Greetings from Oregon ...

[schaney]

Hi, my name is Scott Chaney. I have a company called Compact Camping Concepts. I build compact, lightweight alternatives to traditional tent trailers. I’m located in Corvallis, Oregon. I’ve been working on some ideas for a DIY plywood/epoxy trailer box and a fold-out trailer top tent.

I wanted to test the waters and see if DIY tent trailer design discussions where welcome here and people with “commercial” interests??

hi and welcome. From what I see anyone is welcome here. It will depend on if you get answers or not to your questions. There may come a thread to see how long it takes to convert you to teardrops!

to the playground Scott. We do in fact have a "For Sale" section and a Teardrop Manufacture section. Look through the site and Enjoy. Expect to be converted.

You didn't need to "convert" me, I already like Teardrops too. From my kayak/canoe building experience, I've been toying with a starburst woodstrip side design. Although I would do a pop-up roof style like the old KampMasters.

Welcome to the forum Scott from another Oregonian. I am southwest of Grants Pass in the Cave Junction area. Enjoy! Jerry

wait until you see Jerry's set up. It is so cool and talk about people turning there heads to see. His bike is awesome.

Welcome Scott,

Got any pictures of what you build?

Hope you enjoy it here, but let me warn you it can be addictive.

This is a trailer we currently build and sell parts for DIY'ers


This is a prototype of our new "Woody" model and trailer top tent systems


I'll be posting more details and picture of the Woody in the Design forum shortly.

Scott,

What does something like that run, say the woody version?

Cool design, I hope you post more pics in ths Members Design forum, because I would like to see what he inside looks like.

Mike,

The a ready-to-roll diamond plate with trailer top tent trailers start at $2299.00. You can also get a tent unit separately and build your own. I have not priced the Woody trailer out yet, but it initially looks like $4000 - $5000 for a ready-to-roll trailer and $2200 - $2500 for materials to build your own.

See Non-traditional design for a post on the Woody.
