Yes I have a home made rooftop camper (not by me). Found it on ebay about 5 years ago. Always wanted a rooftop camper but didn't want to spend the $$$ that the maggiolinas etc were going for. (and they're too heavy IMO). This one is awesome quality made from aluminium checkerplate, all corners welded. Heavy canvas with skirts so sheds water perfectly during rain. Huge internal flaps both sides and at end for variable ventilation. Insect screens all round. Not sure how much it weighs but is light (i can lift it up and down by myself, albeit a little ungainly!). Probably about 30kg. I lined it inside top and bottom with marine carpet so condensation isn't an issue any more. I don't feel it offroad or on the highway and makes no wind noise. Mattress, doona and pillows stay in there. Set up in 30 seconds. Pack up in about 2 minutes. Gas struts need replacing. You wont see me in a swag again!
