Atomic Camper by Bill Guernsey

Anchorage guy builds "Atomic Camper" while recuperating from plane crash.
"Guernsey built the camper over the course of two years. That’s not two years of weekends and after work. “About six hours a day, six days a week. Whatever that works out to,” Guernsey said. And in an odd way, his injuries helped.
“A lot of the people notice the detail in there. I did a lot of that when I was in recovery because it’s just small bench work that you could sit or stand and just make little things,” he said. "You can work on the details that you wouldn’t otherwise bother with."
Guernsey has always been a builder, a maker. It’s in his DNA. His grandfather on one side was a carpenter and cabinet builder; the grandfather on the other side was a woodworker and steelworker. Their credo: “Build it, make it, do it.”"
