In this video, we create our DIY shaker cabinets for camper vans and cargo trailers. We made our cabinets from birch plywood with a fake shaker effect by gluing addition wood on top. Check out part one of this two part series to see how we did it.

Be sure to check out our aluminum extrusion series to learn everything you need to know about framing cabinetry. Here’s a link to the playlist:    • Aluminum Cabinetry - Part 1: Profiles...  

As part of our journey to turn a 7x14 foot cargo trailer into a fully customized DIY camper / tiny home, we mounted wooden panels onto aluminum extrusion. It was a huge learning curve and hopefully this video will teach you everything you need to know about assembly.

We hope you enjoy this video and learn something along the way. For full details, helpful how-to’s, and in-depth build guides, check out our website and start your own DIY cargo trailer camper conversion!
