Tardis Camper - Letting Our Geek Flag Fly

[Abaker50]

Here's an idea.... if you want it to look like the actual tardis why not make it as if the tardis is on its side like it's fallen over.
That way the tardis roof is more streamlined and you could make it more in proportion....just thinking

Wow - that's a great idea.

When I posted this, DH & I were in agreement that this is what we were going to do. We found some more information & are now rethinking it.

I'll let you know what we decide. I'm sure it will be at least as geeky, 'cause that's how we roll.

Thanks for the encouragement, though.

Well, there is already a trailer on here called "Tearscape One" so that's been used
But it's true; bow ties are cool.

One other thing to think about. It looks like you planned it for a family. You can always make more of a Foamie Standie, that has a big door. just model the Door like the call box with the graphics of the Tardiss. hehe Just thinking out loud to myself and anyone close to me.

OK - DH & I discussed many lovely classic trailer designs. We have agreed upon a pretty simple design that looks like Dr Who's Time machine. That's pretty much how things go around here.

Anyway, it will be a 6' x 10' Foamie, built on an aluminum chassis & we're working on ways to make it sturdy, waterproof and collapsible. Should be interesting.

Here's my attempt at Sketchup. The Tardis details will be paint & automotive decals, rather than structural.







The chassis shown here is a snowmobile trailer, which is one of our possibilities.

After the 1st, we'll get the tow hitch for the Jeep, buy our chassis and get started. Wish us luck - we'll need it.

Gettin' my geek on,
Andrea

I love it!
