mr. Kelâ€" ler said, "I built the floor of the trailer first and then built the shell and Although he is not an acâ€" complished carpenter, the cupboards, Mr. Keller has already built inside his trailer, do not bear the marks of an amateur. He said to avoid this he does not use expensive wood which becomes dama“ when bumped and looks when not worked with properly. placed it on the floor. This was the easiest way for me to do it because when I want to do the inside this winter, I will be protected. The easier way to do it though is to do the inside first such as the cupboards and such. Then place the frame around it." When asked what the hardest part of the project was Mr. Keller laughed and said getting down to doing it, but then added seriously that it was difficult to deâ€" cide what you want to put into it. ‘Basically I gues," he said, ‘"its‘ hard to think about what you want and when it should be done in relation to the other work. "It is harder to do the inâ€" side work because it reâ€" quires a cabinet maker. I tried to hire someone to do it but it was decided I best do it on my own since that is the only way to get exactâ€" ly what I want." Instead he built his cupâ€" boards ‘with plane wood and as he said, ‘"covered my sins with arbourite." . Mr. Keller, and his wife 1ave tested the trailer mce this summer, going camping and making do with what work was done on the inside. With the worry out of the way as to whether or not the trailer is road worthy, Mr. Keller can settle down to the work ahead of him this winter. When spring comes and the more than two years of spare hour work is over the Kellers will have a quality trailer with having paid only half the price.
