For Sale Camping trailer project

[taxi paul]

If you are sleeping in it I would get some garden cane or old bendy tent poles and put them inside bent upwards. This should provide a bit more tension in the cover, whilst lifting it a bit. Because rain on a flat cover ain't good.

Apart from wiring the indicators the wrong way round, but easily sorted.

 

You're going to tow it upside down?

[Richard]

Not at first.

Looks a well made wee thing. Do you have steadies for the back or is that the idea. Wake up, slide to the back and roll out?

 

Thanks, no steadies as it's planned to always be attached to the car while in use. CoG is towards the front anyway so might be able to get away with it unhitched...

So what's the plan then Mat?

We wait for you to be horizontal on the floor near the camp fire (about 10.30pm), then three or four of us heave you into your wooden box and strap the lid on, then you arise from under your tarp at the first sniff of square sausage, more bright-eyed and bushy tailed than any of the rest of us?

Would anybody be interested in this? Say £450 with a pair of new tyres. It's just not seeing any use - twice since I built it!

Wow, that’s proper awesome. I defo would, but currently povo. Maybe if it hangs around for a bit...

Twin exhausts as well!

I'm not in a rush to sell, but it struck me that I could use the money more effectively than I'm using the trailer! Especially now I have the iLoad van.

 

It feels like it's too nice to use as a trailer for carting around rubbish, but doesn't offer much more than a tent for camping in, given that my speed is restricted when towing it. So kind of the worst of both worlds!
