DIY Projects

The images below are just a few of the wide range of projects our customers have designed and built.

No matter what size or shape your idea is, many DIY customers design and build impressive projects with quality products at unbeatable prices from DIY Caravans.

Mr. J – Custom Caravan Build – QLD

Mr. J embarked on a journey to build his own caravan and took it through some of the toughest terrain, including the Gibb River Road. Despite the challenging conditions, his caravan held up impressively with minimal issues. After 9000 km across North Queensland, the van only needed a wash, showcasing the durability and quality of the build.

Mr B – Specialist Caravan – VIC 3550

To build a project that is disability friendly is hard enough with many specialist items – and to build it for yourself is even more impressive.

Mr V – Off-road Motorhome – QLD 4554

Mr & Mrs D – Off-road Camper – Qld 4740

This customer sent his panel drawings to DIY Caravans in 2019 and now in 2022 the project is complete. Very high quality build and now time for their first adventure.

Mr H – Teardrop Camper – Qld 4558

Mr S -Compact Family Van – Vic 3803

Mr C – Off-road Caravan – Vic 3945

Using a range of components from DIY Caravans including a Cruisemaster suspension kit and Composite Panel kit B, the attention to detail in this customer design is impressive in the building of this off-road light-weight pop-top caravan.

“Nick is always happy to help, and his prices were the best I could find.” – Andrew C

Mr S – Off-road Motorhome – NSW 2550

Mr F – Off Grid 7.2m Caravan – Qld 4680

DIY customers often build projects of a quality rarely found in the RV industry. Not only is their design unique and specific for their needs, but the attention to detail in the build is equally impressive. The project becomes a labour of love and the result almost priceless.

Graham F is a fine example of this. Working in the mines in Northern Queensland, Graham used his skills and his weeks off to build his dream caravan. In this case DIY Caravans provided a set of drawings from one of our tried and tested designs which Graham modified to create the floorplan he required. DIY Caravans is a proud supplier of components of the highest quality available in Australia such as Cruisemaster ATX Air Suspension and a Composite Panel Kit with DIAB perforated pvc cores.

With a floor length of 7.2m and an ATM of 3.5 tonnes Graham’s design includes a large lounge slide-out, a solar system with lithium batteries and inverter for off-grid living in his home away from home.

An inspiration to many DIY customers – fine work Graham!

Customer Facebook review

“Understand that our project is a DIY build of note! Having spoken to a number of panel producers, Nick at DIY Caravans certainly spoke our language.

The information provided both face to face, telephonic and on their website is priceless. When mistakes were made from my inaccurate measurements, they were noticed before any quotes or production started and I was corrected by the “Master”. Collection was easy and well-organised.

Assembly was a days work and a carton for the Mates that helped.
Additionally products, AC and Loo prices were unbeatable by anyone and arrived safe and sound. I would highly recommend DIY Caravans as a one stop build shop!”

Nick was excellent in providing support for this project. Nothing was too much trouble and valuable suggestions were provided by Nick during the design and construction stages. The final build exceeded expectations. DIY Caravans products were high quality and delivered on time. They were a pleasure to deal with. I would not hesitate to use them again. Alan P
