Ramp room?
Posted: Fri Dec 17, 2010 3:27 pm
So I have been going back and forth on this as to I know you can simply buy one premade, but I don’t know about fitment and durability..
I figured for the price tag I could build something better.. So here we go!
I am very much open to criticism or concerns so please let me know if there is anything that jumps out to you to possible be fixed or if you just know something that would work better or cheaper
Let me know what you all think!
So here are some simple drawn up plans that I have:
(please disregard the noted spelling errors in my illustrations)
Starting off with some simple design / layout: My trailer is a 6 x 11 I think! I used to have some pictures of my original design / build but my Photobucket got cleared out.. My original design was similar to below without the tongue box and instead of the table / bed I had a Murphy style bed in its place to give you a idea.
Tongue Box / Power Box
Trailer Ramp Room Design:
Some Insight:
I thought of using Steel Studs / Galvanized (I can get them cheap / and they are easy to work with for me) Though im sure wood is easily usable. (they generally weigh the same / have same strength) Also why I thought to go with Unistrut / Galvanized.
For outer paneling I thought of aluminum siding though possible a cheaper solution? Cloth / epoxy / resin?
Also each wall will easily be able to be lifted / stored in the trailer for storage. (Passenger Side Wall in trailer.)
For the Ladder being on the side of the trailer im thinking about moving it to the front possible? and having a luggage rack added as well? may keep it on the side though and move it to the drive side other than shown on the passenger.
Thanks again for taking a look! Please let me know what you think. Agian I am trying to keep it simple / light / cheap for me and anyone else.
