Still learning my way around the forum. This is my marker for the build I'll be working on.
Starting with figuring out how to post pics. :)

Ok...1st attempt.114006


This is a 77 Travel Trailer I torn down a few years ago for future use. I realize most use a single axle, but I plan on making room for my ATV in the front. As I work the design to make me happy and still function as a trailer I'll post here. Love comments and critiques. If I seem upset by a comment or post, you may have read it wrong. :thinking: I really don't get upset. I'm just not a great writer. :lol:

48Dodger,
That seems like a real good base to get a start with. I'm always interested in the toy hauler/camper combos. Keep the pictures coming.
Take care,
Tom

This is my placement drawing. Seems like a safe design, maintaining tongue weight.

The deck is roughly 15' 4" x 7' 9".....seems I could rework it to 8 foot and sleep side to side instead of front to back.
